We’re actually starting to get a little bit excited to see how the video for Leona Lewis’s cover of Avril Lavigne’s song, I Will Be is going to turn out. The song will be Leona’s 3rd U.S. single off of her album Spirit. The video, which was shot in New York City in December, stars hot Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford. It isn’t out yet but the press is sure buzzing about it still! Apparently, Leona thinks that Chace is “super talented” and calls him “one of the nicest people I’ve met.” In fact, we’ll just post for you the entire section in Leona’s blog post in which she talks about making the video for “I Will Be”. Ready? Here goes:
I also sang ‘I Will Be’ on Letterman which was a treat for me and then I shot the video for the song in the same week. I can’t wait for you to see it, it’s so different from my previous videos. I got to shoot again with one of my favourite directors, Melina who I luv and I’m really proud of what we’ve created. I also got to work with Chace Crawford, who is one of the nicest people I’ve met, super talented and he’s in one of my new fave series’ Gossip Girl.
Gossip Girl is one of OUR favorite TV series and “I Will Be” is one of our favorite Avril songs AND we think that Leona is gorgeous and like what we’ve heard from her so far, so let’s hurry up and get that video out!! Oh, and click here to check out Leona singing the song on The Late Show with David Letterman.
