Tween sensation Justin Bieber’s debut album, “My World,” could shift 100,000 copies while “American Idol” winner Kris Allen may see his debut effort move approximately 90,000 copies. Rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures seems on track to sell about 75,000 with its first effort and Leona Lewis’ second album, “Echo,” may sell 50,000 to 60,000, as will Paul McCartney’s new live set “Good Evening New York City.”

Leona Lewis Grateful Fan Attack Wasn’t Worse

Leona Lewis is grateful an attack with a crazy fan at a London book signing this month didn’t turn deadly.
The singing sensation was left in shock after a fan reportedly lashed out at her during a book signing session in London.

Peter Kowalczyk, 29, the emotionally unstable singer accused of punching the star, was arrested at the scene, and later sectioned under the Mental Health Act.

Despite canceling several promotional appearances following the incident, Leona is eager to put the ordeal behind her.

“It could have been worse. I’m still alive, it’s just something you have to deal with when you have fame and the positives far outweigh the negatives. I don’t like to dwell on the negatives, I’m a very positive person.”

Leona is as loyal as she is positive; the songbird turned down the chance to make out with Chace Crawford.

The X Factor winner, 24, and the Gossip Girl star appeared together in her “I Will Be” video last year, but Leona didn’t want to upset her longtime boyfriend Lou Al-Chamaa by smooching with the hunk.

“They wanted me and Chace to kiss. But I said no way. I’d just have been too embarrassed, he’s my friend! He’s so beautiful, I mean, look at him – he could be a girl. He’d be a really pretty girl,” she laughed.

“But I just don’t think of him like that. And it wouldn’t be fair to Lou to kiss other guys.”

We wish Leona all the best as she moves on from this unfortunate incident.

Leona Lewis Punched In The Head At London Book Signing

Leona Lewis was in middle of doing a book signing on Wednesday in London for her autobiography Dreams when a guy attached her.

According to a rep, “She was doing a signing to launch her new book. Hundreds of fans had been queuing since last night. A guy came up and punched her to the side of the head. She is absolutely gutted she did not get the signings finished.”

Leona suffered bruising on the side of her head and was left quite shaken by the incident.

Police arrested the man, however no information as to a motive has been released.

Leona Lewis ‘Echo’ Tracklist Revealed

Leona Lewis sophomore set, “Echo,” hits stores this November 17th. “I titled my album ‘ECHO’, since an echo describes a big, organic sound. I’m in the midst of the recording process, working with incredible songwriters and producers, and my music has really evolved. It’s so exciting to create something new,” Leona said. The debut single, “Happy” was written by Ryan Tedder of the group One Republic. Tedder also produced her monster hit, “Bleeding Love”. “It’s a contradiction of song because, yes, it’s named ‘Happy,’ but the song’s kind of dark, a bit sad, somber,” she said.

The album includes production and songwriting from Justin Timberlake, Claude Kelly, Ryan Tedder, Max Martin, and Ne-Yo. “In my songs I want people to go on a journey, and (to get to) happiness, you go through a lot of pain and sadness to get there sometimes and that’s what we wanted to convey on the song,” she added.

Track Listing:

1. Happy
2. I Got You
3. Can’t Breathe
4. Brave
5. Outta My Head
6. My Hands
7. Love Letter
8. Broken
9. Naked
10. Stop Crying Your Heart Out
11. Don’t Let Me Down
