The X Factor winner’s debut album ‘Spirit’, released in November 2007 in the UK and around the world in early 2008, was hugely successful and has gone platinum in 10 countries including the UK and the US - a source told the Sun that Leona’s recent cover of Snow Patrol’s ‘Run’ is her favourite song to date and she wants to go in that direction for the follow-up.

The source explained: “Leona would love to work with Coldplay and knows [frontman] Chris Martin likes her voice.

“She would love to sing a duet with him. If not, maybe he could write a song for her.

The source added that Chris will probably be up for it too: “Chris is open to all kinds of music and isn’t at all snobby about what some see as cheesy pop.”
