“It could have been worse. I’m still alive,” Leona Lewis says after being attacked at a book signing earlier this month.

“It is 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.”

As reported on Singersroom, Lewis was assaulted by an ex ‘The X-Factor’ contestant who has since been taken into custody for punching the “Bleeding Love” singer in the face shortly after she signed his copy of her book “Dreams”.
