SEE VIDEO Leona Lewis: I’m not brave enough to pose nude

X Factor star says she won't be stripping off for charity

Leona Lewis has revealed that she'll never pose naked - even for a good cause.

The X Factor winner, 22, who gave a fantastic guest performance on Saturday night's show, admires fellow vegetarian Alicia Silverstone who stripped off to promote animal rights charity PETA, but she won't be following her lead.

‘I think it’s a strong statement, and I really respect it,’ Leona admits.

‘I would love to do something like that, but I just don’t think I could pose nude, because I’m not that brave.’

But Simon Cowell's protégée insists that while she may not be ditching her clothes any time soon, she's not a wet blanket.

'People think I'm shy because I'm not loud,' she tells The Daily Telegraph.

'But that's just me. I do have self confidence.'

Leona's new single is out today.
