Leona Lewis is in talks to sing for America's President elect Barack Obama.

The former winner of The X Factor might be taking to the stage at a special concert to mark Obama's inauguration, reports The Sun.

If she does sign up, the Bleeding Love singer would join the likes of Jay-Z and Beyonce at the show in Washington DC on January 20.

A source said: "Various inquiries have been made to Leona's people about her availability on January 20.

"She's had such a successful past year that joining in the festivities in Washington would be the icing on the cake for her."

The insider said Leona's team "are going through her diary at the moment", adding: "They're certainly not averse to shifting things around to accommodate for any celebrations for Obama."
