Leona Lewis hires MJ’s dance guru for world tourLondon, July 18 : Brit singer Leona Lewis has teamed up with late Michael Jackson’s dance guru Travis Payne, for a spectacular 14-month world tour.

Lewis, 24, has been finalising the details of the elaborate gigs in between recording sessions for her second album in Los Angeles, and her record label boss, Simon Cowell, has taken special interest in the arrangements for the shows.

Payne, who choreographed Jacko’s ‘This Is It’ shows, will be assisting her with her moves, and discussions have been held with Franco Dragone, the creative director of some of Celine Dion’s biggest gigs.

“It’s a case of hiring the best talent in the business at any cost to make sure the concerts will be one of the talking points of next year,” the Sun quoted a source as saying. (ANI)
