Leona Lewis’s chauffeur had the wool well and truly pulled over his eyes this weekend after two dedicated fans of the star managed to convince the singer’s driver that they were friends of Leona’s and needed to be let into the back of the luxury car.

The duo must have done a pretty impressive job of twisting the chauffeurs arm, as he agreed to let them in the back of the limo to wait for Leona to finish her performance at the London’s G-A-Y club over the weekend.

However the former X Factor winner had quite a shock when she came off stage and hopped in the back of her waiting chauffeur driven car, only to find two strangers sitting inside. Luckily the 26-year-old Bleeding Love singer took the incident in her stride and instead of throwing a hissy fit and demanding her security remove the fans immediately, Leona politely signed autographs for the pair, before they left the limo of their own accord.

It was a busy weekend for Leona Lewis, not only did she perform live at the Central London nightclub G-A-Y, she also appeared on the new ITV gameshow Red or Black, debuting her new look which is said to have cost £100,000 and created by Kylie Minogue stylist, William Baker. The Ant and Dec presented game show is a new project for Leona’s mentor, Simon Cowell, which explains her appearance of the first show on Saturday night which succeeded in pulling in over 6 million viewers.
