Leona Lewis & Dennis Jauch: NYC Stroll

Leona Lewis takes a stroll around Columbus Circle with boyfriend Dennis Jauch on Monday (September 12) in New York City.

The 26-year-old British singer flew in from London, where she attended the GQ Men of the Year Awards last week.

Leona recently told Rollacoaster that she doesn’t mind being labeled “boring.”

“It doesn’t bother me. I’d rather be seen like that than a harsh, brash person,” she told the mag.

As for how she’s changed since wining The X Factor in 2006, “I’ve grown as a performer, as a singer, everything.”

“I was in that weird teenage-adult stage for a long time – making decisions that perhaps weren’t right, but I’ve realized in the last couple of years that I have grown up and I know myself so much more,” she explained.
