American Idol star Jordin Sparks has revealed that Leona Lewis's kindness almost made her cry at VH1 Divas Live concert. Jordin said that she was emotional after finding a message from the X Factor winner in her dressing room.

She told Digital Spy: "Leona actually wrote me a personalised card saying it was an honour to be going onstage with me, which was just so, so sweet.

"I really wasn't expecting it and she almost had me in tears!

"You guys have a really, really good girl in Leona."

The American singer added that she is a fan of Leona's first single 'Happy' from her new album 'Echo'.

She said: "I love the lyrics and you can definitely hear that Ryan Tedder worked on the music.

"The way Leona performs it is just amazing."

She added: "I love everything that Leona does though - I'd listen to her sing the phonebook."

Leona has said: "I titled my album `Echo', since an echo describes a big, organic sound."

Ryan Tedder who wrote 'Happy' also produced her huge hit, 'Bleeding Love'.

Describing the song, Leona said: "It's a contradiction of song because, yes, it's named `Happy,' but the song's kind of dark, a bit sad, somber."

Leona's new album is due to released on November 17.
