Rumours are rife that Simon Cowell’s latest prodigy Shaheen Jafargholi is to support Leona Lewis when she embarks on her world tour next year. The 14-date tour is believed to begin in the U.K in mid 2010 before moving on to a range of countries across the world. Leona’s smash hit “Bleeding Love” hit the number one spot in over 30 different countries winning her an army of new fans across the globe.

The common link between Shaheen and Leona is Simon Cowell. He championed Leona on the third series of X Factor in 2006, which she went on to win, and plotted her steady rise to global superstardom.

Despite not winning the Britain’s Got Talent series this year, Cowell has high hopes for the youngster from Swansea. He shot to fame earlier this year when he performed the Michael Jackson hit “Who’s Loving You?” on the hit ITV1 talent show. Shaheen was able to repeat this performance on the world stage as he was invited to perform at Michael Jackson’s memorial concert.

Very few details have been released regarding Leona’s 2010 tour except there is expected to be a Garden of Eden theme and Leon’s record company have been reported as saying “money is no object.” Fans of the Hackney singer can look forward to a blistering tour then, possibly with the added bonus of miniature singing sensation Shaheen.

If you’re hoping to catch Leona when she hits your town, ensure you make the most of the occasion and arrive in a chauffeur driven limo.

Limos to Take That Concert Targeted

Metropolitan Police Service pounced on suspect limousines as they took transported fans to the  Take That concert in Wembley.

The stretch limousines were stopped and taken to an inspection site in Carey Way, Wembley, Middlesex where officers, working together with VOSA (Vehicle and Operator Services Agency), carried out comprehensivemechanical examinations on the different types of limos.

Only two left with a clean bill of health, of the twelve limos stopped by traffic officers last Friday.

At the same time relevant checks were made on the drivers. One limo driver was arrested and later charged for driving whilst disqualified.

Another limo was seized, as the driver was not qualified to drive a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) for hire and reward. In addition there were two driver’s hours offences detected, which resulted in a £200 Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) issued by VOSA.

A further five immediate PG9’s (prohibition notices) were issued for dangerous offences and one limo received a delayed PG9 for a maintenance matter, with two drivers receiving verbal warnings for minor infractions.

The UK limousine industry has been cleaned up recently by, both the operators and VOSA who are working with the Police.
