I saw this wonderful lady perform at The Bridge Hotel in Greenford, on Saturday 27th July.Levena has a beautiful voice. I feel so honoured to have been in her presence. A fantastic evening of fabulous songs from Whitney Houston, followed by some wonderful Motown songs. A truly magical evening. Five stars from me!
An excellent tribute, you looked and sounded fantastic. I’ve watched you perform at smaller venue and yesterday as part of a tribute at a theatre- the performance in the way you sing, interact with the audience to the clothes you where we’re on ???????? ???????? I would highly highly recommend you. Each time we have seen you perform the people love it, they’re up and dancing.
