Lewis, who won the UK’s X-Factor in 2006, is turning to rap and recently told fans, “I could probably go up against Nicki Minaj now. I’m actually that good, so I’m coming for you Nicki! London style MCing.”

Lewis is best known for ballads, like the theme song from Avatar. Her new album, “Glassheart,” will be released on October 15.
