Leona Lewis is recalling a particular distributing confrontation she once had with a white shop owner in London.

The 35-year-old singer opened up to fans about the moment, in light of the Black Lives Matter movement, revealing that the owner quickly started to hover over her and her father while they were browsing around the store.

“Eventually, she [the shop owner] came up to my dad and I and said, ‘You need to put that stuff down, you’re not allowed to touch it.’ Every other person was picking stuff up, looking at it. I immediately knew what was happening and I asked her, ‘Why? Everyone else is picking stuff up. Why do we have to put stuff down? We’re just looking at it, I’m probably going to buy it.’”

Leona continues, saying that their encounter became so confrontational that the owner threatened to call police and that other customers left the shop because it was so uncomfortable.

“It sparked a rage in me. I started saying, ‘No,I’m not going to put it down, I’m going to buy it. Why are you targeting us?’ [By now it was just] me, this woman, and my dad in the store. And she became really defensive, really agitated, and ran behind the counter. She said she was going to call the police on us if we didn’t leave the store now.’

Leona Lewis is bringing some light and joy to her fans today with an acoustic performance of her hit song “Better in Time.”

Idris Elba takes the stage at 2020 WE Day UK!

The 47-year-old Luther actor attended the event held at The SSE Arena, Wembley on Wednesday (March 4) in London, England.

He was joined by Game of Thrones‘ Gwendoline Christie, racing driver Lewis Hamilton, and singers Leona Lewis (who hosted) and Calum Scott, who performed a duet of “You Are The Reason.”

Of his own experience growing up in London, Idris told the crowd (via Daily Mail), “Happy is my normal. Yes, there was crime. Yes, there was poverty. Yes, there were gangs.”

“Some of the people I grew up with, people I saw around the neighborhood, went down the wrong path, ended up doing the wrong thing,” he continued. “I was different. I was lucky, maybe. I wanted different things. I was an only child by immigrant parents from Sierra Leone, West Africa. And they worked hard for what they had. This way of life taught me the importance of independence and relying on myself for my own success.”

“You are all capable of making an impact so speak out about what matters – whether that is fighting against knife crime, global hunger, housing, education, sexism, combating racism,” he added. “We all need to be conscious about the world we live in because it is our responsibility to make things better together.”
