Leona is an animal lover, that's why she took her cute dog Misty to this shoot!

Top international singer Leona Lewis is backing the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) in a new campaign launched today.

Speaking on behalf of the WSPA, a charity that is trying to end some of the most appalling acts of animal cruelty, Leona tells us why the animals in the world need us!

In this exclusive video filmed at a recent photo shoot at the Sony Music offices in London, Leona gives an insight into her new album, whether she watches the X Factor, and what the future holds for her, as well as pledging her support for the charity's 'Universal Declaration for Animal Welfare' campaign.
