Leona Lewis says she is a "good diva".

The British singer, who has a reputation for being one of the nicest people in pop, says she only has the good characteristics of a diva - which includes having a big voice.

She said: "The term 'diva' has such a negative connotation, but I see myself as a kind of good diva. I'm a next-door diva."

The biggest things I've bought are a house and my two cars. One of the cars is a Mini Cooper. But in Los Angeles I always drive a Hybrid Toyota Prius which is very environmentally friendly.

To further prove her "good diva" credentials, Leona insists she doesn't make extravagant demands or make expensive purchases like many of her pop star contemporaries.

'Happy' singer Leona - who spent several months recording her new album 'Echo' in Los Angeles - added in an interview with Petra magazine: "The biggest things I've bought are a house and my two cars. One of the cars is a Mini Cooper. But in Los Angeles I always drive a Hybrid Toyota Prius which is very environmentally friendly."

One star famed for her diva-like demands is Mariah Carey who recently revealed her pet dogs Cha Cha and JJ had their own entourage when she shot a recent commercial.

She previously said: "I had my team with me but the pups had a mini entourage of their own, of course! And why wouldn't they? It was a big shoot and even my entourage had an entourage - my stylist had an assistant, my security had extra security.

"The shoot was based on the fact that some people think I'm a demanding diva. I have no idea why people have that impression!"
