Leona Lewis has revealed herself as the world's least likely raver, claiming she is a big fan of clubbing and that her love for club culture has influenced her new album.

The singer returns this week with new single 'Trouble', which is currently sitting at No.7 on the iTunes chart, and third album Glassheart, which is released next week. The X Factor winner has spoken of her wild side in a new interview with The Sun newspaper - and revealed an unlikely love for Radiohead.

"I love a rave," said the chart topper to the tabloid. "I was out last night... I'm the first of my mates to hit the dancefloor and drag everyone else on. I'm always throwing shapes."

Speaking of her musical influences, she cites everyone from Skrillex to Thom Yorke as her favourite artists, adding: "I love a bit of dubstep, I love Skrillex. It's proper dirty dubstep. But I like everything from Justin Bieber to Radiohead. I'm all over the place."

She also claims that her varied, occasionally alternative, taste in music had greatly influenced her new album and she felt at home performing darker material. "It's very different. I think the darker, dubstep thing works with my voice and I wanted to go there."
