British singing sensation Leona Lewis brought her first Las Vegas residency to an unforgettable close by sharing the spotlight with her young daughter in a heartwarming finale.
A Starry Finale with a Special Guest
The X Factor winner, 40, concluded her run of shows titled A Starry Night at The Venetian Resort in Nevada with a poignant family moment. During the final performance on January 3, 2026, Lewis invited her three-year-old daughter, Carmel Allegra, onto the stage. The toddler, whom she shares with husband Dennis Jauch, danced in a white dress as her mother sang.
Lewis later shared a clip of the special event on Instagram, reflecting on its significance. "Our final Starry Night made even more special by having my baby girl come up on stage and sing with me," she wrote. "I will never forget this moment, this incredible experience, my very first Las Vegas residency all made possible because of each and every person that helped bring this dream to life."
Family and Team at the Heart of the Success
The residency, which ran from November 1, 2025, to January 3, 2026, was very much a family affair. Lewis's husband, dancer and choreographer Dennis Jauch, served as the show's creative director. The couple first met in 2010 on Lewis's Labyrinth tour and married in Tuscany in July 2019.
In her heartfelt social media post, Leona extended gratitude to her entire team, including musical director Alex MontaQue, her manager, and the Voltaire team. She described the journey as "all encompassing" with "many challenges," but emphasised that the support system helped create a show that "truly uplifted people and spread so much love."
A Return to Music and What's Next
The Las Vegas engagement marked a significant return to the spotlight for Lewis, whose last studio album was released in 2015. However, fans can look forward to new material soon. In an interview with The Sun just before Christmas, the singer confirmed she has been in the studio working on new music.
"I've actually been in and out of the studio for the past couple of years. It's been a real labour of love and I'm planning to share music next year," she revealed. This upcoming record will be her first in over a decade, following her five-album career that began with the global phenomenon Spirit in 2007.
Lewis concluded her Instagram reflections by thanking her fans for the "life changing memories" and teasing future plans: "I can't wait to share what's next…"
