Leigh-Anne to perform in The Lion King in Concert at London’s Royal Albert Hall

In celebration of the launch of the Disney x Balmain: The Lion King Collection, Leigh-Anne’s performance will be part of a 30th anniversary screening of The Lion King, with Hans Zimmer’s Academy Award-winning score for the animated classic performed by the Chineke! Orchestra and London Community Gospel Choir, conducted by Sarah Hicks.

“The Lion King has a special place in people’s hearts across generations. I adored the film while growing up, so I’m excited to play a small part in this special collaboration between Disney and Balmain to celebrate the 30th Anniversary. It’s a beautiful and powerful celebration of fashion, culture and heritage,” said Leigh-Anne.
