Leona Lewis has claimed that Miley Cyrus and Rihanna are setting a bad example for kids by making the explicit twerking dance popular.

The 28-year-old British singer has called on parents to control what videos their kids are watching on television and condemned her music rivals saying, "Being sexual and in your face is not great for girls who are quite young", the Mirror reported.

The 'Bleeding Love' singer added that the 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker and the 'Unfaithful' singer are just "expressing themselves how they want to" but they might regret it one day.
