TULISA WATCH

N-Dubz’ Fazer gives fans Tulisa Contoslavlos update after her I’m A Celebrity final snub and surprise Coming Out cameo

Tulisa's altered appearance saw her targeted by cruel trolls during her time on the show

MUCH mystery has surrounded the state of mind of I’m a Celebrity’s Tulisa Contoslavlos, after she became “overwhelmed” and snubbed the show’s final.

The N-Dubz singer who was the third star voted out of the jungle, jetted back to the UK early, instead of standing by to watch winner Danny Jones being crowned King, as is expected.

The 36-year-old also deleted all traces of her I’m a Celebrity experience from her social media, in a move that left many of her fans concerned.

Insiders claim that she left Australia after struggling with her mental health, while other sources suggest that she fell out with her social media team who'd taken charge of her account while she was in the jungle.

But now her former bandmate, Richard Rawson, known by the stage Fazer, 37, insists that his old friend is just fine.

He said: “'She's good. She's happy, she's happy to be home. She's getting ready for Christmas,  ordering her turkey and stuff so all good.”

Former hip hop star Fazer who is now a dad of four, confessed he switched off as soon as Tulisa left the jungle, but felt she came across favorably on the reality show.

He told the There was no need for me to be watching this anymore. Now my band member's not in it anymore it's not gonna interest me as much!”

“I think she held herself well and she came across really genuine, which was really nice to see because I feel like the public managed to see that as well.”

“They saw her as her authentic self, not a perception of what they may have had in their heads.”

During her time in the jungle, Tulisa’s appearance was criticized by trolls, who hadn’t realised that she suffered form the neurological condition, Bells Palsy, which causes temporary facial paralysis.

The condition which affected her over a twelve year period, caused the star to resort to facial fillers, to help even out the change in her appearance.

But Fazer muses that trolls are simply a side effect of fame.  He says:

People are always gonna say something,' he mused. 'People that haven't had something like that wouldn't understand anyway.

'All credit to her for speaking about it and giving her truth. I respect that.' 

Hip hop trio N-Dubz consisted of Tulisa, her cousin Dappy and his friend Fazer.

They formed as teenagers in 2007 and won the MOBO award that year for best newcomers.

Their debut album, Uncle B went double platinum which sparked four UK top 40 singles.

But despite having retired from the spotlight, Fazer who dated Tulisa from 2010-2012, insists he would not be tempted by any offers to enter the jungle himself.

'I'm from London,' he laughs. 'I don't like spiders or creepy crawlies. I'm not for eating any of these weird things.

'I saw Melvin and Oti put in those helmets and they threw these massive spiders in and even just watching it set me off. I was like, no, no, no, no! 

'I think the only show I would do is with Bear Grylls because it's a bit more gritty and reality driven.

Indeed despite fleeing Australia, Tulisa made a surprise cameo in ITV's I'm a Celebrity Coming Out show, where she appeared via video message.

In the clip, she said: "Hello everybody, I am so proud of you all, you all absolutely smashed it.

"Go and eat into oblivion!
