Tulisa rubbishes all the rumours

X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos has rubbished speculation about sleeping problems and weight loss due to show stress.

Speaking to a newspaper listings guide, the 23-year-old revealed she jokes with her X Factor colleagues about having a breakdown.


“When anyone asks me how I am, I go:

‘Apparently I'm having a breakdown.’ That's a joke,” she said.

She added: “I was in Tesco and saw this headline saying: ‘Tulisa can't take it anymore!’ But here I am, strolling around the supermarket.

“Another story said my boyfriend was going to break up with me before Christmas. It's all made up.”

Having mentored Little Mix to the X Factor final, Tulisa is unsure as to whether she will – or even could – go on to manage the foursome.

She said: “I think I can be involved but I don't think I'm allowed to manage them. I don't have any experience.

“I'll stay as their mentor but they'll have a manager who's been doing his stuff for 20 years.

“Louis obviously managed Girls Aloud, but I think he's busy enough with Jedward!”

On the subject of the allegations of bullying made against X Factor reject Misha B, Tulisa was typically unrepentant.

Asked whether she wished she’d had a quiet word with Misha away from the cameras, she said: “I never go back on my actions.

“For me it's about what happens behind the scenes as well as on stage.

“I wasn't lying. It was affecting one of my acts and the week something was said it stopped.

“I think even from Misha's point of view it is something she might not have realised she was doing.

“We had a talk and I think she's a lovely girl.”
