Tulisa has had 10 cysts in total removed from the inside of her mouth in the last few months, after constantly feeling like her 'cheek was on fire' and suffering from the sensation of ants crawling in her face.
Rising to fame in the mid-2000s with the London hip-hop group, N-Dubz, made up of herself, her cousin Dappy and his best friend Fazer , Tulisa parted ways with them in 2011. It was then she landed the coveted role of X-Factor judge at the age of 22 and remains the youngest judge in the show’s history. Simon Cowell hired her to replace Cheryl Cole and Tulisa went on to discover Little Mix, who have gone on to become one of the most successful girl groups in history.
However, her X-Factor success was tainted by scandal as a sex tape featuring the star emerged online, leaked by her ex-boyfriend which she has since said made her feel like her ‘world was ending’. A year later she quit the X-Factor and told Olivia Attwood’s podcast last month: ‘Going back on X factor it felt like virtual rape. I felt judged, disgusted, and ashamed.
I just winged it like I had from the second I got in there but this time I was winging it with my own emotions, just trying to keep my head above water. ‘I just became miserable by the end of that second year, I wasn’t going to do the show again and they could already see where it was going and they weren’t going to hire me again but then by that point, I’d already said I can’t do this.

I just felt all these eyes on me and it reminded me of what happened. I needed time to go away and think about what happened.’ After quitting the X-Factor in 2013, Tulisa was caught up in a drugs scandal when she was arrested on suspicion of supplying class-A drugs .
But it was, in fact, part of a sting operation by the News of the World’s notorious undercover reporter, Mazher Mahmood, otherwise known as the Fake Sheik. He claimed she had organised a deal to sell him drugs while he was posing as a wealthy film producer. The case went to court and Mahmood was accused of tampering with evidence and the case against Tulisa collapsed.
