I'm not feeling it today, but overall, of this fear of being on especially TV.' The case was brought against Mahmood after Tulisa was accused of arranging for him to be sold £800 of cocaine by one of her contacts following an elaborate sting for the Sun on Sunday newspaper in May 2013.
During a meeting at the Metropolitan Hotel in London, Mahmood posed as a film producer and plied the popstar with alcohol as they discussed an acting role alongside Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio. As Smith drove the former X Factor judge home to Hertfordshire, she allegedly spoke about a family member who had a drug problem.

'Knowledge Is power and ultimately a blessing because I wouldn't be where I am without it, I wouldn't change a thing. 'I don't think I would have been able to do this unless I was feeling in such a strong content place. So it could only have been now.
It couldn't have been before.' I’m A Celebrity..
