Tulisa has showed off her new lips after getting some cosmetic work.
The 36-year-old N-Dubz singer is reportedly heading into the Jungle as a campmate on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity. If true, she’ll soon be ditching her glamourous lifestyle for campfires, creepy crawlies and rice and beans.
So it’s understandable that the hitmaker wanted to get a pampering ahead of her alleged stint. Tulisa took to her Instagram Stories on Monday (November 4) to reveal that she’s had the outline of her lips tattooed.

The pop star’s lips hadn’t quite healed from the procedure yet as they were looking pretty swollen. She showed off the results of her procedure and wrote: “I tatted the lips to match the brows, couldn’t help myself.”
She explained: “They are swollen but they will go down & the colour will tone down.” Tulisa plugged the clinic, based in Altrincham, Cheshire, adding: “@cosmetic_tattoo_clinic loving this & brows have held sooooo well.”
Tulisa recently addressed rumours of getting plastic surgery and revealed her secret health battle. The Young singer has always kept herself quiet on the subject, believing that the media should not need to know about her life.
She discussed it on Olivia Attwood’s So Wrong, It’s Right podcast, where Love Island star Olivia asked Tulisa on what her relationship was like with the press, including the speculation of cosmetic procedures.
“I’ve never gone into it before,” Tulisa said as she spoke with the Love Island star. “To be fair, I hadn’t had any surgery up until – confession – recently.
“And all the time before, there was no surgery – it was only fillers, and other issues that I had,” she explained. She explained the change in appearance came down to a health condition she had never spoke about until now.
“When I was about 24, I had my first Bell’s palsy attack, I was sat at home and I had this massive burst inflammation,” she recalled. She went on to share a snap of what the inflammation looked like with Olivia, leaving her stunned, only able to say the word: “S**t.”
Bell’s palsy is described by the NHS as being a neurological condition that can cause the face to become temporarily paralysed. While there is treatment for the condition, including steroids, patient can suffer attacks multiple times.
Tulisa admitted that she was given steroid injections by doctors after her first attack, but this soon led to the left side of her face drooping. She was left so embarrassed and self-conscious about her appearance, she revealed she did not leave the house for seven months.
