Tulisa's death threats

Tulisa Contostavlos has revealed in today's Sun newspaper, that she still receives death threats since becoming a judge and mentor on the talent show, 'The X Factor'.

Messages such as 'I'm gonna hunt you down and kill you' have been received by Contostavlos, but her tough council estate upbringing has helped her brush them off.

The N-Dubz star said: "I've always had abuse - since the age of 17 - so I've been trained for it. It's nothing to me. If anything it's gotten a bit more light-hearted since I've been on the show. N-Dubz fans are a bit fiestier. It used to be, 'I'm gonna slice your throat and you're a whore.' Now it's more like, 'You're s**t, I hate you'."

Contostavlos added: "You still get the whole, 'I'm gonna hunt you down and kill you'. But I'll message them back and go, 'Bring it on, bitch'. That s**t doesn't bother me."
