Tulisa reveals shocking results of swollen TATTOOED lips as she treats herself to cosmetic procedure ahead of I'm A Celeb stint

Tulisa has revealed the shocking results of her latest cosmetic procedure ahead of her upcoming appearance on I'm A Celebrity later this month.

The N-Dubz singer, 36, took to her Instagram stories on Monday to share that she has had the outline of her lips tattooed and they were looking pretty swollen.

Showcasing the finished look to her 637,000 followers, the hitmaker penned: 'I tatted the lips to match the brows, couldn't help myself.'

She went on to clarify that they are 'swollen' at the moment but 'they will go down and the colour will tone down'.

Finally, she tagged the clinic, which is based in Altrincham, Cheshire, writing: loving this & brows have held sooooo well'.

It looks like Tulisa will be bringing glamour to the jungle, as she flaunted her already-tattooed eyebrows and long eyelash extensions in the short video.

Earlier in the day, she was seen preparing for the camping experience as she got her nails done for the final time at Skylar Nails in Alderly Edge.

Tulisa has been candid about getting cosmetic enhancements in the past, after raising eyebrows when she showed off an extremely plump pout back in 2014.

During an appearance on Lorraine in 2019 , the star said: 'I went through stages, I had an allergic reaction to something, and then it took me a while to get rid of it.

'I still get fillers in my lips, so it's all about maintaining. I'm happy with it now. That's where you're giving yourself a spruce.'

She also opened up about her lip filler journey on Celebrity Juice in 2016, admitting she was 'happy' with her lips after perfecting a more natural look.

Asked by host Keith Lemon if getting her lips done was a 'good experience' she explained: 'Well I've had my bad experiences with it, but now I like to think I'm alright. We're in a good place.'

As she was praised by team captain Fearne Cotton for being so 'honest' about the procedure, Tulisa quipped: 'Well, it's a bit obvious isn't it...'

Referring to her previous reaction to fillers as 'not fun,' she added: 'I'm very happy now.'

Speaking on Good Morning Britain she added: 'I looked like Finding Nemo... It was like, 'Eurgh, what have I done?'

'Luckily, they were all temporary, so they dissolve, I did actually dissolve some [of the work I had done].'

She added that it hadn't deterred her from having further work done, however, as she explained: 'My lips, I still have to maintain because I like them.'

After relaunching her career by reuniting with N-Dubz last year, singer Tulisa was courted by I'm A Celebrity bosses to take part, after being approached several times in the past .

A source told The Sun that after finding a whole new audience on N-Dubz's reunion tour, Tulisa is hoping to relaunch her TV career, a decade after leaving The X Factor judging panel.

An insider said: 'This year is a decade since she left The X Factor so she felt the time was right to return to the TV spotlight — the amazing reception to the N-Dubz reunion tour really helped build her confidence.

'Crucially for ITV, the breadth of her career means that she will appeal to I'm a Celebrity's wide audience.

'As well as everyone knowing her from The X Factor, her original music fanbase has boomed thanks to the N-Dubz reunion tour.

'TV bosses are particularly excited by the new wealth of fans in the crucial 16 to 24 age range who have discovered Tulisa and the band through TikTok and everyone hopes the deal is signed soon.'

When contacted by MailOnline, a representative for ITV said: 'Any names suggested for I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here ! are just speculation.'

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Tulisa for comment.

Tulisa will reportedly join Coleen Rooney, Maura Higgins as well as longtime soap star Alan Halsall and legendary sportsman Barry McGuigan in popular reality show.

Rounding out the lineup are Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse, Loose Women star Jane Moore, DJ Dean McCullough, Tulisa, radio presenter Melvin Odoom, Reverend Richard Coles and podcast presenter GK Barry.

Stripped of luxuries and creature comforts, stars will have face a string of Bushtucker Trials in a bid to win food for the camp, and only one will leave as the King Or Queen of the Jungle.

After first finding fame as a member of N-Dubz in 2008, Tulisa replaced Cheryl as a judge on The X Factor back in 2011.

She went onto appear on the show for two years, and in her first mentored the group Little Mix, who became the first ever band to win the show.

In May 2022, Tulisa, her cousin Dappy and her ex-boyfriend Fazer reformed N-Dubz, after an 11-year hiatus.

They announced a UK arena tour, which they embarked on in November of that year, and tickets sold out within minutes.

In June 2023, announced their fourth studio album would be called Timeless, and they released it in August.

Timeless follows studio albums Uncle B (2008), Against All Odds (2009), and Love.Live.Life (2010).

Last year, Tulisa revealed she's been celibate for two years after refusing to let herself get too close to any potential partners.

The singer said she's 'courting' but insists she will not sleep with anyone until she's in a monogamous union.

Pop star Tulisa insisted she's letting any friendships take their natural course and will wait to see if anything blossoms into something more special.

During an appearance on The Zeze Millz Show, she admitted: 'I don't date, I court. I have been celibate for the past two years so no sex before monogamy.

'So basically you are courting because you like to build friendships before you start dating, you just don't shag them and you get to know them. I have got friendships that I am building.'

Former X Factor judge Tulisa as had a number of high profile relationships in the past having dated the likes of Cher's music producer David King, multi-millionaire playboy Costas Panayiotou, former The Wanted star Max George, actor Jody Latham, and her N-Dubz bandmate Richard Rawson.
