Or was her upbringing more privileged than she likes to make out? What we do know is this — Tulisa was born Tula Paulinea Contostavlos in to musical parents, her mum a singer in Eighties band Jeep, her dad a keyboardist with Mungo Jerry.
Her parents separated when Tulisa was just nine, and by the age of 11 she became the primary carer for her mother, who had been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. Given this responsibility, along with the pressures of growing up in a tough Camden neighbourhood, it's perhaps not surprising Tulisa struggled — eating disorders, abusive relationships with older men and self-harming all figure in her story.
After dropping out of one school she tried to settle at Haverstock comprehensive, the same school attended by the Miliband brothers, although if her tales are to be believed her time there included drug use and minor theft while running with the wrong crowd.
Yet even Plato admitted that Tulisa would often turn up to see him with cuts on her face — the result of bullying over her mum's condition. And whatever the truth about her material wealth, there seems little disputing that Tulisa's teenage years were far from fun. She's talked of more than one failed suicide attempt, whereas her experience looking after her mother was captured in the moving television documentary Tulisa: My Mum And Me. Yet the show proved a hit, viewers touched by the story but also warming to Tulisa as a character who had triumphed over adversity.
In fact, were she an X Factor contestant, rather than a judge, the show would no doubt milk her life story, while a teary, string-drenched ballad played in the background.
