The 'Young' singer says she is thrilled to have settled legal action against ex-boyfriend over their sex tape.

Tulisa Contostavlos debuted a new blonde hairstyle during an appearance at London's High Court this morning (12th July).

The 'Young' singer attended court to settle legal action against her ex-boyfriend Justin Edwards.

On Monday (8th July), Justin admitted publishing a sex tape of the pair on the internet earlier this year.

"Mr Edwards has admitted responsibility for publication of the video, apologised for it, and promised not to do it again," a barrister for Tulisa told the court.

Appearing at court today, Tulisa said she was glad that "the truth had come out" over how the intimate footage emerged online.

Tulisa went on to thank her fans for their support in recent months.

"I just want to thank my fans for all their support - with that support I have won this case. This time, Justin messed with the wrong woman," she said.

"I'm just really happy that the truth is out. It's a fresh start for me today after this, and it's my birthday, and now, of course, I'm off to Ibiza."

Asked if she had learned from the tape becoming public, Tulisa said that she planned to "take it" and use it "to make you stronger".

Tulisa is currently preparing to release her debut solo album, which will feature her recent single 'Young'.
