Tulisa Defends Caroline Flack Over 'Cougar' Label

Caroline Flack over her relationship with One Direction's N-Dubzstar also said she'd learned not to let the rivalry between judges continue when the cameras stopped rolling.

"You don't need to bring it backstage," she stated. "Obviously with me and Kelly, there were times when it went backstage, and we wouldn't talk, which was unfortunate. It didn't bother me though."

Meanwhile Tulisa's former BF and bandmate Fazer has said that N-Dubz are unlikely to reform next year - as some had expected - and has hinted that the end of 2014 is the earliest he, Tulisa and Dappy could get back together.

He told the Daily Star: "I couldn't reform the band now. I've signed an international deal that involves me going to Australia at the end of next year when the new album's out, then New Zealand, Japan, America.

"Hopefully at the end of 2014 I'd like to speak about reforming the band."
