'My first show in 18 months!' Tulisa Contostavlos strips down to jewelled bra and shorts for comeback gig at G-A-Y



It's the moment she had been waiting months for.
And on Saturday night Tulisa Contostavlos finally made her return to the stage as she performed for a heaving crowd at London's G-A-Y at Heaven.
The singer has had a difficult year, so was glad to put it all behind her and mark her musical comeback in spectacular style.

The 26-year-old certainly made a statement as she arrived on stage in a jewelled bra and tiny shorts, that showed off her shapely legs and toned torso.
Both her garments featured heavy embellishment, complementing her equally glitzy pointed ankle boots in a pewter shade.
The shorts - that were cut in a knicker style - made her slender pins, covered in fishnet tights, look even longer.
During her energetic set, Tulisa turned around to her crowd to reveal the back of the bra top, which had a leopard print panel, a print she is favouring at the moment.

The stunning star, whose new single Living Without You is released in early December, finished her on-stage look with her raven tresses tumbling down over her shoulders in a glamorous, curly style.
The former N-Dubz star was flanked by handsome male dancers in open white shirts as she worked her way across the stage.
Bravely, the musician even let them lift her up high as part of her high-octane dance routine.
The excited former X Factor star had happily tweeted her fans before the gig, sharing her anticipation ahead of her set.
Ole! At one point, a large red sheet appeared on stage, giving Tulisa a bullfighter effect as she got hands-on with one of her male backing dancers

Professional: She may have had a year and a half off from performing, but she appeared to pick it up right where she left off

'My first show in 18 months!' Tulisa had tweeted before the gig, sharing her excitement at her welcome return to the stage

'My first show in 18months #TONIGHT! I'm so excited! G-A-Y You ready?!! #TulisaAtGAY,' she wrote on Twitter.
Tulisa has made no secret of her personal struggles in recent times. She's had a tumultuous few years after her sex tape was leaked online as well as being accused of brokering a cocaine deal, claims which sensationally collapsed in court this summer.
And her life changed rather a lot when she ended her career on the ITV talent show, after having it initially propel her to super-stardom, making her a household name.

But despite her difficult time, Tulisa is thankful her time out of the limelight.
'I finally feel like I know what I want, what I like, what I want to portray, what I'm about,' she explained on a behind-the-scenes video from the making of Living Without You.
She also spoke openly about her new image, and how she's embarking on a new phase of her life.
'It was all about portraying that to my fans, showing them who the grown-up me is. Everyone changes and I guess the biggest fear is people seeing me in this light in a video like this and saying, "Oh my God she's changed so much, she's nothing like the old Tulisa".'

Hands in the air! The Young hitmaker made sure to get everyone involved
She went on: 'But everyone changes and grows. I'm 26 now. When I first stepped into the spotlight, the first commercial public video recognition for me was when I was 17.'
Indeed, the pop star looked overwhelmed at the reception she got following her performance, as she was given a huge bouquet of flowers. 
Also performing at the Charing Cross venue on Saturday were X Factor rejects Stevi Ritchie and Only The Young, both of whom were voted out of the competition last weekend.

Divisive contestant Stevi lapped up the attention on the night, and proudly posted a picture of himself with his G-A-Y co-star Tulisa after the gig.
'Me and the very gorgeous @officialtulisa at G-A-Y london,' he wrote along with the snap.
He added: 'Tulisa @officialtulisa you are awesome sooooo nice meeting you and thank you for lovely chat thank you follow me when you can much love.'
Stevi, who was Simon Cowell's act, left The X Factor on last Sunday night's results show, after failing to win the sing-off against Andrea Faustini.

But he's still enjoying his heightened levels of fame, and made sure everybody at the London nightclub knew it as he started his short set sat upon a gold and red throne.
Louis Walsh's band Only The Young, who left on the Saturday night after receiving the fewest votes from the public, also performed at G-A-Y, looking decidedly more casual than Tulisa.
Plenty of their fans had turned up to see them perform: the band retweeted several messages from their supporters who had made it on the night.
