Tulisa Contostavlos is back in the headlines—this time for a holiday update that had fans talking. The 37-year-old singer shared a series of bikini shots from her sun-soaked getaway, posing in a turquoise two-piece before heading poolside. The look was styled with silver accessories and mirrored sunglasses, a reminder that Tulisa’s fashion instincts are as sharp as ever.
But the images came with more than just summer gloss. In recent interviews, Tulisa has been candid about her private life—revealing she’s ended a three-year stretch of celibacy and has begun opening herself up again to the possibility of love. Speaking on Jaime Laing’s Great Company podcast, she dismissed the idea of making a vow. “It wasn’t that I didn’t want to have sex,” she said. “It was that I didn’t want to with anyone. Finding someone I like is very few and far between.”
Tulisa also stressed that emotional connection comes first. “I can be flirtatious, but I don’t think about having sex with someone until I’ve built something deeper. It takes time,” she explained. Asked if she sees her body as sacred, she didn’t hesitate: “All women are sacred. We should be worshipped more than we are in today’s society. You take on people’s energy when you’re sleeping around—the energy has to be right.”
The singer has spoken before about periods of identifying as asexual, as well as being sapiosexual—drawn to intelligence above appearance. “I can think someone is stunning, but for me attraction means I want to kiss them or be physical. It’s rare.”
Her frankness today contrasts with a turbulent past. At the height of her fame, Tulisa endured a high-profile 2012 court case when a sex tape released by her ex-boyfriend went public. Revenge porn wasn’t illegal at the time, and she later admitted the ordeal left her “judged, disgusting and ashamed.” She has also spoken openly about addiction struggles and two suicide attempts—subjects she’ll cover in full in her forthcoming autobiography Judgement: Love, Trials and Tribulations.
The book, set for release later this year, promises what Tulisa herself calls a “brutally honest” account of her career, scandals, and recovery. For now, though, her turquoise bikini shots remind fans that she’s not hiding from the spotlight—just reclaiming it on her own terms.
