Beta release at best.

[Yudster]

Bless you. There's no other reason why when its pretty much died down her own father tries to bring it all back to the forefront of the tabloids again, No way.

Speaking of Tulisa, saw this video yesterday which made me chuckle...how to eat an easter egg in the 'Tulisa style'



You don't need to watch her sex tape any more Yuds, as this is a pretty good impression!

Triple post.

[neilt0]

It's funny enough for a hextuple post!

[slaphead1982]

Just finnished listening to the Tulisa shows and...
I'm that impressed. As much as I like the idea of having a famous replacment while Dave is away It just isnt the same. Change can be good, but this just was'nt. It was'nt a faliure but it was underwelming. A dull week. As a side note they should have spent more time on Matts leaving segment.

[What]

Just to underline my opinion that the whole thing is a publicity stunt - I see today that now, as its all dying down, no-one is talking about it and no-one cares any more, Tulisa's dad has said in a newspaper that the whole thing has ruined their family....of COURSE it was deliberate, and this is a cynical attempt to keep it in the public eye as long as possible.

I'm surprised you hold this opinion, considering how absurd it is. Do you really think someone would release such an embarrassing video to gain attention? Would you?

Clearly her team has directed her to make the best of the situation. But, to imply it was done on purpose is daft.

Bless you. There's no other reason why when its pretty much died down her own father tries to bring it all back to the forefront of the tabloids again, No way.

Making use of a situation doesn't mean they created it.

[Yudster]

In answer to your question, no I wouldn't - but then I have a job that doesn't require me to be in the forefront of the tabloid-reading public eye in order to achieve my targets.

She's far from the first to do something like this, and she won't be the last - given the level of precedent over the years I'm not sure why you think its so absurd.

[Travis Bickle]

I think Yudster makes some valid points, and I am not as certain as I was that Tulisa isnt behind the release of the tape, but I still cant believe that anyone - even her- would do that. I think What is right. Her and the people around her are just making the best out of it that they can.

[MadTheEddos]

I think both sides of the fence have made compelling points. It seems pretty odd that something as embarrassing as that video would be released for promotional purposes - then again, any publicity is good publicity, and it did leak just as she was about to embark on a solo career...
Either way, I don't particularly care. As said already, it's been done before and it'll be done again. To be honest I've found this whole story more boring than anything else.

[MK Chris]

She was back in the papers over it this weekend (The Star possibly?) - once again bringing it back to the attention of the public when it's pretty much been forgotten. I think Yudster is right.

[dimtimjim]

TB may have a point, and they are trying to make the best of it. I still maintain T wouldn't want that to ever see the light of day due to an amazing lack of technique.

[MK Chris]

But bringing it back into the public eye after it's forgotten is not making the best of a bad situation, it's desperately trying to keep it in people's memories.

[MadTheEddos]

She's due in the Live Lounge tomorrow as well. Funny that.

[Nicola_Red]

She talked about the so-called sex tape quite extensively on Alan Carr at the weekend too. She certainly doesn't seem too shy about it.

[The Deadly]

She should be ashamed of her poor performance in that video. Horrendous.

[Yudster]

Every time it dies down she or someone associated with her brings it back. People you are being SO naive.

[Jaiimez]

She contributed more to the show in 4 days than Tina has in 2 years.

I think I have to agree.

To be fair i am sure Tina has a lot nope behind the scenes to do than Tulisa

Hah definitely. For example the sport news and all the Newsbeat side of things.

But bringing it back into the public eye after it's forgotten is not making the best of a bad situation, it's desperately trying to keep it in people's memories.

So her family, production team etc are "desperately trying to keep it in people's memories". How does that even make sense?

She's doing the rounds, getting paid to talk about it. That's making the best of a bad situation. Why be quiet about it when you can get paid thousands to talk a bit? It's business sense. She's over the emotional part and now she's cashing in.

Every time it dies down she or someone associated with her brings it back. People you are being SO naive.

Not really.

Turns out that Yuds saddens Tulisa

[Nicola_Red]

How weird does she look in that pic they've used? She looks a bit like a plastic sex doll.

[dimtimjim]

Ha!

"Outside court, Miss Contostavlos, dressed in black hot pants, a pale peach jacket and a floral top, spoke to reporters."

Yeah, 'cos hot-pants is what you wear to court... For jeffy-jeffs sake.

[Nicola_Red]

More to the point - what the frak does it have to do with anything what she was wearing?

[dimtimjim]

Nothing, all tabloid work is like that - the papers have space to fill. Why use 8 words when 26,000 fills more space.
