Tulisa Contostavlos has spoken about her regrets over explicit footage which was leaked online.

The singer addressed the incident in a wide-ranging interview with Good Morning Britain, where she also spoke with Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan about having cosmetic procedures.

The former N-Dubz star, 26, was a judge on the X-Factor when the video made with an ex-boyfriend emerged online in 2012.

At the time, she published a YouTube video responding to the footage. “This is someone that I loved, that I trusted, that meant the world to me, that I feel deeply betrayed by," she said. "I am sure that everyone at home has had intimate moments with someone they cared about and never expected at any point that they would go and share it with the rest of the world.”

She also said she had been warned by friends beforehand that it could surface.

“That's something I regret. I mean of course I regret it, wouldn't you?" she told Reid. "But when I made it, I wasn't that famous. I was in a relationship with the person for two years and I trusted him.

“Everything I've been through has taught me how to become a more understanding person. I care more about other people's emotions now. I can relate when people are going through a tough time. I am a less judgemental person because of what I've been through.”

Constovalos also discussed having fillers injected into her face, which she says she had an allergic reaction to. “It made me look like Finding Nemo,” she joked. She said she still has fillers for her lips.
