Back in 2013, the N-Dubz singer was arrested for allegedly supplying £800 worth of cocaine. It later emerged undercover journalist Masher Mahmood set her up by posing as a wealthy film producer

The case went to court, but Tulisa's trial collapsed after Mahmood was accused of tampering with evidence and lying in the witness box.

Speaking with Fearne Cotton on her Happy Place podcast, Tulisa said: “There were days where I was on the bathroom floor, crying my eyes out, having nervous breakdowns, thinking of doing the worst things possible.”
