Tulisa puts on a racy display in a sexy red leotard for new shoot and reveals she finally said yes to I'm A Celeb as she's entered her 'f**k it era'

Tulisa Contostavlos has revealed that she said yes to I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! because she is now in her ‘f**k it era’ as she posed for a Sєxy shoot with FAULT magazine on Wednesday.

The N-Dubz singer, 36, posed up a storm for the publication where she wore a racy red leotard and went braless in a denim co-ord.

Tulisa is already in Australia for I’m A Celeb which begins on Sunday night and is joined by the likes of Oti Mabuse, Coleen Rooney and Jane Moore for this year’s series.

Speaking ahead of flying out she said of why she signed up this year: ‘I’ve never wanted to. I actually was at a point where I was like, ‘I would never, ever do this.’

‘But we’re all forever evolving and growing and I just got to a point in my life where I was just in my f**k it era. I was like, ‘Does it seem really uncomfortable?’ Yeah. ‘Is it super exciting?’ Yes.

‘Are you gonna have a crazy rollercoaster journey?’ Yes. So do it! All the things surrounding the fear around it, I’m just like, ‘So what! Just let it go. Do it!’

For her racy red look she slipped into a very skimpy leotard, тιԍнт black shorts and wore a long coat draped over her shoulders.

Her second look saw her don an oversized denim shirt and baggy jeans which she teamed with black shiny heels.

Elsewhere in the interview she spoke about how she has coped with fame over the years.

She said: ‘Like, I am famous and I need to get a grip. I’m fully aware of that. I know the industry I stepped into, so I just need to throw myself balls deep.

‘I’m hoping that when I come out the other side of the jungle, hopefully this fear will be eradicated because I couldn’t be in a more public, vulnerable, exposed situation.

‘But once it’s done and everyone kind of knows who you really are, there’s a sense of freedom in that. You’re just like, ‘Ah, there you go. There’s all the rumours put to bed.’

It comes after Tulisa revealed she would not be having her own Myleene Klᴀss ʙικιɴι shower moment during her time in camp, insisting she wants to stay under the radar.

She will be on our screens from Sunday

She declared she wanted the ‘polar opposite’, saying: ‘I am wearing black. I am going to pack three plain ʙικιɴιs, as I don’t want to draw attention to myself.

‘I am not going to step out in white. It will be the polar opposite and if someone can hold up a towel then I will (ask them!).’

The former X Factor judge went on to admit that she reckons the first few days in camp will be the hardest for her, as she has been avoiding the spotlight out of ‘irrational fear’.

She confessed: ‘I’m a big softie and I’m an emotional person. I will probably struggle in the first few days as doing something like this is a big deal for me.

‘I haven’t been thrust this much into the spotlight in a while and I have avoided it out of irrational fear. I will probably be the most emotional when I first go in. It will take me a while to settle in, but I know I will get past that.’

But Tulisa explained that despite her fear, she has decided to enter the jungle in the hopes of changing public perceptions of her.

She said she hoped the show would allow people to finally find out more about the real her and finally felt ready to push herself beyond her ‘comfort zone’.

She explained: ‘I am not the person people perceive me to be and this will be the chance for everyone to get to know the real me.

She said: ‘Like, I am famous and I need to get a grip. I’m fully aware of that. I know the industry I stepped into, so I just need to throw myself balls deep’
