Tulisa. Famous for something or other.. and being HONEST about it!

Whenever I see this book (and I've had it for a while now, it being one of the first books that I managed to source from the list at my Local Watfordian Library) I keep thinking of Tori Amos' song Talula and a voice in my head (Tori's, usually) starts to sing:

"Talula
Talula
you don't want to lose her
she must be worth losing
if it is worth something"

I also wonder who she is.  Truly, I have no idea.  I figured she was a model - I mean, she kind of looks like one.

After reading 80 pages of her autobiography I have a pretty good idea who she is.  She's a girl who from a very early age enjoyed the attention of the male sex, discovered drinking to excess at a ridiculously early age and ultimately was made famous by her cousin Dino (or Dappy) who was blessed with a very large penis and ergo had the confidence to become one of Britian's better known rappers.  I'm up to about age 13 at present, with 250 pages to go to cover the next ten years of her life.

I can't think of an N-Dubz song off the top of my head so I'm just going to pop onto my Virgin box to take a peek at the selection they can offer me.

30 minutes later:

Ah yes, the man who wears the funny hats... that's Dappy. He's the one who can make it snow.... then there is the handsome lad who doesn't sing very much and then then there is Tulisa who belts it out in her contralto voice and emotively shakes her fists and flails her hands at the camera whilst doing that.... okay, it's really not my cup of tea at age 43, but you know, they're pretending to be rock stars at least, not clean cut things that are selling their wares to the parents of pre-pubescent kids, so a little bit of respect goes out to them from this granddad.

Do I need to read any more to get to the end of Tulisa's life story?  Probably not, but, being somewhat obsessive I will get to end of her 24 years of existence.  After that, well, it's unlikely that I'll ever cross her path again.
