Tulisa pleads not guilty to assault


Tulisa was back in court yesterday (February 12) to face assault charges after she allegedly 'punched' a man at last year's V Festival.

Fashion blogger Vas J Morgan alleges that Tulisa came at him in a "drunken and angry state" and struck him in the eye during the altercation at the music event last August.

The former X Factor judge arrived at Chelmsford Magistrates Court in Essex with her PA Gareth Varey, and pleaded not guilty to the charge of assault by beating.

Varey was also accused of threatening behaviour towards Morgan, and like his pal, pleaded not guilty.

The Female Boss - who showed off her dark hair and wore a black suit to the hearing - was later released on unconditional bail and will stand trial in May.

Her spokesperson Simon Jones later stated: "Tulisa has been charged with an offence of common assault and her PA, Gareth Varey, with an offence of threatening behaviour.

"Today at court Tulisa and Gareth entered pleas of not guilty to these unfounded allegations, and they both look forward to demonstrating their innocence at the forthcoming trial."

The N-Dubz star is also due back in court on July 14 in relation to an alleged cocaine deal.
