Ever since I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! kicked off last Sunday (17 November), people haven't been able to get over Tulisa’s age after finding out how old she actually is.
Now, fans have been loving seeing the N-Dubz star take on the trials and tribulations of the jungle especially since she was announced as camp leader.
Tulisa's also been praised by ITV viewers at home for her candid admission about her sexuality.

Earlier this week, the 'Playing with Fire' singer opened up about her love life explaining to her fellow campmates that she identifies as 'demisexual' - a sexual orientation where sexual attraction only occurs after a close emotional bond has been formed.
Admitting she was 'proper guarded' when it came to dating, Tulisa also revealed it had been three years since she'd slept with someone.
"I feel like I’m demisexual, I need to have a really close emotional bond with someone," she shared. "I need actual depth. I’m a slow, slow burner. I’ve been celibate for over three years."
During the chat, fellow campmate Dean McCullough asked Tulisa some more about her celibacy.
"I’m not an overly sexualised person," she explained. "For me, it’s all about the connection and the emotions that I feel with someone and then wanting to express them in that way."
Tulisa also added that it makes her feel 'physically sick' to imagine sleeping with or dating someone she doesn’t have a connection with, adding: "This is my temple, you cannot enter!"
And while they were happy to be granted the insight into her personal life, I'm A Celeb fans seemed to be incredibly eager to know how old she was.
Last year, Tulisa posted a video on Instagram eating cake to announce a milestone birthday with the caption reading: "BIRTHDAY GIRRRRRLLLL!! #cake."
Fans couldn't wait to rush into her comments to share their shock over her turning 35, with one praising: "You don’t look a day over 21."
Another quipped: "No way are you 35!"
And, more recently, fans have defended Tulisa, who is now 36, from trolls online hitting out about her appearance.
While some claimed she looked 'way older' than 36, others were far less judgemental with one Facebook user writing: "All these awful comments!! She was beautiful then and she's beautiful now!"
"Wow! Really petty these comments, she’s had the fillers due to her illness and not feeling confident to go about her daily business," explained another.
A third penned: "I think she looks good! So many negatives out there."
And a final fan echoed: "How about people leave her alone?
"And let her do what ever she wants with her body and life, how about that hey? Constant bullying of celebs needs to stop. Just because you got a keyboard should not give you the right to comment on another human."
