I’m A Celeb viewers only just realising where name N-Dubz comes from ‘after all these years’
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! viewers are only just realising where the name N-Dubz comes from 'after all these years'.
Now, it's clear many fans of the beloved reality TV show have been absolutely buzzing to see Tulisa back on their screens once again after she took a hiatus from TV.
The 36-year-old 'Girls' singer made up one third of the hit British hip-hop group N-Dubz alongside rappers Fazer, 37, and Dappy, 37, who also happens to be her cousin.

Together, the Camden-hailing trio won a MOBO Award for Best Newcomer in 2007, and briefly signed with Polydor Records before joining All Around the World.
They also recently reunited for their tour named 'Back to the Future', which took place in November 2022, with tickets selling out within minutes of being released.
However, while many I'm A Celeb fans and fellow celebs alike may know N-Dubz's chart-topping discography, featuring UK bangers like 'I Swear', 'Best Behaviour', 'Ouch', 'Strong Again' and 'Playing With Fire' - they don't actually know where their moniker comes from.
Speaking in the camp during last night's episode (18 November), Strictly Come Dancing star Oti Mabuse asked Tulisa: "And what does 'N-Dubz' stand for?"
"North West," Tulisa explained, "North West London. The postcode - 'NW'."
Clearly excited with the discovery, Oti exclaimed: "I'm from... I'm N-Dubz! I'm N-Dubz!"
As their fellow campmates cheered on, Tulisa quoted the trio's iconic catchphrase, saying: "Na na nii!"
ITV viewers have since rushed to social media to share their reactions to Oti's bombshell revelation with one Instagram user admitting: "Not me only just getting it too after all these years."
"Same here," agreed a second fan while a third quipped: "I didn't know either!"
A fourth then penned: "Took me ages to work out the Dubz part! Dubz 'w,s'!"
"I was today years old when I realised what N Dubz stood for - after buying albums, seeing them on tour," revealed another.
And a final Instagram user echoed: "I had no clue what it stood for either!!!"
Well, it seems you really do learn something new everyday!
