Going the Xtra mile: Tulisa Contostavlos shows support for X Factor losers Johnny Robinson and The Risk at London gig

Party time: Tulisa performed at G-A-Y with The Risk and Johnny Robinson last night at Heaven in central London

She is at risk of becoming a regular face at G-A-Y and so are her X Factor contestants.

Tulisa Contostavlos showed support for her axed boy band, The Risk, by turning up to watch them perform last night in central London.

The N-Dubz star, who was dressed up in a glam white sequined mini-dress, crossed mentor battle lines yet again by giving moral support to Johnny Robinson too.

On sparkling form: The X Factor judge beams as she makes her way into Heaven nightclub


Johnny was performing at the club for the first time since he was voted off the show last week after the judges saved Kitty Brucknell in the sing-off.

Unemployed Robinson, 45, may have found a career for himself now and received a good reaction from the crowd under the watchful eye of Tulisa.

Wearing high kick trainers and red sequined shirt and matching fan, Johnny had clearly kept his styling tips from the show.

Heating up: Johnny came prepared for a hot night at G-A-Y


This is the second time the Groups mentor has displayed a bond with an axed act not of her own category.

Tulisa comforted Kelly Rowland's Amelia Lily in September when the 17-year-old was booted from the live shows in her first week.

The X Factor judge sang happy birthday to Lily at the time and presented her with a big cake at GAY but Kelly was no where to be seen.


Reach for the stars: The Risk and Tulisa hit the high notes

Full house: Tulisa joins The Risk on stage for a duet


Equipped with big shoulder pads Tulisa watched her boys sing before jumping on stage and stealing the spotlight last night.

The 23-year-old showed The Risk how it's done as she belted out a couple of songs before joining them for a duet.

The Risk, composed of Derry Mensah, 21, Andrew Merry, 20, Charlie Healy 25 and Ashford Campbell, 19, have amassed celebrity fans including Katie Price and Rio Ferdinand and have been inundated with bookings since departing the show.

Rocking them beats: Tulisa listens to music on her way to Movida


Tulisa was obviously excited to be there and showed that she cares for her acts as she tweeted before the event: 'Heading to G.A.Y with @GarethVarey to see my boys @theriskoffic! Who's comming to play?!!! (sic).'

Johnny's actual mentor Louis Walsh was not present at the concert but has reignited his feud with fellow judge Gary Barlow blaming him for Frankie Cocozza's bad behaviour.

The Irish music manager claims that Gary told Frankie to misbehave and from day one encouraged him to be a bad boy.

The dizzy heights of fame: Backing dancers hoist Gina G up in the air


Also performing at the popular London club venue was 90s star Gina G.

The Australian dance music star sang her classic number one hit Ooh Aah... Just a Little Bit as well as other tracks.

Wearing a short metallic silver ruffled dress Gina was joined by some male dancers who at one point lifted her up and carried her around the stage.

After her appearance at G-A-Y, Tulisa headed to Movida to party the night away and got in the disco mood by listening to music on her headphones instead of the car's speakers.
