X Factor judge Tulisa is said to be devastated after a friend of hers was killed in what is believed to be a gang-related attack.
Reece James, 20, was shot in the head in an attack which took place in Bournemouth earlier this week. Tulisa appeared in a controversial music video with James and rapper Nines earlier this year.
Also known as Stylie, James was shot in what police believe was a 'pre-planned and targeted' attack - some 200 miles away from his home in London.
Police found James' body in the Boscombe area at around 2.30am this morning in an area known for its drug dealer activity. A 22-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the case.
2012 has been a year full of controversey for Tulisa with the aforementioned gang affiliation as well as the fall out from her sex tape court case. It was claimed this week that the trial could end up costing her £100,000.
Meanwhile, her solo career rolls on with Tulisa revealing new single 'Live It Up' earlier this week.
