N-Dubz star 'hospitalised over swine flu fears'

The lead singer of N-Dubz has reportedly been hospitalised amid fears that she may have contracted swine flu.

According to The Sun, Tulisa Contostavlos was taken to hospital in Greece after falling ill on a flight to Athens from the UK. A doctor was later reported to have recognised several symptoms associated with the virus.

"Tulisa is very poorly indeed. She has gone from a huge high of chart success and the tour to panicking about her health," said a source.

"[Her] family have been forced to wear masks and have only been allowed minimal contact. It is a terrifying time."

A representative for the band added: "We are hopeful Tulisa will be given the all-clear and will be well enough to leave hospital in the next couple of days."

Contostavlos and bandmates Dino "Dappy" Contostavlos and Richard "Fazer" Rawson are currently at number one in the music charts with Tinchy Stryder.
