Her act Little Mix made X Factor history when they became the first girl group ever to win the show.

So Tulisa Contostavlos certainly deserved to enjoy the limelight at the show's wrap party last night.

And boyfriend Fazer was only too happy to let her, taking the sideline in a reserved black suit while Tulisa stole the show in eye-catching gold.

Can you breathe in that? Tulisa's fitted dress didn't leave much room spare, but it certainly showcased her curves

The 23-year-old showed off her figure in the figure-hugging one-shoulder dress from online brand Forever Unique, displaying her enviable curves.

Her sparkly ensemble made quite the contrast to Fazer's understated cool.

The rapper even wore sunglasses, presumably to shield his eyes from the glare of the photographer's flashes.

The pair were thick as thieves, though Fazer hung behind a little upon their arrival, letting Tulisa take the brunt of the paparazzis' attention.

It appears a small understanding may have taken place however, as Tulisa tweeted later on: 'And as 4 the paps opening my car doors while I'm waiting 4 friends, any pics of me shoutin 2moz its cus I told them 2 get off the door!'

Not wanting to to be misrepresented she added: 'Not because ...n yes i can guess the headlines 'tulisa throws drunken strop' believe me I wish I'd had more 2 drink after that!#toosober'

The irritation didn't appear to detract from her night's enjoyment however, as she looked cheerful throughout.

Tulisa's understandably been in the mood to celebrate ever since her 'little muffins' made X Factor history by becoming the first girl group to take home the prize on Sunday.

Not so keen on the cameras? Fazer looked a little irritated by the attention, whereas Tulisa was only to happy to flash a smile

She tweeted in the early hours of Monday morning: 'what do ya do after ur act wins the xfactor?...go 2 ur local kebab shop of course, wooooiiiiii....LOVE U #LITTLEMIX keep it real'

But while she clutched on to her beau last night, there was no sign of their band mate Dappy, who had slated the show just hours after his cousin triumphed on the programme.

The rapper, who took to the stage at the Academy 2 in Manchester and told the audience at his gig on Sunday night: 'This is what fame is, not standing for hours outside to audition for X Factor', before launching into his new single Rockstar, which features Queen guitarist Brian May.

Dappy continued his tirade against X Factor boss Simon Cowell saying 'F*** Simon Cowell'.

And it appears his comments have left him out in the cold as Tulisa failed to invite him to the wrap party.

She's certainly not one to keep her opinion to herself on the X Factor judging panel.

And it appears Tulisa Contostavlos exercises her feisty side in her personal life as well.

The outspoken 23-year-old has admitted that she is 'selfish' and a 'jealous' girlfriend to her N-Dubz bandmate Fazer.

Green-eyed monster: Tulisa Contostavlos has admitted that she doesn't like it when boyfriend Fazer chats to female friends

Chatting to Glamour magazine, the star confessed: 'I get jealous.'

'If he’s seeing his girl mates, I want to know them. I say, "what friend? You don’t need female friends. Why didn’t I know her before? Introduce me. Let’s go out for dinner".'

'I don’t stand for any sh*te… I’m selfish. I’m very stubborn. I never back down and I’m possessive,' she continued.

Stubborn: Tulisa admits that she 'never backs down' and is possessive

Tulisa has a softer side as well however, as she added: 'But I’m very accommodating. If he has a problem we talk about what we can do to fix it.'

No doubt Fazer toes the line, as Tulisa explained: 'If you fight me, I’m a raging bull. If you work with me, I’m good at that. And I’m very snugly.'

'As he always says, one minute I’m a puppy dog, the next I’m the ice queen.'

Keeping an eye on her man? Tulisa and Fazer were out together earlier this week celebrating friend Chipmunk's birthday at Jalouse nightclub in London

Tulisa has been far more open about her relationship with Fazer in recent months, having initially refused to discuss the matter in public.

The pair were spotted out together as a couple for the first time in September.

They have been dating since May last year, after an on-off flirtation heated up during their N-Dubz tour.

Fazer has recently revealed that he is getting involved in plans for Tulisa's X Factor protégées Little Mix.

'I wrote two songs in the past fortnight that would be perfect,' he told the Daily Star.

Tulisa is the only judge who has made it clear she wants to come back t and, given her popularity among young viewers, is considered the most likely to return.

In a 'nuclear option' being considered to boost ratings, Simon Cowell may return as a judge in 2013, replacing Gary Barlow.

FINALLY going public! Tulisa and Fazer step out as a couple at last for Dappy's single launch

They have been deeply secretive about their relationship, but it seems Tulisa Contostavlos and her boyfriend Fazer are at last ready to go public.

The pair were inseparable as they stepped out to celebrate the launch of their N-Dubz bandmate Dappy's debut single, No Regrets.

Tulisa beamed as she posed for the cameras outside the Movida club near Oxford circus, while Fazer looked very protective of his 23-year-old girlfriend.

Going public: N-Dubz bandmates Tulisa Contostavlos and Fazer are notoriously private about their relationship, but stepped out together to celebrate Dappy's debut single launch

Though they have been dating privately for over a year, the couple reportedly made a pact never to discuss their relationship.

The X Factor judge wore a white bandage dress with gold stilettos for last night's event, the form-fitting ensemble showing off her toned figure.

The star accessorized with huge diamond ring and a gold clutch, adding a splash of colour with matching pink nails and lips.

Protective: Fazer kept close to his 23-year-old girlfriend all night

Long time no see: Though they have dated since May last year, the pair made a pact never to speak about it in public, maintaining a strict air of professionalism

Her boyfriend donned his usual black and trademark peaked cap, showing his loyalty with some N-Dubz bling.

Dappy's debut solo effort has reached number one within a week of hitting the charts, so the pair had every reason to feel proud.

Tulisa tweeted enthusiastically: 'So proud of @TheDappy NUMBER1 wooooooooiiiiiii'

Family first: Tulisa was clearly very proud of her cousin Dappy, whose debut solo effort No regrets has reached number one

Happy together: After over a year of silence Tulisa finally described how supportive Fazer is as a boyfriend in an interview last month

Considerately the star, who is Dappy's cousin, made it clear that he isn't the only one she cares about, also writing: 'Love my ndubletts ☺'

Clearly Tulisa is less self-conscious than she used to be.

Though she and Fazer have barely been apart since they formed N-Dubz with her cousin (and Fazer's best friend) Dappy 12 years ago, things only heated up between them relatively recently, and they started dating around May last year.

Mixing work and pleasure: After months of flirtation, things heated up for Tulisa and Fazer on tour

Setting an example? N-Dubz are due to split soon, and it is unlikely that Tulisa will encourage any amorous activity in her role as X Factor group mentor

A source at the time claimed that the pair had been sleeping together on and off for a while previously, but that things had intensified while on tour.

The couple were apparently worried about the potential reaction from fans, and feared that though they loved each other, things might not work out if the public response was negative.

They therefore maintained a strict air of professionalism during public appearances, which seems to have relaxed a little recently.

Loyal: Tulisa has been enjoying her role as an X Factor judge, but remembers to show her N-Dubz bandmates that she cares

Setting an example? N-Dubz are due to split soon, and it is unlikely that Tulisa will encourage any amorous activity in her role as X Factor group mentor

What a shiner! Fazer boasted some pretty impressive silver ring bling in addition to his N-Dubz necklace

Little more professional distance? One security guard got up close and personal with the X Factor judge

Endearingly however, Tulisa still appears to treat her boyfriend more like a pal than a lover at times, tweeting recently: '@ndubz shhh fazer u skinny rat u need 2 eat some food!lol'

There have been rumours that N-Duz are planning to split, which might explain the duo's change in attitude.

It's unlikely however that Tulisa will encourage similar amorous activity in her role as an X Factor judge.

Minor slip: Tulisa's white bandage dress slipped down to reveal a mismatching black at the end of the night

The star has been put in charge of the groups category.

She said when she heard the news: ‘Guys you can’t even imagine how emotional I’m feeling right now, from now on, honestly, I’m here one-hundred percent for all of you from the bottom of my heart.’

Dappy's Movida party was also attended by Dionne Bromfield, Jade Ewen, Tinchy Stryder and Chipmunk.
