Singer Tulisa Contostavlos is set to be questioned by police after she was caught setting up an 800 pounds cocaine deal during an undercover investigation.
The former 'X Factor' judge will be questioned by officers from Scotland Yard's Major Crimes Unit within days after the 24-year-old star allegedly arranged for her friend to supply half an ounce of the Class A drug to an undercover reporter, the Sun reported.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said, "We have received information concerning the alleged supply of illegal drugs. We are considering the information received."
A police car was spotted arriving at Tulisa's 6 million pounds Hertfordshire home, where she reportedly spent the day after details of the investigation were revealed.
The singer and her team had at least six boxes of pizzas delivered and her N-Dubz bandmate and cousin Dappy Contostavlos was spotted arriving around mid-afternoon, hiding in the back of a red car.
During the taped investigation, Tulisa said she could arrange for cocaine or cannabis - which she refers to as 'white sweets' and 'green sweets' respectively - to be delivered for the reporter.
The publication has passed its findings onto the police.
"We have received information concerning the alleged supply of illegal drugs at a central London location. We are considering the information," a spokesman said.
