Tulisa has appeared at Southwark Crown Court today (April 22) after being charged with "being concerned in" the supply of Class A drugs.
The N-Dubz star has previously denied the claims, after she was accused of setting up a cocaine deal for an undercover reporter last year.
Her friend, musician Mike GLC, was also arrested in connection with the incident - with the 35-year old also appearing in court.
Tulisa arrived at court in a black suit, wearing her brunette locks up in a bun and kept her head down as she was whisked straight through security, The Mirror reports.
The former X Factor judge's lawyer Ben Rose stated back in December that The Female Boss would be denying the charges against her, and claimed she had been used as "fodder by greedy newspapers".

In a statement he said: "Tulisa has been charged with a serious criminal offence to which she will plead not guilty.
"As has been widely reported, this entire case has been manufactured by the Sun on Sunday and Mazher Mahmood, sometimes known as the fake sheikh.
"They spent a large amount of their readers' money in flying Tulisa and a number of her friends first class to Las Vegas.
"There, Mahmood posed as a film producer offering her a £3 million film contract.
"This case is not simply about drug supply. It is about the limits which we set on the conduct of journalists."
According to The Mirror, Tulisa's hearing was over by 10.45am, with a reporter adding that both defendants were "freed on unconditional bail as before".
They will have to attend another pre-trial hearing on June 25, before the trial officially starts on July 14 - the day after Tulisa's 26th birthday.
