Birthday girl: Tulisa Contostavlos celebrated turning 24 by blowing out her candles as she was presented with a cake at Plastik Beach Bar in Ibiza last night

She yesterday said she was moving on after settling a case against her ex-boyfriend Justin Edwards following the leak of a sex tape.

And Young singer Tulisa Contostavlos did just that last night as she marked her 24th birthday with the first of many parties in Ibiza.

The X Factor judge was presented with a delicious birthday cake, complete with candles which she then blew out, as she celebrated her big day at the Plastik Beach Bar.

Make a wish! Tulisa looked delighted as she was given the cake in the nightspot, surrounded by a group of friends

The pretty singer wore a sexy printed bralet and matching skirt for the night out, highlighting her lighter locks with a deep golden tan.

During the evening, Tulisa was seen hitting the dancefloor with her pals, as well as being presented with a huge bunch of flowers and a present inside a Minnie Mouse gift bag.

However, later on the singer clearly didn't trust herself on the micro-blogging site as the alcohol kicked in, tweeting later on: 'I'm logging out. Ima sign my twitter over to @GarethVarey tonight haha.'

Tulisa had told reporters outside the High Court yesterday after settling her court case against Justin Edwards that she was looking forward to celebrate turning 24 in the sunshine.

Looking triumphant as she posed up outside the court, Tulisa added that Justin had 'messed with the wrong woman' by releasing the tape.

She said in a carefully-worded statement: 'I am relieved that this is finally over.
It has been a very testing few months and this was not a case I ever wanted to go through.

'Justin Edwards's actions were to spite me, make money and ruin my career. He has succeeded in none of these things.

'I stand here today a stronger, wiser young woman who has taken this experience and learnt from it.
