N-Dubz star Dappy is seen 'getting angry' and swearing at a fan on stage during a £6 gig as they derail his performance
N-Dubz star Dappy was reportedly seen 'getting angry' and swearing at a fan on stage during a £6 gig after they derailed the performance.
The rapper, 37, was seen in a video clip inviting a hardcore fan on stage to join him to sing his 2012 hit No Regrets with him at the Trilogy Nightclub in Essex last month.
As the performer - who was in the band with cousin and former X Factor judge Tulisa and pal Fazer - met up with the fan on the platform, he made a grabbing action with his hands.
But as Dappy, whose real name is Costadinos Contostavlos, threw the microphone over to him, the ticketholder dropped it on the floor.
In a display dubbed as 'rude,' shirtless Dappy was reportedly seen mouthing: 'F**king hell man.'
When Dappy was given his microphone back, it did not work which seemed to frustrate him further.

Dappy then banged it on his hand and tried to sing into it before lobbing it onto the floor himself.
And fans of the former popstar were not impressed as they described his behaviour as 'rude'.
'I thought he was rude to the fan that dropped the mic,' claimed reveller Ellen Collins.
She also told NeedToKnow: 'I was just really let down by his behaviour and attitude.
After the video was circulated online, his fan base also had a view on outburst as they questioned why he got so angry.
One penned: 'Why is he always so angry?' while another claimed 'I would have asked for my money back'.
MailOnline contacted Dappy's representatives for a comment.
The incident comes after he theatened to 'twist the head off' his management and 'slap' his accountants over unpaid money from his N-Dubz reunion tour in 2023.
He launched a scathing tirade on Instagram, claiming he has not been 'paid a penny from the group's sell-out reunion tour which had to add extra dates to meet fan demand.
The hitmaker claimed he will never write another song or perform with N-Dubz again if he is not paid for the tour.
In a now deleted post, seen by The Sun, he wrote: 'Since N-Dubz comeback, I wasn't paid a penny in any way, form or shape! I'll never write another song or bar with N-Dubz again.
'F**k N-Dubz and f**k everyone who helped manage them. I'll never write another song or bar with N-Dubz again.
He added: 'I'm gonna twist your head off your shoulders when I catch you.
'I'm slapping you sooo hard too you little f**k boy. I want my breaddddd.'
Dappy also shared a document which said spending on the tour budget was 'way over what we expected' and there were no funds to pay him.
It read: 'There are currently no funds currently available to Dappy from the N-Dubz money.
'We are still yet to receive everything from (the manager) but from what he has provided so far, the level of his spending on behalf of Dappy from the tour money is way over what we expected.
'It's not a case of Dappy not being paid for the tour, it's a case of the money earnt by Dappy already being spent without his or our knowledge.
'This spending has eaten in to the other band members' pots. Again, we did not know this was happening.'
MailOnline contacted Dappy's representatives for comment at the time.
After forming in 2000, N-Dubz embarked on a successful career, which saw them release two platinum-certified albums, as well as eight top 40 hits.
Their most famous hits include No Regrets, Say It's Over, Number One and Playing With Fire.
They parted ways in 2011 before reunting in 2022 and announced a 10-date reunion tour, adding another seven shows when it sold out in minutes.

Westlife star pulls out of 25-year celebrations after serious health issues leaving fans concerned
The band will continue on for their anniversary as a trio. Westlife fans have been left gutted after it was revealed that band member Mark Feehily will not be able to perform at the band's big 25th anniversary gigs as he continues to battle health issues. Mark was in the band with Nicky Byrne, Shane Filan and Kian Egan and the lads enjoyed huge success but in February 2024, he announced that he was taking a step back from the Irish boyband due to health issues. The last few years have been tough for Mark and in 2024, he underwent surgery to treat a hernia. A few years prior to that he was treated for sepsis during a Covid lockdown in August 2020. At the time of his operation last August, Mark was advised to recover and not go back on tour with Westlife as they headed off to Canada, the US, Mexico and Brazil, writes The Mirror. Many fans were hopeful that Mark would later be able to rejoin the group to mark their big anniversary, but he has now confirmed that he will be unable to attend. In a message shared on social media on Wednesday night, Westlife wrote: "To our amazing fans, We would like to take this opportunity to share some very important news with you all. "We are thrilled to announce the launch of our 25th Anniversary celebrations... On the 9th February 2001 we kicked off our first ever world tour at the Newcastle Arena. Who would have thought we would still be here 25 years later? "We have so many exciting plans to share with you very soon which will include new music, an album, special shows and many, many more surprises along the way. "Sadly, Mark will be unable to join the celebrations. We hope he can join us back on stage when he is ready and able. He sends his love and positivity to you all as always. "The four of us can't quite believe its been 25 years. We could only have dreamt of the continued love and loyalty you have consistently shown us around the world. We are so lucky to have all of you with us and we can't wait to celebrate together! Happy 25th To Us All! Love, Kian, Mark, Nicky & Shane x." In the comments sections of the post, fans had different opinions on the show doing on as a trio. One penned: "I don't know whether to cry with happiness that you're finally coming back for your 25th year anniv or sob at the fact that mark won't be joining you to celebrate it. I'm so overwhelmed…" "Love you guys... BUT, Westlife isn't Westlife without Mark. 3 just don't cut it," another wrote, with a third pondering: "I wonder if Bryan McFadden will possibly join them for some shows?" Brian McFadden was also a member of Westlife but quit the band in March 2004. Mark first opened up about his health struggles last year on Instagram, posting a statement on the band's official Instagram account, he wrote: "Hello and much love to you all! It's Mark here.. Most of you are aware that I have had some health challenges over the past while. It actually all started 3.5 years ago in August 2020 when I had surgery. Within a few days of this surgery I was in severe pain and was rushed into AandE." He continued: "I eventually ended that awful day in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) where I was informed that due to a complication with the surgery, I had developed severe "Sepsis", a life-threatening infection that would require immediate emergency surgery to rectify the problem and basically save my life. I spent the next few months in hospital. It was during lockdown. For months, due to strict Covid restrictions, I was not allowed any visitors including my fiance and my then 10-month-old daughter. It was physically and mentally a very difficult time, not to mention traumatic having to spend so long in ICU." Mark revealed that he was discharged from hospital in December 2020 but has since grappled with chronic health issues. He elaborated: "In late 2021, I became very ill in Newcastle before a concert and ended up back in AandE, this time being told I had pneumonia. I was told I had to go straight home to recover and regrettably miss the rest of the concerts that December. I was referred to a consultant who told me I needed more surgery which I went ahead with in May 2022 meaning I was forced to miss more of The Wild Dreams tour. "Three months after that surgery, I tried my best to soldier on for you guys and to go back on tour but unfortunately the physical demands of the concerts and extensive travel were proving too much for me. I developed a very large 'incisional hernia' and I was told that I needed further surgery to fix it. This would be my fourth major surgery since the start of it all, but I had no option." Fortunately, his most recent surgery was successful, however, Mark still needs time to recover. "It is with the utmost level of regret that I must now temporarily stand down from all Westlife touring until a time that I have had the chance to fully recover from the turbulent journey I have been through as an individual," he confessed. "Believe me, I wish things could be different! I would like to thank you so very much for your support and understanding of me and my health over the past few years." He expressed his gratitude towards his family and medical team for their support during his health struggles. Mark went on: "To Shane, Kian and Nicky, I love you three and I know you'll knock it out of the park. I'll be there with you in spirit for each and every show whilst you continue to fly the Westlife flag around the world." Openly acknowledging his current condition, he confided: "But for now, I have to make the right decision for my health and wellbeing, for my family, and for myself as a person. Please don't worry. Sending the most positive vibes in your direction, I will see you very soon beautiful people! WESTLIFE FOREVER! Love, Mark Feehily xx." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Justin Bieber could be placed in conservatorship by Hailey if she can prove 3 points to court amid his bizarre behavior
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JUSTIN Bieber could be placed in a conservatorship by wife Hailey if she can prove three key points to the courts amid his concerning behavior, a legal expert has told The U.S. Sun. In recent weeks, the pop star has gone on bizarre rants and appeared incoherent in photographs and videos - leading many fans to believe it's time for Justin, 31, to seek help. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Justin Bieber has sparked concern in recent social media posts Credit: Instagram 9 Hailey Bieber during The Business of Beauty Global Forum 2025 on June 10, 2025 Credit: Getty If Justin's behavior continues to be as dangerous as many believe, it's not out of the question that he could be placed in a conservatorship for his well-being. "As a seasoned attorney, I'll say this bluntly: If Justin Bieber's recent behavior is as troubling as reported amidst erratic social media posts, visible signs of impairment, and statements hinting at isolation and emotional instability, then YES, a conservatorship could be considered,' powerhouse legal expert Jamie Wright exclusively told The U.S. Sun. However, the decision would not be made lightly, as the acclaimed lawyer made it clear that conservatorships are 'legal nuclear options.' 'In California, a conservatorship is a court-ordered plan where a designated person (conservator) is appointed to manage the affairs, personal care, or finances of an adult deemed unable to manage these on their own. 'This isn't just about being 'out of it' on Instagram. Courts require substantial medical evidence, and the bar is high. 'Especially post-Britney, with the public and legal community rightfully wary of abuses in the system,' Counselor Wright said of Britney Spears' unprecedented, and historic, conservatorship case. She went on to explain that in most conservatorship cases, the spouse or parent would have legal standing to file. However, in order for Hailey, 28, or Justin's mom, Pattie Mallette, to have a case, they would need to 'demonstrate that Justin is incapable of making rational decisions, poses a risk to himself or others — including his infant son, or is unable to manage his financial empire,' she claimed. 9 Justin Bieber sparks concern with a series of worrying selfies Credit: Instagram 9 The pop star lies on the concrete shirtless in bizarre social media posts Credit: Instagram 9 Many fans have been concerned over Justin's social media posts Credit: Instagram 'If a conservatorship were granted, it could have profound implications. Legally, Justin could lose control over decisions about his health, money, and even parental rights. 'Custody of his child could be questioned if there's evidence he's an unfit parent. 'It would certainly put pressure on his marriage with Hailey and would raise serious reputational questions that could derail future endorsements, brand partnerships, and touring plans. "He's young, powerful, and high-profile, so any conservatorship move would face intense public scrutiny and likely pushback," the attorney added.

Wright 'But when safety, especially of a child, is on the line, no one is untouchable. If this situation escalates, the law will step in. 'Bottom line, no one wants to see another celebrity conservatorship saga play out — but if the signs are as serious as they seem, it's not out of the question," Counselor Wright stated. 'HE NEEDS HELP' Recently, Justin sparked concern with a series of comments he's made online - including openly discussing drug use and being "done with transactional relationships." Things escalated further when the Sorry singer took to his Instagram Stories, posting close-up selfies where many said he looked "unwell." One slide he shared this week featured a screenshot from an AI chat interface asking: 'Has ketamine been used to control people's emotions?' The AI chatbot allegedly answered: 'There is clear evidence that ketamine has been misused in certain law enforcement scenarios, particularly in ways that amount to chemical restraint or social control." In another slide, Justin superimposed text over a photo of himself looking defeated: 'This is how I feel after people keep telling me theres more work to do after the ive given everything I have to give.' Welcome Baby Bieber! Singer Justin Bieber and his wife, model Hailey Bieber, welcomed their first child in August 2024. The celebrity couple revealed that they were expecting in May when Hailey was already six months pregnant. The pair announced the birth on August 24, sharing their son's name, Jack Blues Bieber, for the first time. Justin shared a photo of Hailey's hand touching their newborn's foot, which was wrapped in a blanket. Fans immediately congratulated Hailey and Justin while pointing out the family connection of the name Jack. Justin's great-grandfather was Jack Arnold, and his father, Jeremy Bieber, has Jack as a middle name. He followed up with: 'I don't think any of us can handle hearing 'You just gotta try a little harder and you will be like me.' It's not true. "I listened to those fools who told me to work harder. And there's no end to trying to earn ur spot in this life because I tried. U have everything u need right now.' On another snap, he admitted: 'We wanna make our life about work so bad. But this life is about God. Loving us so we can love each other. Quit making ur life about work smh. God will always inspire u to wait to work hard. 'U think if you don't tell people to work hard that they won't. Stop playing God please.' Justin went on: 'Conditioning. Will make u feel i didn't know what the f*** u knew.' This cryptic post was followed by another black-and-white selfie with the caption: 'But I f***in always knew in my gut Jesus was always the answer to pain we are all facing. 'People still keep making me think If I work hard on myself I'll be better like them. But the harder I work on myself the more I think about myself. I though the point was to think about one another?' He finished with: 'The only thing that helps me to think about others to let go not try harder. Join me in letting go of not trying harder.' This follows reports that Justin is also facing great financial strain - allegedly owing his former manager, Scooter Braun, over $8 million, audits obtained by TMZ claim. 9 Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber are seen on February 06, 2025 in New York City Credit: GC Images 9 Justin Bieber holds billionaire wife Hailey Bieber's chest in cheeky snap after her $1 billion Rhode deal Credit: Instagram
