As one of Pop’s more high profile hopefuls, it appears Tulisa is continuing on in her attempts to appear ‘premium’ with yet another big budget video.

Indeed, while her efforts would be better spent investing in a choreographer and media training, she has spent the last few days shooting the video for her single ‘Live It Up‘ with Young Money’s Tyga.

Snapped in Hawaii, the generic gem’s video is set to coincide with the launch of X Factor’s ninth season- in which she stars in alongside Nicole Scherzinger, Gary Barlow and Louis Walsh.

It’s a stance we wholly support, though; as Nelly’s talent is undeniable. Case, point, her freshly released stint on AOL Sessions.
