The 23-year-old said she felt forced to carry the weapon after being targeted by bullies at school – but she never actually had to use it. According to the Radio Times, she said: I had to walk down the road with a baseball bat in my pocket. I didnt end up having to use the bat, but I did have to punch people back. The X Factor judge, who grew up in Camden, London, says she sometimes feels like a showbiz fraud because of her upbringing. She added: Ill think, I dont belong here. I get those moments now and again. I can be very feisty, but thats a defence mechanism for me. Im defensive because too many years of my life I was treated like s***.br /br /Source: Splash News

Yele Haiti raised a staggering $16 million last year – but only $5.1 million went on emergency relief efforts following the devastating earthquake in Haiti, according to records seen by the New York Post. And more than $1 million went to a Florida firm that the Post says doesnt seem to exist – but whose company head bought three upscale homes last year. Jeans charity, which he founded in 2005 with his cousin Jerry Duplessis, was already troubled when the earthquake struck Haiti on January 12, 2010. The Post reported in 2008 that it had never filed a required tax form detailing its spending with the IRS – and allegations also surfaced that the former Fugees singer had used the charitys cash for his own benefit.br /br /Source: Splash News
