Costadinos Contostavlos, aka Dappy, is a housemate from Celebrity Big Brother 13.

Profile

Costadinos Contostavlos, known as Dappy, is a British rapper of Greek descent. Dappy formed N-Dubz with friend, Fazer, and cousin Tulisa when they were 13. Dappy met Richard 'Fazer' Rawson at a karate class aged 9 and they started writing songs together.

Recruiting his cousin Tulisa to share vocals, N-Dubz was formed in 2000, playing gigs round pubs and clubs in Camden. In 2007, the group won the Best Newcomer award at the MOBOs. Shortly afterwards, they signed a deal with Polydor Records, who re-released their track You Better Not Waste My Time. The newly-released version of the single reached No 26 on the UK singles chart. Later that year, Dappy teamed up with Baker Troble to release Love For My Slums, which became a huge hit on Channel U. In May 2008, their track Ouch received more than 4 million views on YouTube.

After leaving their deal with Polydor, the group signed with Around the World Records, where they released a string of Top 10 albums. Dappy has since gone solo, collaborating with Tinchy Stryder on the track Number 1, which topped the charts.

Celebrity Big Brother 13

Dappy entered the House on Day 1 handcuffed to Liz. However, as part of the Launch Night twist, they were then released from each other but automatically faced the first eviction as a pair.
