The X Factor judge showed off her bold blonde hair as she told media outside court that she was ready to put the ordeal behind her.
She said: '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. I am disgusted by Justin and saddened by the people that believed I released the footage myself.

The Young singer later expressed her happiness over Twitter, revealing her birthday trip to Ibiza to celebrate the result.
She wrote: 'JUSTICE IS SERVED! Moving on..ibiza here we come! #2012 #BIRTHDAYGIRL #IBIZADUKUFOOTSOLDIERS'
The Sun reports that Edwards was revealed to have leaked the tape for financial gain, hoping to make millions of dollars. He in fact ended up making $35.
Edwards had recently admitted to deliberately leaking the footage which showed the N-Dubz star engaged in a sexual act, calling the move 'ungentlemanly'.
He had previously denied posting the material in a recent interview with Loaded magazine, where he said: 'I filmed it but not on my phone. How can I release something that I haven't got?'.

Edwards, who was not present in court, agreed not to discuss their relationship in public again.
Contostavlos had spoken out on the tape previously in a candid YouTube video it which she discussed her shock at discovering the tape of her had been leaked.
Addressing her fans in a video she posted on Twitter with the caption, 'The truth about the tape', the former N-Dubz singer said the fact the footage had been leaked did not come as a surprise to her and apologised for any offence caused.
The X Factor judge was papped on the street sporting a mysterious black wig the day before, most likely with the intention of making the biggest impression possible when she finally revealed her new look.
