But Tulisa Contostavlos did not look too happy as a playful seagull flew straight in her direction.
The N-Dubz star was busy sunning herself on the beach in Miami when the creature swept over her, coming within inches from her face and touching distance had she sat up from her tanning position.
Fun in the sun: Tulisa is currently 'working' in the US on solo material, but is spending more time on the beach
A female friend and loyal PA Gareth Varey saw the funny side, but Tulisa was quick to point both fingers at the bird and show the gull who was boss, before sitting up and ducking beneath it.
The X Factor judge is currently in Florida working on her solo material, but seems to be spending more time on the beach topping up her sunkissed skin than in the recording studio.
Tulisa will have to spend time rehearsing soon though, as she is joining the Wireless Festival bill.
She tweeted: 'I am hyped! My first solo festival performance has been announced. 7th July wireless.'
The Camden-born star certainly looks ready to storm the stage, with her girl next door charm.
Tulisa shunned the size zero and peroxide blonde conventions of Miami Beach to look effortlessly radiant with a natural glow in her sequin purple bikini.
But despite the smiles, Tulisa will no doubt be disappointed to miss her little muffins Little Mix perform on opening night of the tour this evening which kicks off at Manchester MEN Arena.
Ever since landing in the States, Tulisa has been courting plenty of attention with her myriad of summer dresses and gallivanting around in the sunshine - including a visit to LA sex shop.
And this week has been no exception as Tulisa showed off her enviable figure yesterday at the beach and on Thursday, relaxing in a white floral two-piece by the pool at her hotel.
The singer, 23, wore a bikini with brightly coloured tropical flowers as she sunned herself, and certainly appeared to relish picking up a tan the natural way as opposed to her usual spray job.
Giggles aplenty: Tulisa seemed in high spirits, relishing the sunny weather
She showed off her slender waist and flat stomach in the Lipsy bikini as she hung out with friends, enjoying a laid-back afternoon outside.
Tulisa was probably in need of some downtime having spent the morning at the recording studio.
She later left her hotel with a friend wearing a short summery dress sporting a rather garish design.
The two had obviously coordinated their outfits as they both had pink heels on and dresses of a very similar cut, though Tulisa's was far brighter.
In fact, the design was very reminiscent of Versace with its thick gold chains print and a pink tiger's head in the middle of her chest.
On Wednesday, Tulisa continued to top-up her tan by relaxing beside the pool with Gareth.

Prior to their arrival in Miami, where Tulisa is shooting a music video for her first solo single We Are Young, the entourage had been in LA where she was prepping her new album project.
Earlier this week, she admitted she was torn between several tracks for the first release.
She's been hashtagging the single on her Twitter page in the hope of getting the song trending on the social networking site.
As she prepared to leave LA, she tweeted: 'On route 2 the airport! A week of studio, sun, sea & fun! Then the video shoot 4 my first single! #weareyoung #wereinmiamib**ch.'
And once she arrived in Florida, she was met by the paparazzi and some bemused tourists who bumped into the star in the airport toilets.
She wrote on Twitter: 'I am hiding in a Miami airport toilet...swamped by Americans that have no idea who I am, can the ground open up already #awkward.
'Taking pics with a load of people that have no idea who u r..in the loo..n gettin papped comin out of a cubicle is just weird#onlywantedawee.
'Well despite the hoo ha I've landed eeeeeyyy #miami.'
Her debut single has been produced by ex-boyfriend and N-Dubz bandmate Richard 'Fazer' Rawson.
