In WinRT-XAML; prevent paste into TextBox

I have a TextBox and I don't want the user to Paste into it.

How do I prevent paste?

Also is a drop of text from another app into a TextBox a Paste event?

As of Windows 8.1, the Windows.UI.XAML.TextBox control has a Paste event handler which fires before the content is inserted into the control. If you set the Handled property to true, the text will not be inserted into the TextBox.
