Is The X Factor’s Honey G a fake? All the rumours so far...
When I say ‘Honey’, you say ‘G’
She’s undoubtedly one, if not the most, controversial contestant to ever make an appearance on The X Factor.
Fans were initially outraged that Honey G made the live shows over a number of ‘more talented’ singers. In fact, before the first live show, over 16,000 viewers signed a petition saying she shouldn’t have made it this far in the competition.
Remarkably though, Honey G seems to have won over Simon Cowell. The fact that Cowell has turned from Mr Nasty to Mr Nice this year is leading viewers to question whether Honey G is actually an actress, planted on the show to increase viewing figures.
However, that’s not the only conspiracy theory to emerge about Honey G this year. From the outlandish, to the probable, here’s a round up of all the rumours about Honey G so far:
That she’s somebody in disguise
Some have gone as far as to suggest that Honey G could really be former Prime Minister David Cameron or businesswoman Karren Brady. Obviously, this is far from the truth.
Underneath the sunglasses, Honey G is actually Anna Georgette Guilford who has had a successful career in recruitment.
Honey G is tricking the viewers and X Factor bosses
Could Honey G really be catfishing us all? Will a tell-all book be released this time next year, as we discover that she wanted to prove that talent shows are no longer about talent? Only time will tell…
X Factor bosses planted Honey G in the show to cause controversy and increase viewing figures
Some have pointed out that whereas novelty acts are usually dismissed by Simon Cowell straight away, he seems to have a soft spot for Honey G - could he be masterminding her appearance?
With Jessy from Little Mix recently commenting that she thinks Honey G is an actress, could she know something we don’t?
It’s no secret that viewing figures have dropped in recent years, but Honey G certainly has a lot of people talking this year. Could this all be a ploy from Cowell and co?
It’s already been decided when Honey G will be leaving the competition
With reports that she has signed up to do a guest appearance at a club on the night of the live final, does Honey G know that she will be leaving earlier than this? Or is it just that she does not have the confidence that she will remain in the competition until the final 3?
The club in question has since released a statement saying that Honey G’s appearance will be dependant on when she leaves the competition, but conspiracy theorists think there could be more to it.
Honey G actually just wants to entertain the public
It could be as simple as that - Honey G could just be a contestant, hoping to change her life and entertain people on a Saturday night.
