I'm not voting for her and don't enjoy watching her but there's a part of me that hopes she wins just to serve Simon Cowell/producers right. They are so sure they can control everything. I hope it gets away from them.

I can see it being a Honey v Ryan final with the lowest ever viewing figures.

Had the other 11 acts been really good it would have bothered me that Honey G kept staying but they have never had a year of 12 really solid good acts so don't see a problem with her taking a few out, in the case this year she can take just about all of them out.

No one stands out, we had people like Nate, Niall and Peyton, Olivia reminded me a bit of last year's winner but she was better than some (most?) of these and then Caitlyn of course.

Matt was flat yesterday, the falsettos sound good but he is bland in between.
Samantha has potential but insists on doing that break in her voice on every single line of the song.
Gifty is ok but nothing exceptional.
5AM look good and sometimes sound ok
Emily was well off at the beginning yesterday and it's the same every week.
Saara can sing well.

Saara is my bet to leave next week as the teeny girls will save Ryan again in the flash vote.

I do agree that the fact the best acts went out at judges houses has meant that people are voting for Honey g as there isn't really a stand out act in the final 12

I was horrified by Honey G in the beginning-but that was when they had some good singers (sorry don't remember names but the American bald guy, the Filipino lady, the blonde barmaid). Now all the acts that are left are mediocre at best so I find myself fast forwarding through them all to see Honey because at least she's entertaining...in a horrific sort of way! I wouldn't vote for anyone though so it's not me keeping her in

Ah, she's a talking point, and I have trouble believing anyone has given up on the show just because there's two minutes of Honey G in it, and it's not the end of the world if some performers who were never going to last long go home a week early. Clearly for many she furnishes agreeable light relief, rather as Stevi Ritchie did. I haven't a device to my name and probably won't vote at all this year, but after Emily and Sam her performance is generally the one I look forward to most.

It's not a talent competition otherwise Relley wouldn't have gone and Ryan would have instead

I think the boos said it all, and what was Dermot saying about swearing?

Those ridiculous hand gestures she makes !!

Totally agree, I learnt my lesson some years back when I loved Laura Whites voice. All the judges loved her at the beginning and then voted her out, I was gutted and vowed to never to get so emotional about any of the singers again!

Take it all with a pinch of salt, on saying that I don't know why anybody would vote for Honey g over any of the other contestants. Honey G CANNOT sing or rap! she's so very sad!

They think they are getting back at the show, but they are all deluded.

Are you serious, the show is all about Honey I fully expect her to be in until the Semis

I don't even watch the show anymore, but I do youtube Honey G once a week - say what you like but she is entertaining and has obviously connected with the wider voting public. Better singers will fall - and that's tough - it's how it's always been. She has a shelf life to the show but at least she breaks up the serious monotony of "competent" singers. X factor wouldn't be the same without the novelty acts.

Honey G is virtually guaranteed to be a CBB housemate in the next year or two.

She is bound for benefit street I reckon.

The only really good singer is Saara so Honey G can keep knocking them out as far as i'm concerned.

I couldn't disagree more with your post. I've never been a fan of novelty acts but, up to now, can see that most of them had charisma and a certain level of charm and personality.
With Honey G though, I just can not even begin to understand how anyone can find her entertaining in the slightest. The joke was funny for about 5 minutes but I honestly think it's the most desperate and pathetic publicity stunt the show has ever done - and yes that probably is rhyming slang.
She isn't funny, she has the charm of herpes and I'd rather have root canal without Novocaine that listen to one of her immature nursery rhyme raps. She's like a drunk mum going to a fancy dress party and is about as street as my gran

Well preferably I don't see why it can't be both?

Thing is though Blondie, I don't even think Cowell would mind if she won the whole thing. After all, he's got previous with one hit wonder novelty acts, Zig & Zag, Robson & Jerome etc, he'd probably bring out a Christmassy "you say Honey & I say G" record, then she'll go back to doing her PR or whatever it is she does in her day job, maybe after doing a stint on Celebrity BB........

SC is the only real winner, the money lands in his pocket whatever happens.

Too right.

The HG version of Ice Ice Baby was surprisingly entertaining, which is what XFactor is all about.

Honey G really knows how to shut it down.

The ones going now would never really make the final so I doesn't really matter which order they leave in.

In your opinion just because others obviously don't agree with your opinion doesn't mean they are wrong. She got all my five votes as there is a lot of shit this year including this week's bottom three

I'm sure they are controlling it perfectly and will be pleased with the winner they get #voteg
