if her career is in general, or children's, entertainment then fair enough. i wouldn't support her either way but if she can make some money then more power to her.
But as far as a recording artist goes then she needs to fail because she needs to finally understand she isn't as talented of "real" as she likes to think she is. With 16k-odd streams and a single seemingly in freefall on the itunes chart, it's clear she's failing and failing hard so at least it'll likely spell the end of her rap "career" before it even starts. |

Down to 66 now.
A second single seem unlikely- then again Syco have remained stubbornly oblivious to her lack of popularity thus far, so perhaps they will carry on flogging this horse. |

I've never felt like this before and always wished people well even when they're not to my taste but this one grinds my gears. She's so unpleasant, rude, arrogant and takes herself so damn seriously. She has absolutely no humility despite being totally useless. And her pathetically purile fake ghetto speak is toe cringingly embarrassing. I don't think I've ever disliked a reality tv contestant as much as this ever and I want her to sink without trace within weeks |

You're more generous than me Jason. I hope she flops hugely and has to drag her deeply unpleasant, deluded ego back into the real world pretty quick.

Even if her song flops - and it appear it has? - she might be able to milk the reality tv shows or appear on Loose Women or whatever is on offer. Celebrity Big Brother would be an obvious route to take. I doubt we've seen the last of Honey G!

What about physical sales? How many would it take to get into the top 40 considering streaming is negligible.
There was some people buying it for their kids |

Streaming is negligible? Err no it isn't. Sales in the singles charts are around 75% streaming. Download sales are falling dramatically each year. It's physical sales which are negligable on the singles charts. Very few songs are released on CD single these days.

A lot of people are saying CBB etc but what does she have to offer? She has no personality and comes across as cold, humourless and rather unlikeable so I genuinely can't understand what her selling point would be in a reality tv show

It kinda sums up music nowadays what a joke, I wish I could live in the 80s and 90s for music.
Well at least I have a mute button and playlists

This might sound stupid, but why are people wishing for Honey G to fail? I wasn't a fan of hers on the show but I still wish her well on pursuing her career.
Because she offers nothing of cultural value? Because she's devoid of talent and has no heart or humour to make up for it? Because she's the most crystallised avatar we have available at the moment of everything that has gone wrong with X Factor and, to some extent, the culture industry itself? Because her' humorous' persona is either tragically un-self-aware or based on a somewhat condescending and mocking cultural appropriation that can be argued to be at least a little bit obnoxious if not overtly racist. I mean, I'm pretty indifferent as to whether she does well or whether she bombs. I don't really care either way. My take is that she's a pretty unsophisticated one-note joke that wasn't funny in the first place, let alone for it's fiftieth repetition. But I'm not going to sit here and pretend there isn't a whole myriad of reasons as to why she could be considered legitimately objectionable that are just as valid and probably more so than 'she's just trying to make some money good luck to her lol' |

So many acts this year were thrown under the bus to ensure Honey G stayed out of the bottom 3 for as long as possible, because for some baffling reason Syco thought Honey G was going to be this big star if they could keep her in long enough.
What a flop. |

What a flop. Cowell wasn't bothered about shafting people over to pimp his chosen joke act so I'm delighted it's backfired on him |

Yep. Not only the acts that got screwed over in the live shows but there were some decent overs this year who got dumped at JH/6CC to make room for that mug.

At the end of the day more people wanted to watch Planet Earth 2 instead of Honey G.
How was Honey G going to succeed? It just further highlights how clueless Simon Cowell is. The days of Robson Green & Jerome Flynn are well and truly over, and for that we should be thankful. Reality killed the video star. Streaming killed the reality star. ![]() Nice try though Mr Cowell. Maybe if you pushed someone who is an incredible singer next year, you might get that UK #1 hit you're so desperate for. Until then, make do with what you've got.

The vast majority are male artists not unlike Matt Terry...certainly no Honey G music but is Cowell that far off? |
