Twitter left heartbroken as Honey G leaves the X Factor

She had a good run.

Anyone who has seen the X Factor this year – and, quite frankly, anyone who hasn’t – will be familiar with Honey G.

The rap sensation has won over audiences with her remarkable talents.

She is the breath of fresh air that this year’s competition needed.

It’s been tough not to root for the musical genius.

She got in on the mannequin challenge trend lately, and people were thrilled at the originality of it all.

Even being interrupted by a stage invader wasn’t enough to dull the praise of the singer, real name Anna Georgette Gilford.

Sadly for Ms G (is that the correct nomenclature? We’ll run with it), her fairytale run came to an end this weekend as she left the X Factor with victory in sight.

Naturally, those watching her exit on television were devastated.

How on earth were they going to cope? And on the same night that Strictly Come Dancing lost the enigma that is Ed Balls.

People were desperately coming to terms with the fact that those dulcet tones would never grace our screens again. Well, apart from in the inevitable medley at the start of this year’s final.

Farewell, Honey G. The G stands for ‘gone but not forgotten’.
