Honey G has been booted off the X Factor and fans cannot believe it.

The rapping hopeful failed to win one of Sharon Osbourne’s seats in the Six Chair Challenge, despite warning the judge not to let “the next Jay Z slip through her fingers”.

Seconds later, she was trending on Twitter as fans rushed to comment.

Many were relieved that Mrs O hadn’t succumbed to Honey’s entertainment value and let her go forwards.

But others felt the singer added something to the competition and would be missed.
