Rightly so.

Rightly so.

Viewers of The X Factor were left shocked and angered by the fact that Sharon Osbourne decided to put through Honey G to the live finals.

What’s more, she was chosen over Irish singer Janet Grogan meaning Janet missed out on a place in the final stage of the competition. After Honey G performed both Sharon and her guest judge Robbie Williams admitted that she had a “different talent” but they still put her through anyway.

Initially, Honey G wasn’t even supposed to be at judge’s houses having failed to make one of Sharon’s six chairs. But after her fellow contestant Ivy Grace had an issue with her visa Sharon decided to bring her back for judge’s houses.

That was controversial enough at the time but now she’s taken a spot on the live finals which belonged to some of the other hopefuls, including Dubliner Janet Grogan.

People are raging that Honey G made it through but especially because it was instead of Janet.

The Tallaght native posted a video message to Instagram thanking everyone for the support.
