Ryan Lawrie thinks Honey G is fake

Ryan Lawrie thinks Honey G has a "split personality."
The 20-year-old ‘X Factor’ contestant – who was given the boot from the competition in Sunday (20.11.16) night’s episode after losing the sing off against the rapper – is convinced his former rival has a game plan and has adopted a secret street alter ego.
Speaking on ‘This Morning’ on Monday (21.11.16), he said: "I feel like she’s a Keith Lemon [portrayed by Leigh Francis], like that’s a character you’re playing.
"I didn’t see her a lot, she goes in her room and rehearses a lot. I still feel as though there’s two sides to her, it’s like a split personality kind of thing. Sometimes she’ll be really posh then other times she’ll be doing the street talk. I think she’s really smart and she knows what she’s doing and it’s working really well, she’s in the quarter final now."
Now that he’s been axed from show, Ryan – who was mentored by Nicole Scherzinger – would love to see his girlfriend Emily Middlemas go on to win the series and can’t wait to take part in the famous ‘X Factor’ tour next year with his beautiful partner.
He explained when asked who he wants to win the show: "I hope Emily can go on to win it now, definitely. From the start we talked about it, like if we had to sing against each other in the sing off it would be horrible but we would just do the best we can and be supportive. We’re going on tour together, and she’s in the quarter-final."
And, although his journey on the show has come to an end, Ryan is adamant his career in music is only just taking off the ground and there’s plenty more in store for him.
Taking to his Twitter account after his appearance on the brunchtime show, Ryan wrote: "Thank you to everyone who supported me. The hard work starts now! Get my songs in the right hands. Get some hits out there. Lets do this (sic)."
