It’s official – rapping recruiter Honey G has left the building and this year’s X Factor competition for that matter.

Honey G, the alter ego of Anna Georgette Gilford, managing director of recruitment firm ARG Search, faced The X Factor judges for a successive week but this time her luck ran out as she was booted out of the competition with music mogul Simon Cowell casting the final vote to send her home.

But fear not! Put away those black armbands, at least for now. There remains one recruitment reality TV contestant for recruiters to cheer on in the form of IBM recruitment agent Trishna Thakrar who survived another round of The Apprentice this past Thursday.

As for Honey G – we’re sure this isn’t the last we’ve seen of her.
