X Factor star Honey G says ‘no one recognises me’ after major fitness transformation and weights workouts

X FACTOR legend Honey G has admitted that her fans no longer ‘recognise her’ after she underwent a huge fitness transformation.

The rapper from North West London has found a new gym routine to help keep her in shape.

Honey G recently shared a mirror selfie she took after working up a storm to keep her fitness in check.

The star informed her fans of her new exercise routine in the caption of the image: “Been hitting the gym a lot recently with Strength and high resistance training. It’s helped me to completely change my shape and given me body confidence as a result.”

However, despite improving her health and wellness, she admitted in a chat with the Daily Star it had come at a cost for her public image.

She confessed that her new figure has meant that many fans no longer recognise the star when she is out and about.

Honey G, real name Anna Georgette Gilford, told the publication:  “I had a personal trainer for a year and a half, almost two years and we worked a lot on strength training and I started to see, coupled with all the running I was doing, I started to see my body change.

“That’s why not a lot of people recognise me in the street anymore, it says online I’m unrecognisable which is true.

“But yeah I’m not saying I miss being chased through a shopping centre by school kids but seriously, in all honesty, when I started to see body shape change, it spurred me on even more.”

Keen to keep up her fitness, she revealed that she had set herself a goal to achieve a ‘six-pack’.

Honey, who released a single with Simon Cowell’s label following her controversial stint on the ITV talent show, confirmed she was taking part in a six-pack challenge to achieve her desired look.

She said:  “Funnily enough, I’d quite like to do the six-pack challenge which my running coach told me about. Apparently, its a thing, you do it and you get a six-pack and I’m like ‘Well, how do I sign up for this?’

“I really want abs, I do have a little bit of stomach fat and it really bothers me. Now, I’ve come this far and changed the shape of my body.

“Underneath the weight is quite an athletic person because I used to be a tennis athlete when I was very young and there is an athletic build under there, and I’d quite like to explore that.”
