X Factor\u00a0star\u00a0<\/strong>Honey G rocked a completely new look after ditching her old hairstyle and embarking on a fitness journey.<\/p>\n The rapper, 42, who came in fifth place as a novelty act on the ITV talent competition in 2016, looks completely different after a style overhaul.<\/p>\n Gone are the tracksuits, shades and poker-straight black hair, that may or may not have inspired Dua Lipa\u2019s Brit performance a few years back, and in its place Honey has opted for a more natural look.<\/p>\n The performer is now mostly seen wearing her natural brunette locks curly, while her preferred outfit choice is jeans matched with a nice top.<\/p>\n Honey, real name Anna Georgette Gilford, has also lost 2-stone after discovering a love of exercise in 2021.<\/p>\n And it\u2019s not just a quick treadmill sesh at the gym: she\u2019s recently completed four triathlons and a 20-mile run.<\/p>\n Her newfound love of triathlons happened completely \u2018by chance\u2019, Honey revealed last year.<\/p>\n \u2018I never knew I would become this passionate about a type of sport and I have truly fallen into triathlon by chance,\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n The singer also said that the weight loss had given her \u2018the confidence to put myself out there\u2019.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Honey\u2019s goal is to keep on tackling marathons, with the London one in her sights next.<\/p>\n \u2018I have a strict routine and you have to be really disciplined,\u2019 she told\u00a0The Sun.<\/p>\n \u2018Especially with the marathon training. I\u2019m following a strict training plan, and you have to do a long run so I\u2019m running two or three times a week.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CqXsT8dsIID\/<\/p>\n \u2018I did a 20 mile race in October and I was absolutely cream-crackered after that and literally couldn\u2019t even walk. But now everything is looking good and my training is going very well.\u2019<\/p>\n But fans need not worry that she\u2019s completely given up her music career.<\/p>\n \u2018I\u2019m balancing my fitness with my music, and I\u2019m doing a lot of running in the evenings and then I\u2019m in the studio during the day, so there\u2019s loads going on,\u2019 she added.<\/p>\n \u2018I\u2019m hoping to release something that I think is going to do well and I\u2019m exploring my singing side too. You\u2019ve seen me rapping a lot but I\u2019m singing too, so it\u2019s a bit of both.\u2019<\/p>\n Although Honey G was signed by Simon Cowell\u2019s label Syco, she was dropped when her debut The Honey G Show flopped.<\/p>\n In her X Factor audition she famous said she was \u2018sweet like Honey G\u2019 before launching into a rendition\u00a0Work It by Missy Elliott.<\/p>\n Got a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n
