Jedward- Why are they so disliked...? [Archive] - ThisisBigBrother.com

they have a very limited act and its appeal is mainly to small children. The reason tonight was good is because we saw the kind of human interaction that they are completely incapable of.

They belong on some kids TV show that revolves around pranks and wacky jump around behaviour.

Could it be the energetic hyperactivity?
Could it be the complete lack of talent?
Could it be the vast ignorance of the world?
Could it be the self-delusion?
Could it be the incessant chatting?

No idk either lol x

and all this too

It actually annoys me how they talk like they actually have talent and deserve success. Utterly deluded.

They aren't really. They have a big fanbase and that's what's made them millionaires while still in their teens.

But it is 'cool' to express loathing of Jedward. I'm sure they are crying about it................all the way to the bank!! ;)

Indeed so.

But the contrast between Jedward and Lucien (also 19) is rather noticeable.

But I have the feeling Lucien is even more odd than Jedward. Hmmm...!

why are fans like you so obsessed with referencing how much money they make? Its really weird.

Firstly because you have NO CLUE what they make other than tabloid rumours...which are always BS. And secondly because you say it as if it somehow means they have talent or substance. No, it means they have a good manager who can sell any old crap.

And I do not believe they have a big fanbase. They do not sell records in the UK at all.

Me neither

Looking at their commercial deals they do not look like huge money spinners. And they are certainly not making money from their music.

Plus the money they do make is halved, taxed, Louis-fied and then they have to pay all their expenses. Theyre probably left with just enough to keep them in hair gel for a year.

People really need to stop believing what they read. Its mostly PR nonsense to up a celebs profile and worth.

CaudleHalbard

Who said I was a fan? I am just responding to all the crap that is written about Jedward being "loathed"

It is pretty well known that Jedward are millionaires - and why would they not be? They charge something like £40,000 for an appearance at private functions. They are making £500,000 for their CBB appearance - not bad for 3 weeks work.

No, it means they have a good manager who can sell any old crap.

Hardly. Louis Walsh would not have taken them on unless he thought they could make money for him.

They do not sell records in the UK at all.

You have evidence? Anyway, I don't think their record sales contribute much to their wealth.... largely an irrelevance to them in terms of money.

I very much doubt Jedward are millionaires.

They themselves said they were millionaires...... well over a year ago.

I see why youd love them or hate them.

Really did not like them myself in TXF as they were quite obnoxious and well, talentless, however they have a good TV personality and I like how they dont care what people think and battle on. Nice guys at core and theyve grown on me since TXF... scrap the music though.

joeysteele

22-08-2011, 08:40 AM

I very much doubt Jedward are millionaires.

They have amassed in earnings near 3 million each so far.They hardly touch it though.So it's actually growing every year too to much more.

People were like this with Ant and Dec too,they had a really daft children's programme covering most of Saturday Morning that was slated by people and they got at Ant and Dec too, they also dabbled in the pop music area too with fair success but never really lighting the charts up.

What happened to them though, they became the 'biggest' presenting team on TV,I can see Louis Walsh keeping Jedward in the spotlight,then steering them to becoming like in the status of Ant and Dec.

Many people don't like Jedward but for every 1 person that doesn't there are likely 2 to 3 who do like them.
In my family for instance ages run from (ignoring the babies) 5 to 90 and the vast majority of those like Jedward,

I am 19, my sis in laws in their 20s and 30s and cousins betwween 14 and 35(male and female) have all been to see them in concert and really enjoyed them.

The main reason people get at Jedward are because most of them are the people who never liked them on X Factor anyway and they near all said, they would be gone and forgotten about within 6 to 9 months after X Factor finished that year.

What irks them is that they are still in the spotlight, even more so now, that they have amassed millions between them and there is bo sign of the demand for them on TV to be abating,in fact after CBB it's likely to increase.

Jedward have a syndrome. I'm not sure what it is, but it is definitely something. Not sure it's right to be gawping at the mentally ill on a tv show. To quote Radiohead... They're so *******ing special.

We do not really know what these two men (they aren't boys as has been said) are really like as individuals. All we see is them jumping around like 9yr olds. I doubt as individuals they'd be doing much jumping and messing a around and then we might get a glimpse of their true personalities.

There was a 3-part documentary on Jedward a few months ago - I expect there are bits of it on YouTube. In their own minds they are rock stars and, be in no doubt, they seem deadly serious about it.

"Dress it up"? There is no need to.

They are two teenagers who have been highly successful, financially speaking, in fields other than the singing for which they first came into prominence. Advertising, modelling etc.

I've never been introduced to the President of the United States and neither will 99.999% of people on this forum. Jedward have.

I do realise all this increases the hate factor for those who disliked them from XF. I'm feel pretty neutral about them myself, but just trying to introduce an element of reality.

Get a reality check. They make money from doing bits and bobs that Louis can scrape together to milk them(ahem) for every penny he can while they can still get away with acting like 10 year olds. At 19 times running out.

Many people would like "bits and bobs" like that. I'll bet XF winners like Joe McElderry and Matt Cardle would love a few.

Quite possibly but, with careful investment, they could retire in a year or two and never have to work again.

But there again there has always been talk about them being the new Ant and Dec.... who themselves were hardly enormously successful pop stars. Not too sure about that: they'll need to get themselves under more control.

It strikes me that those who dislike Jedward are probably the same group that dislike Justin Bieber. Primarily young or youngish males who loathe the fact that their girlfriends (both real and fantasy! :D) look fondly upon these lads.

You're so defensive :joker: Are you related to them or something? And we don't care how much money they make they still make it shamelessly. And there is no way they would ever become anything like Ant and Dec. Best they can hope for is CBBC 6am slot or something, and that's being kind.

Darryn seems to be not far off the latter, himself!

It's just I do not accept the premise of this thread that there is general "dislike" of Jedward. A part of the public do, certainly - and I have suggested which part. I'd say it was a quite small minority but it is over-represented on forums like this because it is seen as cool to be Jedward bashers.

No,I predict that John Paul Henry Daniel Richard Grimes and his twin Brother Edward Peter Anthony Kevin Patrick Grimes aka Jedward are going to be around in show business and TV for many years to come and likely decades. Very deservedly too.

Well I have come across many adults not around 20, but in their 40s and 50s who act very immature,I have also come across 12 year olds who are far more mature than some adults.
There is no norm as to when people should or do have sex,or for that matter be deadly serious all the time.Jedward are having fun and it will always be I guess that some people find it easier to bring them down than see the good that's there too.

If they were 2 19 year olds squandering their money and not saving it, constantly getting girls and then dumping them,being sick all over the streets,insulting people and causing damage to hotel rooms, people would say fame had gone to their heads and what a disgrace they are.
Since they do the opposite they still put them down.

wow you're seriously deluded! There is massive dislike for them actually. It's their fans that are the loud minority. Making OTT claims about their popularity and worth.

Truth is they dont sell records(new album in with a bullet at 34 this week) or successful TV shows of their own. They are jobbing z-listers and a show full of nonentities and minor celebs is all they stand a chance of winning. Because nobody votes on these shows anymore besides brainwashed fans. So they have an advantage having a fanclub of rabid voters.

After tonight peoople should see why :bored: Being asked to tidy up and then going off and putting on some stupid matching suits, spilling things from the fridge and just leaving there (that actually really annoyed me for some reason, especially when Kerry had to clean it up). Pulling up Amy's thong and then not even listening to anyone when they told him it was wrong, just went on about their stupid show :bored:

They make me feel uncomfortable.Sharing baths,washing eachothers hair,the jealousy when one of them was in bed with Amy, the way he pushed Paddy of when Paddy went to get on top of one of them.God, they give me the creeps.

Insest?

*incest

we haven't seen hardcore evidence as yet. But you do get weird vibes...

I think their bond has certainly impacted on their individual sexualities.

Why are Jon and Edward so disliked by the public...?Annoying, Talentless,do you need anymore reasons. They'll probably win, but not with any votes from me. I'm a gay woman a & i'll tell you something, i'd vote for Paddy to win over those two wastes of space.

pity more like. Who aspires to act half their age and have a twin physically and emotionally attached?

they have a sad future when they can no longer get away with their behaviour.

CaudleHalbard

Nope. I would say deffo envy......... two main reasons:

(1) They have made more money, by 19, than most of us will make in a lifetime of work. They could retire tomorrow and never have to work again.

(2) They have never, since birth, experienced loneliness or lack of companionship.

How many people can say that? :)

Something wierd about two post pubescent males totally not interested in sex.

Unless of course they do each in other in some kind of Narcissistic love fest each night.

I wonder who bats first?

Hey there Joeysteele,just popped in to see how lively the boards are,are you liking this BB,not made my mind up yet,anyway hope you are ok.

Kazanne, hello, how are you, I am loving CBB but what a miss you have been,I am really glad to see you posting again.

I hope you will be back regularly again, you have been a massive miss to me personally and others.
Did you catch Ben on bigbrothersbitontheside on Sunday.

Aaw,it's really great to have you back Kazanne.Really great.

having an identical twin can be just as much a curse as a blessing. You may wanna read up about it. And you can be close to siblings and others without sharing a bed or a bath.

Following your logic then conjoined twins must have a wonderful life; you know, never being short for company.

And you should remember they can't fill all of each others needs. At some point theyll probably fantasize about killing the other just to be set free.

Looking at all the threads made as to JEDWARD on here and all the many comments contained therein, it seems that most people on here,even the ones who don't really care for them,cannot stop talking about them, so as Simon Cowell would say, all publicity is good publicity, it gets people taking notice of you and talking about you, CBB has sure worked that spell again for Jedward even with the people who cannot stand them.

Yes. An old saying is "There's no such thing as bad publicity". ;)

I feel I would end up screaming at them but...................

Comments from those who have actually met them in person suggest they are two of the nicest, most genuine people one could hope to meet.

I have not met them but I would not based my assessment on heavily edited HLs from CBB.

What you have been told is 100% correct.
They are extremely polite and friendly after concerts and when you meet them,they take time to talk to you and are so approachable too. That comes from muself who has seen them 'live' 6 times now and with other friends and family with me at the concerts have yet to find anyone disappointed in their shows, their energy and determination to please.

I don't hate them. I find them amusing and innocent. I loved when Darryl asked if Jedward if he messed up the kitchen and Jedward just smacked his face and ran off into the bedroom continuing to smack faces. The reaction on Darryls face was classic. I laughed my butt off.

does it really matter whether you like them or not?? if you dont like them then you are never gonna meet them so you shouldn't be bothered about them. anyway it doesnt matter if they are millionaires or not,, they have gone onto xfactor themselves and have done something to change their lives which not a lot of people who are 19 can say. one minute they are a couple of normal people the next they are millionaires, if you dont like them,, do you think that they are gonna care at all??

Excellent post, wish I had thought of saying that one,well said.

theyre on Big brother which is all about being liked or disliked. That's what these forums are for.

and no they don't care because theyre too slow, retarded and self obsessed to care. Thats what makes them so obnoxious.

A clever point and indeed true .... but a bit too clever for its own good ..since you are missing the very point and driver of Big Brother and indeed of this very forum...people do have likes and dislikes and want the fun of expressing them (whether it matters or not) ....

Every single act in all elements of showbusiness past and present,whether it be Morecambe and wise through to Oasis,have like Jedward, those who like them and those who don't,no act/singer/performer is immune from that.

I am surprised people who claim to hate Jedward even watch them,seemingly watching their every move,they appear to know more about them than some Jedward fans.

its taken all my strength to even bother with the show since knowing they were on it

I actually use their airtime to do other things as I truly have no interest watching them.

26-08-2011, 09:29 PM

So now we have 'how do you know what they are doing, hmm?!' and 'well ... that bloke from Oasis likes them!' to add to our growing list of stupid arguments. Plenty of people in the entertainment industry probably hate them but can't be arsed making a point of speaking out about it or don't want to because they are 19/would be bad for their career.

To hell with this on season bollocks. It's been a week and I can't take a second more of it. I'll be in the wrestling thread if anyone wants me.

I wouldnt go that far. When I first heard they were going in I thought I would be like that though, but Im up and down with them at the min. Sometimes I do think they are funny, but most of the time they just irritate me.

It annoys me no end though the way everything they do it excused 'because they are just kids'. 19 is not a child :bored:

But that's exactly what most of the so called haters do,they watch everything with Jedward on it whether its Loose Women,buzzcocks or their own series they had, then they slam them on here.Often making slurs on the people who like them too.

I know they are on BB, I am watching it too,'not' though just to constantly criticise the people on it,but to see how people react in a different setting to their usual one.

I can honestly say I see no point in that whatsoever and anyone who does do that needs to get a life :/

I dont get why someone would purposely watch something with people they dislike in it, just to moan D:

I know nothing of their background or the music they have recorded/released.

I never watched then on X Factor and only originally caught them on 8 out of 10 cats. I thought they were hilarious on that show.

There's something really odd about these two that has me drawn to watching everything they do or say. It's like watching Jackie Stallone a few years back, you realise she is a freak with all that surgery yet you find yourself staring at who she is and what she looks like.

Up to now I'm enjoying their crazy childish behaviour which is something I really wouldn't have predicted from the night of the launch.

I think we should be thankful that Sam Pepper didn't have an identical twin....:joker:
