No, i really really don't like them, i don't think they would boost ratings that much, their fan base, 14 year olds isnt going to help BB, all too tired by 11pm when BB finishes

Well that's bollocks, I'm 14 and stay up to 4AM every night in Summer to watch Big Brother - I know loads of 14 Years old and younger that stay up well past 11PM just on a general night.

We're not 9.

But generally 14 year olds isn't what BB should be aiming for.

Lol last year in school we got to watch live feed of the house at lunch

[Shaun]

I don't find them entertaining in the slightest, so no.

[Locke.]

It's not like they'll bring in millions of viewers.. they aren't even popular.

They've had 1 single that charted well an am sure that that was only in the chart for about 2 weeks

Album of original songs out in August.

Don't underestimate the popularity of the Jedward.

And for anyone who thinks they'll be continuously hyper and annoying well you might just get a pleasant surprise. Two really lovely down to earth lads who are actually quite normal when they are John & Edward. They will win you over.

Other countries don't matter, it will be judged on UK ratings. And pretty sure that some parts of Ireland don't have channel 5?

Some people have always underestimated the popularity of Jedward, most people said they'd be gone and forgotten about within 6 months of the X Factor series finishing after they were in, they are still here and still even more so in demand for TV.

They will never win the people over who won't give them a fair chance and don't want to be seen as liking them at all,however I agree with all your post above.
I have seen them live twice and not one person at those concerts didn't have a great night of entertainment from them.

Jedward are true showbusiness entertainers,their career does not just revolve around getting hit records, they have in fact had 2 top 40 records in the UK and a top 20 album too.(not just one single getting to number 2), they are however raking in the millions and demand for them from the UK,Ireland(obviously) and now Europe too is ever increasing.

Even though I don't have a high opinion of them and their appearance on BB11 made me cringe I'm gonna say yes because they are still talked about and could be entertaining so could be good publicity for launching BB on Channel 5.

But they do irritate me and I hope they wouldn't be like they were on BB11 all the time.

exactly even if you hate them alot of people who may not watch BB love them and would watch purely because they're in it

are you their publicist? their Mother? Louis 'sexpest' Walsh?

Either way, please stop posting hype and lies: chart peaks - Germany(12), Sweden(11), Austria(3), UK(40).

But yeah, very popular in Ireland Ill give you that. Now if only they'd just stay there...

[georgehudson]

However much some people hate them, they will be good publicity for the show. BUT WE NEED AMY CHILDS IN THERE!!!

[Harry!]

Yes

Yes and I hope they win!

[Gillian-73]

I'm not a fan they annoy me greatly but think it wouldn't be a bad thing for the show as a whole! i'd expect them to do i'm a celeb if any show though

[BBDodge]

Not for £1 million. Only real celebs should command fees like that.

[alc09]

A new low for Big Brother.

[King Gizzard]

Can't watch them two, can't stand them, do my nut in so bad. ...for that reason no I don't

[Kerry]

No

Though have to admit I'd be intrigued to see them once the hyper act is dropped. NO ONE is like that all the time

If Jedward are then they need help.......

[King Gizzard]

Remember them murdering all the small things last summer in the house, and jumping into people

Their ignorance towards other people is unbelievable, and not in a funny way

yes they definitely have a nasty side theyve obviously been ordered to suppress. In the auditions stages of XFactor they were very rude and arrogant; singing over other people and being generally obnoxious. Then by time they'd come back for the live shows they changed completely after they'd obviously been given some coaching on how to win over the public. Suddenly they were all humble and polite. Total act.

Plus I did them a disservice earlier suggesting they got to No75 with their 2nd single.

It was actually No80.

Exactly, they'd crack after a while and be absolutely vile

[Kerry]

Probably break them. Might be a good idea afterall......
