They do seem to "get it" sometimes though. When they were on Buzzcocks you could see the emotion in their faces when they got dissed, they like went really quiet and looked like they were gonna cry

[BBGermany]

they are Reality wh0res
What have they done beside reality tv

all I hear are crickets

[Christmas Dynasnow]

2 lovely boys

[Zippy]

Yeah their music career and ITV2 show really took off in the UK. Not!

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.

They have no solid career. Just jobbing z-listers like Katona. They go wherever a check is waved.

Wouldn't that be a spelling Nazi?

Yes a few hundred thousand here, a few hundred thousand there!

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

as soon as they hit their 20's I think we will see a massive decline in popularity

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! ) look fondly upon these lads.

You're so defensive 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.

[CaudleHalbard]

You're so defensive

Not at all. I am highly amused!

I'll bet I'm right about most of those who fall into the Jed-hate category.

Typo... of course it's Barack. But thanks for taking the trouble to correct me. I'll be sure to do the same for you :-)

[Stu]

Shut the front door. EastEnders is cracking. Jedward are knobends.

[Legend killer]

It's cause there BLACK

Oops wrong thread

[▲¯\_(ツ)_/¯▲]

Fire....thats the only solution

Kill them with fire

[joeysteele]

Time is far from running out for them,it's likely just starting in many areas of show business. They will be in demand even more after CBB no matter whether they win it or not.

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.

[chuff me dizzy]

Where do I start? I have never in my life known such a set of oddballs, they are not funny, they are weird, they are childish annoying silly,attention seeking brats,they do not entertain me,they sicken me,the are camera hogging in a stupid ,pathetic way ,maybe they were spoilt as children but they are GROWN MEN ,its time they acted like it ,hopefully they will sicken the public so much in there(EVERYONE Ive spoke to HATE them and agree with me they are ruining the show) that they will drop away after the show is over ,and good riddance to the talentless idiots

[Peter.]

Agreed

[Good King Glennceslas]

When the idiots hit their mid twenties, work will dry up and so will the supply of extra strong hairspray.

[Rustic bauble]

They are harmless tbh... but they are in their own little world... find it hard to interact and totally selfish and spoiled.

To seperate them would be cruel cos I dont think they can exist without each other.

Its almost sad....

[Lee.]

Dear god! Tonights the first I've watched since launch, and I can't bear them!

[seanraff07]

Used to hate them, don't mind them so much now... maybe I'm just getting used to them

At least 30 people I know who didnt care for them before are saying much the same as you are saying there.
Some people just haven't liked them from the start and will think it totally uncool to even ever give them any credit.

I hope if I have children one day that people won't say the rotten things about them that some are saying about these 2 19 year old lads who they have little idea of how their parents want them to be, or because they act immature.

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.

I'll join Planet Jedward any day, than join some of those people, Planet Jedward seems a happy ,fun seeking, zany but decent place.

[Valdora]

There had to be a middle ground between overgrown 10 year olds and Chavs Joey.

Some people just have manors and social awareness. Doesn't make them agros.
