Exclamation Jedward’s jungle bid
Quote:
JEDWARD were last night on the brink of pocketing £50,000 each to replace Jordan on I'm A Celebrity.
And Dancing On Ice host Phillip Schofield declared he is also keen for the twins to appear on his show in January.

ITV bosses approached John and Edward's X Factor mentor Louis Walsh yesterday in an outrageous bid to sign them up for the jungle.

He flew back to Dublin last night to convince the twins' parents, Brian and Susan Grimes, that joining I'm A Celeb was the best move for their fledgling showbiz career.

ITV chiefs have issued a strict deadline of 5.30pm today for Louis to persuade them.

Simon Cowell also insisted it was a "great idea" for them to join the show in the Australian outback.

A source close to the twins told The Sun: "ITV are determined to get the twins. A flight can be arranged in time so they could be in camp by this weekend.

"It would be a nailed on ratings-winning coup if Louis manages to persuade them it's a good move for their career.

"Louis still believes ITV haven't offered enough money. But the twins were completely unknown a couple of months ago and everyone around them is saying they should make hay while the sun shines."

GMTV host Ben Shepherd asked Jedward yesterday morning if they would be interested in joining the jungle.

John asked: "Can we do that? Are we celebrities?" Edward added: "I'm A Celebrity - do we have that title?

"We're up for any challenge, we've got to think about it together and see if it's for us."

I'll be very surprised if it happens as I'm sure it's against the X Factor contract but since it's an ITV show it could very well happen.....It's EXTREMELY unlikely though.

Whaaat! That would be too funny if they go in, finally get them out one show, just to be popped into another

Haha, they would probably win it if they went it!

I'd definitely accept it - they need as much publicity right now as they can get so they don't fade back into obscurity, because there's really no chance of them getting the spotlight back.

Be foolish not to do it, thats if ITV do want them for the show..

I hope they do take part and as a double act so both do any tasks together.. Should be good.

It'd be nice if they go there...and never come back. Lose them in the jungle for the safety of the ears of Humanity.

That is a matter of definition. I don't think most people in this country would class those two as celebrities. That would certainly cheapen the word celebrity - the word would no longer mean a thing!

No "real" celebrities go on that show anyway, lets be honest! Atleast we'd get a good laugh from the Twins WooHoo!!!

Jedward FTW!!

Seriously J&E have been on the front cover of at least one national UK newspaper everyday for the last 2 months and they've performed to an audience of 14 million people every weekend for 2 months.Everyone is talking about them.
They are far more famous then anyone in that jungle.
