OMG! Jedward Are Covering Blink 182


Don’t get me wrong, I freaking LOVE Jedward, so much so that I think if I ever got to meet them I would be a total blubbering mess, but when I discovered they were going to be covering a Blink 182 track, my face went a little grumpy.

Now Jedward, it’s funny when you leap around singing cheesy pop songs… but covering one of the best singles released by the band who pretty much shaped my teenage years… I’ve got to be honest, I’m a bit wary.

I don’t think it’s going to stop me loving them, but it’s kinda like having the arms and legs pulled off your favourite doll. You shouldn’t care, because you’re 22 now and need to acknowledge that you’re too old for dolls, but you cant help but feel bitter that someone could do that to something you love.

Released on July 16th, I’ve got a couple of weeks to get my head around this bizarre news, but what do you make of it? Will you EVER be able to handle Jedward covering the fathers of American punk rock?

Jedward to Pose Naked For PETA?!

I think all my Christmases, Birthdays and Valentines Day’s have come at once, right now, this morning after I have learnt that Jedward are planning to get their kit off for PETA.

So, whilst their music career might have less life left in it that a duck with a brick tied around it’s feet, they could actually be the new Madonna / Brangilina with this new charity work, and I’m all about doing things for charity, especially when it involves naked Jedwards…  it has been a while after all.

Apparently the twins jumped at the chance to do something for a good cause (and in Jedwards case, they probably did, quite literally, jump) and that it wasn’t anything to do with trying to stay ‘famous’ when noone’s really bothered anymore.

Either way, I’m sure now that Justin Beiber has distracted the swarms of young girls who would have been waiting in the bushes outside the studio where Jedward will be snapped, I’ll defo be in with a chance. Quiffs, here I come!

OMG! Jedward Have Their Own Easter Eggs

Fancy sinking your teeth into John or Edward this Easter Sunday? I know I certainly do… and I’m bloody well going to. For £18, you can wrap your lips around Jedward and taste their musical goodness.

Okay, this is starting to sound like a bit of a synopsis for some X Factor porn film, what I’m actually super-excited about is the launch of the new Jedward Twin Easter Egg Packs!

Yes, the boys have hit the music market, won over thousands of teenage fans and taken a spot on my ‘Favourites’ on Twitter, and now they’ve launched a line of Easter eggs… what next, a Jedwardmobile?

Only a limited quantity are available, so make sure you get your paws on one, otherwise you’ll be paying through the nose for them on eBay (like I am right now). So, who will you eat first?

Jedward To Audition For The Hobbit!!!

Goodness Gracious Me! I LOVE Jedward! I mean, I’ve never hidden the fact that I’m a fan of their wackyness, but after hearing that they’d been offered the chance to audition for parts in The Hobbit.

So, John and Edward Grimes are hoping that legendary director, Peter Jackson – yep, the bloke behind the Lord Of The Rings trilogy, King Kong and The Lovely Bones – will see some star quality in them and offer them a major movie role!

Apparently, PJ reckons the big-haired boys could be perfect for his new film, and if they show acting ability, they could be offered the parts of twin dwarves Fili and Kili, who have fairly big parts in the film. Errr, wow!

According to The Sun, a movie insider said: “Peter is keen to see if Jedward have any acting ability. He needs twins for these parts and they have a perfect look for the film. But the characters have very prominent roles. The big question is whether Jedward could settle down on a major shoot because they are so excitable and hyperactive.”

Do YOU think the twins have what it takes? Or will Jedward-mania be over by this time next year?

Joe McElderry & Dale Winton – Separated At Birth?

Now, I’ve made no effort to hide the fact that I want to see the back of Joe McElderry from the X Factor… but as I was watching cheesy TV re-runs over the weekend, as shock thought hit me – how much do Dale Winton and Joe look alike?

My housemates (and avid Joe lovers) refuse to see the similarities, but you’ve got to admit, it’s bloody hard to miss, and I’m pretty sure people will be mistaking Joe for Dale in 10 years time when he’s doing the welcome meetings at Butlins.

There’s no denying that Lloyd Daniels was the right person to leave the show last night, as Joe, Danyl, Olly and Stacey really do have stronger voices, but please – I urge you people of great Britain – we can’t have Joe making it to the final.

It is getting close to the end now, with only two weeks left to go… so who do you want to win? Now that Jedward are gone I really don’t know… I reckon Danyl’s got the best voice, Olly is the coolest but sounds too much like Will Young and Stacey would mean a girl winning for the third year in a row, so I’d like a boy to take it this year.

Lucie Jones Out Whilst John & Edward Saved… WTF?

John and Edward might have been growing on me last week, but after seeing Lucie Jones miss out on another week on the show to that the pair of loons could live for another week has just left me gob smacked.

Lets be honest, I never really liked Rachel Adedeji and was glad to see the back of her last week, regardless of whether or not she had a ‘big voice’,  Stacey Solomon impression on the 24th October was the final nail in her X Factor coffin for me.

But to see another huge vocalist go out of the competition last night when in the ‘sing off’ against Jedward has really left me furious this morning, but it’s not because they got the most public votes that has left me downing the Kenco this morning, but the fact that Simon Cowell didn’t get rid of them.

If you missed the show last night, you would have seen that after each act had sung, Louis voted to keep Jedward, whilst Cheryl and Danni voted to keep Lucie… and as Simon had made no attempt to hide his distaste towards John and Edward over the previous weeks, I felt certain we would finally be waving goodbye to the comedic pair.

But no! Simon decided to take it to deadlock because he didn’t believe “either of them could win the show,” so, rather than keeping the better singer (and the girl who I though had the most chance of winning) he decided to ‘let the public decide’ and inevitably it was Lucie who waved goodbye to her dream.

Lucie and Stacey are clearly the two biggest threats to Simon’s Over 25’s, because I think everyone is pretty certain that Danyl, Olly and Jamie probably have the most chance of winning should Danni lose her girls, and so it seems as though Simon was playing a very tactical game last night.

What’s more, what the hell was Danni doing? Couldn’t she remain dignified over the loss of her act? Whilst Lucie shed a few tears and said “they [the twins] deserve to be here, they work so hard” Danni turned into a mega-bitch and started moaning that we should get rid of all the good singers, and all start rapping next week. Oh come on Danni, grow up.

Either way, I think it’s appalling that the girl I wanted to see in the final three (alongside Olly and Jamie) has lost out on her dream to a pair of lads who can’t really sing, but at the same time, let’s not hate John and Edward, because they’re trying to achieve their dream too, and if more people voted for them than they did for Lucie then fair’s fair, but don’t whine if you didn’t pick up the phone and vote, because essentially that’s making you just as bad as Simon!

So, what are you all thinking? Did Simon know Lucie would be toast and get rid of her to preserve his own acts, and will the rest of the juidges crucify him the second on of his acts get in the final two? One thing’s for sure, it’s a good job it’s not Britain’s Got Talent, because it really doesn’t seem like this show is about talent anymore.

I think I might have a crush on Jedward….

Okay, so The X Factor means sitting at home on a Saturday night with a bottle of wine, and Chinese takeaway and the inevitable argument with my housemate over who’s the fittest guy on the X factor, and although I hate to admit it, I think Jedward might be up there.

There’s no denying that I’d drop them like a pair of hot bricks should Olly Murs come walking along in nothing but a towel, but I’m actually starting to become intrigued by their somewhat bizarre behaviour.

John _&_Edward_07

Seriously, don’t you all want to know what the fuss is about with these two? They’re like the two crazy kids who have no idea at how terrible their singing voices are and how they’re really NOT the sex symbols they think they are… but it’s my fury at them being like that which is making me want to hang out with them even more.

It’s probably the most stupid thing I’ve ever said though, because in college I used to despise this guy (no names….) and he used to really annoy the hell out of me, but then that anger turned into lust, and I ended up asking him out on a date… turned out I was totally right about him and he was quickly ditched… so I imagine Jedward will probably turn out the same way L

But who do you like best? Have a perve on their new pictures and let us know who takes your fancy in our X FactorThe Boys Who’s The Hottest feature.
