ESCaddict posted what I felt was a pretty fair and objective critique of Jedward's entry and managed to attract himself a stream of abuse from the pre pubescent morons that keep these idiots in a career

The case here is that if you listen to song, it's cheap, but- if you watch it on TV then it's a smash hit for eurovision, those guys are made for live shows, not for radio, and in eurovision this could work really really good, exspecially counting in how many boring and medium songs there are this year, their singing definetly is not worse than Sweden's at least.

John has problems with his vocal chords... (according to RTE) avoiding operating because of Eurovision

These guys are truly a phenomenon, hate them or love them.
The brand JEDWARD has really become solid.
Which NSC-entry can claim that they get Time-magazine coverage?

'Time' catches up on Jedward
By NIAMH HORAN Entertainment News Reporter

Sunday March 27 2011

IT'S famed for featuring the world's most influential people, from Einstein to Barack Obama. And now Time Magazine is to feature Jedward.

The prestigious magazine flew over a top writer to meet the boys and chart their phenomenal success.

Jedward will be in the May issue of the magazine, which has a global readership of more than 24 million.

The feature will detail their rise to fame, from crashing out of the X Factor to representing their country in the Eurovision Song Contest.

As a source close to the twins explained: "The boys are delighted. They feel that when they're being featured in 'Time Magazine', they've finally made it."

On a tv show interviewed by Vincent Browne, a journalist known for chats with politicians and covering serious matters. Of course, the total interview was hilarious!

It's the work of dummies as Jedward immortalised in wax
By Mark Folens


Saturday March 26 2011

Jedward get moulded at the National Wax Museum in Dublin yesterday. What a pair of dummies.


Eurovision hopefuls Jedward stopped by the National Wax Museum in Dublin yesterday, where measurements and moulds were taken to help create sculptures of the 'X Factor' stars.

Whether or not the wax from their hair will be used has not been revealed.

Fans of the Lucan, Co Dublin, twins will be able to pose alongside John and Edward all year round when the duo joins the likes of U2 and Boyzone in the iconic museum.

For those who can't wait for the sculptures, Jedward can be seen live in concert at the end of April when they kick off their Bad Behaviour Tour.

Jeds ad £1/2m to their £3m pot By COLIN ROBERTSON

CANNY Jedward have sold their Irish Eurovision entry for use on a car advert for a whopping £500,000.
The annoying twins, 19, have licensed their song Lipstick for Hyundai's commercial in South East Asia, which also features Leonardo DiCaprio.

It launches on April FOOLS Day, but the Dublin lads will have the last laugh - they are on track to make £3million this year.

A pal said: "We didn't think anyone in that part of the world had heard the song. The lads are caning it in Europe ahead of Eurovision, so it was a surprise to be asked by Hyundai.

"But the money is good so whatever happens in Düsseldorf in May they'll be winners."

Jedward's boss, Louis Walsh, has made them a fortune. They are on a huge tour, selling out venues in the UK and Ireland, and made another £500,000 from ads for a finance website.

Jedward - John and Edward Grimes - are easily the biggest earners from X Factor 2009, won by Joe McElderry. Rumours suggest Geordie Joe, 19, faces the axe from his record label.

I seriously hope Jedward will not make the final. I mean COME ON! they sing like a cat at Guantanamo while getting run over by a car :D

I am convinced that the juries will slaughter this song. It's all down to the viewers.

Really a crazy song by Ireland, comparable maybe with Dustin the Turkey..:D

That 2 boys are really mad, and the LIVE show is awful, unfortunately for the song himself, wich is good. Maybe they will pick a place in the Final, but a weak place to have there, 15-20.
