Just Surrender!

This is a total guilty pleasure! Shameful almost! But we kinda love it!

Jedward mania gripped the UK while these marginally talented twins competed on the current season of X Factor.

They may not have won the show, but they definitely won in other ways! For example, we haven't mentioned the winner of this year's X Factor - nor are we posting his song - but we just have mentioned Jedward and, now, we present….

Under Pressure/Ice Ice Baby, a mashup of the Queen and Vanilla Ice classics, sung by Jedward - featuring a cameo by Vanilla himself.

This is pure Velveeta!

Enjoy.

      Jedward were the only ones worth watching on x factor and they are the reason I started watching. I love them they are absolutley mental and so much fun to watch. They are not a joke and they have loads of fans, haters need to realise this.

      Also, they are pretty damn HOT!!



    24. 24

    26. 26

      Jedward are the only thing that made last year's X Factor worth watching - they shall soon rule the entire WORLD!!! Mwahahahaha!! *combs hair into a quiff*



    27. 27

      as a british citizen i am trully sorry for the rest of my country who felt the need to inflict this pain on your ears.
      they are possibly the most annoying two people ever created.



    28. 28

      Jedward are fucking brilliant and you need to show their oops video too because they are legends!



    29. 29

      YES PLEASE.



    30. 30

    31. 31

      Re: cdv – somehow, I don't think Freddy would mind those two taking liberties with his song… or anything else for that matter



    32. 32

      It's got No 1 written all over it. yay



    33. 33

      That really sucked. BTW, Velveeta sucks too.



    34. 34

      Took You longer than I thought it would to post something about those Idiots…



    35. 35

      its act listenable!



    36. 36

      Re: stopkillingcatsRe: stopkillingcatsRe: stopkillingcatsRe: stopkillingcatsRe: julia 88
      Not everyone in UK hates them!, infact they have lots of people loving them and they're gonna be the next big thing!!!, do more research before you comment next time!



    37. 37

      John and Edward Grimes are the real deal you better believe it!! 'Marginally talented' pooh - they have the X-factor in Bundles :) Since leaving the show they have built up a loyal fan base with a club act that's fun, inventive and sexy, and have impressed everyone they meet with their energy, enthusiasm, good manners and 'keep it real' attitude. They are about having fun and not taking things seriously, its a message that appeals to all age groups from pre-teens to grandparents.
      They will go as far as their dreams desire; and their fans will go with them.



    38. 38

      they are AMAZING! irish and british ppl r obsessed with them! every1 watched the x factor 4 them!!!!! I LOVE JEDWARD! :)



    39. 39

      YES YES YES oh YES!!!

      JOHN AND EDWARD GRIMES
      FTW!
      F T FUCKING W!!



    40. 40

      I love Perez Hilton for loving Jedward.



    41. 41

      You just love the little boys pedo. This boy band thing you're doing should produce lots of stories about your pedophilia.



    42. 42

      btw i dont appreciate some english people writing on hear that ALL the english hated them, because thats simply NOT TRUE, and your giving the americans the wrong idea.

      jedward split the country in half.
      those who found it hilarious and LOVED them,
      and those who took music too seriously and consiquently HATED them.

      DONT LIE.



    43. 43

      Jedward…as bad as they are…are IRISH!!



    44. 44

      im from ireland and everyone in ireland hates them,theyre kinda making a show of our country, theyre annoying and dont know how to shutup,people are just trying to make money off them, theyre not talented just slightly entertaining and i feel sorry for them :(



    45. 45

      I hate when people rip old songs to try to get in the spotlight, it doesn't work and it sounds fucking stupid, just like you perez



    46. 46

      jedward are legendary!



    47. 47

      I love John and Edward! :D and not everyone hates them in the UK they've got loads of fans! Ice Ice Baby Too Cold Too Cold :)



    48. 48

      seriously it's the x factor, an entertainment show! The ratings dived once they got booted out! Go Jedward



    49. 49

      Re: Lianne_025 – I feel sorry for you because you don't understand the magic of Jedward.

      And FYI I'm Irish and I'm proud of John and Edward and wish them all the best with their careers.



    50. 50

      I LOVE JEDWARD! People that hate them make me laugh. Talents important but then so is charisma. They have the latter



    51. 51

      oh and by the by…im from england so the people that are generalising that 'england think they're a joke'….er no!



    52. 52

      Under pressure was done by DAVID BOWIE - who does your research?



    53. 53

      Re: moviebuff – - again, QUEEN and DAVID BOWIE



    54. 54

      Re: Lianne_025 – eh no love, not everyone in ireland hates them, in fact I only know a handful of people who dont like them, and they tend to be uptight snotty nosed gobshites who dont know how to have a bit of craic. the lads entertained us, and thats what its all about. the ratings dived when they got voted off. for a reason. and don't speak on my behalf just cos your irish.



    55. 55

      they were such bad singers it was pretty hilarious how much people loved them. guess it was the combo of somewhat good looking, if effete guy, twins, improbably hair and the cheese factor.

      i don't get the brits most of the time, but i get why they loved Jedward. they were too cutely ridiculous not to adore…kinda like Alvin and the Chipmunks or a retarded puppy.



    56. 56

      Jedward rock…they are so funny, entertaining and can sing. They are different to the norm and are a breath of fresh air. They were the true winners of the X factor and made the show this year. They are really sweet young kids who are living their dream and have received such hate, people should be ashamed. In the words of Jedward tho they turned the Boo into a woo-hoo! They have brought people together in their support of them-follow them @planetjedward, download their new single on 31st jan which is epic and check out their performance on NTA's as they stole the show. Jedwardmania is here.



    57. 57

      No. Juuuuuuuuuust no.



    58. 58

      yesssssssssss! Jedward finally made the site! I know its wrong but I LOVE them :D



    59. 59

      OMG JEDWARDLOVEFOREVER.

      Seriously, I'm not even kidding. I kind of want their babies.



    60. 60

      …IS IT JUST BE OR DO THEY BOTH LOOK LIKE JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE?



    61. 61

      Is no one else annoyed that this was put under 'Anglophilia' even though they are Irish.. from Ireland…Not Britain!



    62. 62

      Considering they got through to the 7th week in the show, and have since done over 70 shows which have gone down a storm according to all the venues (most popular act among all the x-factor contestants who have gone there) got on to prime-time shows (Graham Norton on New Years Eve in England, The NTA awards, The Late Late Toy Show in Ireland) where many tuned in ONLY to see them (and ratings were among the highest for a long time) I fail to see how many are concluding on here ´everyone in UK hated them. Fair enough if its not to your taste, but you don´t speak for the majority. They have pretty average voices, which they more than make up for in performance. See NTAs for an example - and check out The Jonathon Ross show on Friday (yet another top rating show that wants a piece of The Jedward;) )



    63. 63

      WOW THAT REALLY SOUNDS UMM UGHHH [BADD]

      64

      1990 called… they wan't their song back



    65. 65

      OMG perez im so happy u posted this John and Edward r so sexy i love them THIS IS AMAZING



    66. 66

      Jedward are SEX GODS!, and people in the UK and Ireland love them!. Follow the twins @planetjedward and feel the love!



    67. 67

      The guys are amazing in every respect and the real winners of the X Factor. Unlike most of the other contestants they have not been to stage school, played the clubs, been in a band or have a manager trying to get auditions with the BBC!…The list goes on.. They are as good and in many ways better than the so-called megga artists of today! Go Jedward go.. all the way to No:1



    68. 68

      you havent posted anything about JOE because your obviously stupid. joe has one of the greatest male vocals and could challange some of the greats with his voice.

      jedward were loved by 12 year old girls. they are tone deaf, and can not dance. and perez you giving them the time of day is just SHAMEFUL its always the same you and all media give untalented people like them publicity and hype when they are by far greater talents to be thinking about (and most of them you trash, mariah carey?)



    69. 69

      I'm studying in Ireland right now and I only turned on x-factor to see what Jedward was going to do next. They are LEGENDS!!!



    70. 70

      I'm from England and i looooooove Jedward, as soon as they were voted off X factor it was the dullest show on earth, they were the only ones worth watching. I cant belive people still boo them on stage, there only 18 and seem nice boys. I will buy there music even if no one else will



    71. 71

      People who bitch about the guys having no talent… wouldn’t know talent if it smacked them in the face, they need to get a life and leave these two kids alone. America and the world here they come!

    72. Low says – reply to this


      72

      You sound like you are a bit fool of yourself Perez.

      " for example, we haven't mentioned the winner of this year…" You only need to be on this site if you are a tween star… you love the tweens!!!



    73. 73

      stop posting your pedo fantasies on here P



    74. 74

      LEGENDS! anyone who hasn't seen their performances from xfactor should defo youtube them. especially britney and ghostbusters!! :)



    75. 75

      The boys are wonderful. They are so positive and bring such fun to their performances. Their 'Oops I did it again' performance on the X-Factor was the tv highlight of 2009. They deserve their success, they are hard workers and are living their dream. They are also the prettiest little glitter bunnies I've ever seen.



    76. 76

      Not everybody in England and Ireland hates them actually, most people hated them at the start because they're not 'great' singers and people thought they were a bit obnoxious but when the live shows started, they even began to win over Simon! After all the crap Simon said about them, they finally got him to say he enjoyed their performance and would want to see it again over some of the other performances! They really had such a huge turnaround. The general public went from hating them to loving them and they still love them even now. Obviusly there are certain individuals who hate them but I'm speaking majrity.

      John and Edward are FUCKING AWESOME!!!
      And surprisingly, this isn't bad.



    77. 77

      Quite frankly, if you don't get John and Edward, you are failing at life.



    78. 78

      Jedward are a celebration of everything they tell you shouldn't exist, divine madness, joy, hubris, the fucking wonder and happiness of being alive and they're stars, pure and simple, they have the enigmatic draws-your-attention, want to know more quality only true stars have.

      Joe, the X Factor "winner". Joe who? Nice voice, the charisma of a teenage, midget lesbian, zero star quality.

      Jedward are sweeping all before them and everyone is trailing in their wake. They are stars, you might not like it, but that's what they are.



    79. 79

      This has got to be a joke! Honestly, i love checking this website daily, but at a certain point, one has to just say, "Enough!" First of all, the number of spelling errors is appalling. On top of that, you constantly post news about "K-Stew," despite supposedly disliking her. Of course, she isn't the only celebrity you "dislike" that seems to be given ample attention on your site. Now this post about "Jedward." The winner of this season's X-Factor, Joe McElderry, is actually talented, and quite attractive too. (So, i'm surprised that you dislike him.) John and Edward made a complete mockery of entertainment every time they were allowed to step out on stage. And they are the ones you promote and celebrate on your site? This doesn't make sense.



    80. 80

      I understand that this is pop culture, and that you are quite swept away by it. Unfortunately, it's rather ignorant coverage of pop culture. You may say that it's supposed to be for fun, and that it's all in good humor. However, you expect the world to take you seriously, when you post about Prop 8 and other equal rights related news. How is the world supposed to take you seriously part of the time, when the rest of the time, you promote ignorance and trivial hatred of celebrities? At first, and until now, i really liked the character you have created in you, Perez. Unfortunately, you are a hypocrite. And i don't think the liberal and progressive world can learn that much from a hypocrite. Figure it out, and maintain it. Until then, you're doing more harm than good, for the progression of equal rights. I'm rooting for you! Trust me, i'm on your team! But, we NEED an activist who means what he says 100% of the time. Live your words, Perez! :)



    81. 81

      gggggggggggggggggaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy



    82. 82

      I LOVE JOHN & EDWARD!!! JEDWARD FOREVER!!!!



    83. 83

      Freakin' Love Them!!!



    84. 84

      YAY! I LOVE JEDWARD!
      They were the only reason I watched X Factor in the first place, to see what they would do next. They're so funny :)



    85. 85

      Finally Perez has surrendered to the glorious power of Jedward! These are the most lovable, enthusiastic and charming kids out there right now. What they lack in vocal ability they more than make up for in star quality. Ireland loves Jedward, The UK loves Jedward. Watch out America here they come!!!!!!!!



    86. 86

      LOVE THEM



    87. 87

      we all know joe mcelderry won xfactor !
      i think hes good so why wouldnt you want to share his music on your site rather then these guys, cause honestly they arent that great !

    88. CSM11 says – reply to this


      88

      You people need to stop hating!
      These 2 were the best thing about the X Factor this year true they dont have the best voices but they were easily the most entertaining people on the show they've said themselfs they know there not great singers.
      I dont get the hating though its not them who gacve themselfs a record deal or give them TV appearances people want to see them, they've been given the ball and the running with it fair play i say.



    89. 89

      I used to go to school with them. They were The Grimes Twins then, not jedward!



    90. 90

      now i cant even escape them on perez, today is a sad day



    91. 91

      they only got through the first audition because louis is irish and so are they



    92. 92

      Re: pennieee – 'anglo' means england anyway so even if they were from somewhere in britain outside of england it would be wrong



    93. 93

      oh my god have a slight jedward obsession de are legendary…..and everybody loves d irish so thats jus an added bonus of them :D pure indulgence



    94. 94

      Re: julia 88 – everyone in england does not hte jedward u big drama queen if d did tell me y de performed at the awards n oh d x factor winner didnt ha ha ha…..funny most succesful artists are in fact the worst of singers bt bein an artist involves confidence charisma and humility they have it all my dear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    95. 95

      Re: Ghandicarrots – i have to agree with you there der pure legends :D



    96. 96

      98

      Love it Love it Adore it! Perez needs to work his magic and make these guys HUGE!



    99. 99

      Gotta love them..
      All you people hating on them.. get a life
      Theyre only having fun..
      Theyre not horrible people!!!
      Id never watched X factor before until this year, simply because they were entertaining.. The show needs more people like them!



    100. 100

      I've no doubt Cowell gets down on his knees every night and thanks God for Jedward, without them the series would have bombed. If his planet-wide X Factor empire is to stand any chance of succeeding and not proving a billion-dollar bust he's going to need a Jedward in every series in every country and several Jedward's in the US.
      Jedward are one in a million and they made tens of millions for the X Factor, they're like God, if they didn't exist we'd have to invent them, though thankfully we don't have to - they're here, to stay.
