Queen backs Jedward to win!04 Nov 09

Before you start guffawing with amazement that our Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth is an avid X Factor fan, (which she probably is), we are talking about Sir Brian of May… the curly-haired rock supremeo of Queen fame.

According to some reports John and Edward ‘murdered’ the Queen classic We Will Rock You on Saturday night, and Simon Cowell predicted the performance would destroy Queen’s career. But guitar-god Brian May, who wrote the anthem, has come out in defence of Jedward claiming he’s heard far worse renditions of his song.

“I thought they put so much energy and life into it,” he told The Sun newspaper: “God bless, and good luck to them!”

In a week that has seen Louis compare his group to Madonna, and Peaches Geldoff wear a ‘Jed We Can’ t-shirt in support of the duo... perhaps a change is in the air for our madcap twins with the spiked-up hair.

finally some people that realise john n edward are TERRIBLE, this is supposed to be a singing competion, and for someone like jamie to go this week and they werent even in the bottom 2 its an outrage, john n edward are entertaining but that is it, they dont have the x factor they cant sing, and everyon nos it, why else would they only be given 1 line in the x factor single!!!!!

Are`nt we all forgetting something, this is a "talent show". So please can someone tell me how on earth John and Edward have got this far?. Although they can reliably called upon to... dance out of sync, rap out of tune and if they dont spend most of the song looking at (or for) one another they would probably fall over their own feet, like they did on saturday on entrance to the stage. But having said that I am sure they will work and earn in their chosen carreer, but talented ????????

this show is called XFACTOR, not singing factor or vocal ability factor. XFACTOR just means someone with potential and star quality. spice girls had it even though they couldnt sing well. SO JOHN AND EDWARD QUALIFY

Yes it's a singing contest but ultimately, the contestants are being judged for having the X factor. Whilst others in the competition can obviously sing better than the twins, unfortunately they are rather bland and inpersonable and as such, do not have the X factor.

Brian should watch Queen week too, which was obviously chosen to cater for Simon's acts but I can't be bothered bitterly banging on like everyone else. You're both great and I can't wait to see you both on Saturday and I hope people vote because you and Lucie didn't deserve to be in the bottom two last week xxxxxxx

Yeah.. Stop hating them. Sure they can't really sing.. But they're gunna get a good tv career out of X factor even if we won't see their albums on the shelf.. we will be seeing them on TV. Good for them, :).. & They love backstreet boys. I am starting to like Jedward more each week. I don't think they should win. But they are entertaining.
