Jedward Documentary on RTE Radio 1 ... Jebus :(

Fukuyama

Jesus....

I'm listening to a radio documentary on RTE Radio 1 about Jedward... I think I'm gonna be sick.

You should hear some of the D4 15 yo girls
"Oh they've made Ireland proud". They have in my ****!

Yet another reason to emigrate from this country if THIS is what we have to offer the international scene...

Tune in if you fancy hearing about how some people buy into this crap... :eek:

TBH i dont blame Jedward, they are a product of what modern Ireland has made them...

But on the other hand i do blame that massive Twat Walsh.

Yeah, the fact they're Irish is a very solid reason to leave the country. Especially since no other country has produced talentless celebrities before....

Anyway, they'll probably be completely forgotten about next year, so they may aswell enjoy their success now.

Fukuyama

This keeps getting worse and worse....

Grafton Barbers said they're getting loads of ****wits coming in asking for " a Jedward"...

For one I agree with Simon Cowell when he told them to "stop talking like Americans. Your Irish, talk like you;re from Ireland". Hit the nail right on the head there... for Jedward and everyone who says 'loike'

Fair point. But other countries are bigger than Ireland. On an annual basis, we have the international spotlight on us two or three times per year. And it;s a crying shame when these two make international headlines in Ireland's name.

Wouldn't it have been much better to have a talented person instead of them. Or a sporting success? Or some form of good will such as peacekeeping?

Nope...we gots Jedward. just what a recession plagued country needed... :rolleyes:

Their success is only proportional to the amount of Irish people who follow shows like X-factor. If no one here watched it then that pair of talentless human troll-dolls would be doing their junior cert or working in tesco now. Same as if the only people in the UK who watched X-factor were Geordies then the whatever the North East equivilant of that pair of pinheads would be splashed all over the tabloids now.

Well unfortunately we have loads of human troll-dolls to follow these ones who picked up a pair of microphones....

I hope I'm never abroad when Jedward are mentioned in conversation. "Oh, you;re from Ireland right? So are Jedward"

Aren't most people their age annoying?

They might grow out of it though I doubt
they will stay famous long enough to see it

Alessandra

Fairplay to them I say. They had guts going on TV and it could have gone horribly wrong for them but instead they seem to be making a few euro out of it. No harm in that.

myflipflops

In fairness to the 2 guys themselves, they've managed to turn zero musical or dancing talent into a scenario where they are making some proper money and (presumably) getting layed a lot.

Can't blame two young lads for taking advantage of that. I think the whole thing is basically retarded but would have done it when i was 18 if i could have!

They bottled it? Ah it must be hard for them still being young, easy to see how the nerves might get to them...the poor lads.

How can anyone like them


Thank god I don't have a tv and didn't know who they were for ages (until I went over to someones house and it was on, avoided their house whenever it was on after that)

The Irish are not a nation of begrudgers. Who begrudged Phil Lynott or Rory Gallagher? Who begrudges Seamus Heaney, or Saoirse Ronan, or Colum McCann? Mo-one - because they're actually talented and deserve success, fame and recognition. A lot of people confuse hating idiots with "begrudgery" (which is "being envious or covetous" - I don't envy or covet what Jedward have or are (except for their money, which doesn't really count).

It wasn't a documentary just about Jedward, it was about reality television and the music industry. It was quite well done. I thought Eoghan Quiggs contribution was quite important. It seems he has turned his sights away from music, and now wants to be a movie star like Tom Cruise. He had considered the West End, but is now thinking Broadway... and he has acted in two school plays.

The show showed the fickle ambition of these people imo, and how if you see reality tv as an easy path to success you won't get very far. It focused on the failures in the reality music industry, it was a pretty good programme tbh.

And anyway, jedward are fun. They're positive kids who want to be popstars but can't sing and are championed by the younger public for their relentlessness. I think that's a good thing.

stovelid

I'm usually not one to hate those kind of acts too much. Westlife and Boyzone like: I hate the music but they just seem like amiably dim types who just chanced their arm for a payday and seem like mostly nice lads except for for Keating.

But I saw those Jedward lads on Graham Norton and wtf? Even GN was mortified into near-silence. I was nearly convinced that night that their shtick and that clean-living-jail bait-weird android worship of Svengali thing is some kind of elaborate pop stunt (a-la -KLF) to parody the neo-boyband genre.

I think so too, but he's usually not short of claptrap was my point.

I didn't say we were a nation of begrudgers, we have our fair share of them though.

I hate their music as much as the next guy, but I wish them the best of luck as they are two harmless dubs.

I just find them funny, I don't take them too seriously.

They are like a comedy act.

If I was a producer I'd snap them up for kids TV presenters.

Proof that there's no getting away from "reality TV" tripe unless you bury your head in the sand and totally ignore the media. I thought Radio 1 would be the last place you'd hear this sort of thing. Well maybe BBC Radios 3 or 4 might be.

Oh, i agree. I can see why kids would find them entertaining. I said from the very start that they should be doing panto or something. But they really shouldnt be making music, because in all honesty, they cant sing!!
