Jedward - Would you like to see them win Eurovision??

Lord Trollington

I for one wold like to see them win.

There as mad as a bag of wet hens, but to be fair they are the best of the bunch that was on the Late Late Show the night they were being picked.

And knowing their Luck, they will probably win it.

Best of Luck to them I say.

tk123

I hope not. We could never afford to host it.

To be quite honest I couldn't be more indifferent to this thread!

If they win, fair play, if they don't, who cares!

Either outcome will not spark any emotion in me whatsoever!

No.

Not because it's Jedward.

We just can't afford to host it to be honest.

Teehee, so indifferent, you posted a comment on it. *Points finger* You Sir are a closet eurovision fan, congratulations, join the club (we have badges).

There's nothing more entertaining than getting locked whilst watching the eurovision with a group of friends, listening to the snide comments from the presenters (RIP Terry Wogan) and then of course shouting at the telly with equally snide comments like it was the World Cup.

I say YEAH to John and YEAH to Edward - go for it lads, ye can't be worse than the Turkey (or indeed Turkey for that matter).

Biggins

Yes, they are genuinely nice kids.
There is much worse out there and for all the daftness of them and lack of talent, they are making serious money, they are additionally creating revenue for staff around them and they are not breaking balls or related to crime of any kind.

Finally they are Irish. We should support our own just as much as others!

Cormic

God no. We have a bad enough reputation without these two representing us.

Guill

Thread needs a poll

phasers

I'm glad they're doing well, they seem like genuinely nice lads.

They're harmless really, I don't get all the hate!

Of course we can. When you allow yourself (incorrectly) to be on the hook for 200 billion, 5 million to host something really isn't the issue.
Also, what do you think is going to happen, RTE close because they can't afford to host the eurovision?

1. Won't happen.
2. Please let that happen.

orourkeda

No.

I want someone to eat them so they will die and we'll never be subjected to their idiocy ever again.

chalkitdown

As a cheesy pop song it'll probably do ok in the competition. Pity it's a pair of knobs performing it.

jimthemental

After I saw them on Vincent Browne I just though that I would love to kick the living shít out of them wish them well

All fixed

Personally I think they are a right pair of muppets and cant bear to watch them. The song is pretty catchy though when its on the radio - them singing live is a different story - completely out of tune.

HOWEVER, I would love to see them at least get through to the final next Sat. Seemingly Europe loves them so ya never know. I for one will be watching!

RachaelVO

I genuinely hope they do win. They are two nice young lads! If my daughter had posters of them all over he wall I don't think I'd object too much. They have a "dozy image" they have made their own. They can't be that thick, they're multi millionaires. They work hard, and give their fans the time they deserve.

The Germans, dutch, danish and french are writing about them, and seem so far to love them. They won't stop Ireland from being a political laughing stock, but they sure as hell won't make it any worse.

GO JEDWARD

Show Time

A real life Zig and Zag and the best of luck to them.

CptMackey

I hope they loose. Hate em with a passion. They are the most annoying People on the planet. How they got anywhere with no decernable talent is beyond me.

hondasam

I hope they win! good luck jedward.

I can see why people might dislike them or their music, but how can one say they hate them with a passion?

Anything there ever on is car crash TV, but its very watchable to see whats going to happen.

Seen them on Wagons Den one night, I was hoping Sheila Sheik was going to grab one of their head and let them motorboat her titties.
But it never happened.

Chris P. Bacon

I hope they win too,it's not a bad song and Ireland are the best at Eurovision we should win it every year

.......you watch Wagon's Den?

For my sins. Its on after Desperate Housewives... and the other half watches it.

I feel for you. Let me know next time and we'll go kick a ball.

Angron

Not even kind of.

ucdmike

When is it on? Cant see them winning but I think they'll do fairly well.

ArtyM

Yes.
Oh wait did you say win the eurovision, I thought you said get run over by a steamroller.
So, No.

Waste of a bullet. Jedward should be stood one in front of another, and shot in the head. Two sh|tes with the one bullet.

I hope Lordi type sh|t wins, tbh.

rossie1977

they won't even make it past the semis, awful rubbish, france will walk the eurovision this year

sallydan

Sure why not...cant do any worse than a turkey!

Liam Byrne

Absolutely not.

They might well be nice kids, but that doesn't make up for the fact that they have zero talent and have the most irritating form of the "wanna talk in Americanisms" affliction known to man, despite them not actually making any sense when talking and not having anything worthwhile to say.

What makes me laugh is that people who swore that they'd never watch the x-factor ****e if they got through to the following week (a) kept watching and (b) are now the biggest offenders of spouting "aww, give 'em a chance / support our own".

Eurovision might be a guilty pleasure, but I reckon the real reason the EU/IMF are screwing us is because of our two-fingers via Dustin and now these twits.

Ah go way, you don't really think that? Do ya? Irelands political landscape is a shamble all because we don't take the eurovision seriously? That's even a bit too much for the best conspiracy theorist!

Sir Gallagher

People are going on as if the eurovision is the mercury music awards or something, more or less every act in it is going to be crap and tacky. I'm fully behind Jedward( ooh er missus). I find the people who get wound up by jedward a little sad, they're an act for kids and kids love them, no harm whatsoever. Anyway I think it more a case of people feigning anger and outrage to make themselves look cool and edgy.

Did we send Bosco in the 80s ?

You'd be wrong, in one case at least.

If anything it's the people who u-turned on their promises to quit watching the x-factor tripe if the twints were kept in who look like fools.

Gillington

I wouldn't mind if they won to be honest.This country could do with a boost to its profile and although I'd like someone else to represent us,if we won it then it could go some way to raise it!

Anyways doing a sweepstakes or similar on Eurovision night is a bit of craic,I reckon everyone will wanna get Jedward!

The guy

It's not a serious singing competition with talent and good songs it's the eurovision, send them, they can't do any worse than what's there already.

Bosco was't a music act.

"people who u-turned on their promises"

Oh how could they, the monsters!
