Brian Friedman urges Jedward X Factor boycott
Saturday, 31st October 2009.
X Factor dance ace Brian Friedman is begging viewers to stop voting for the Grimes twins - as a win by John and Edward would ‘make a mockery’ of the show.
According to the News if the World, Choreographer Brian has admitted that while Dublin lads John and Edward are great entertainment, they could ruin the credibility of the country's biggest singing contest because they have no talent.
So bad are their raw vocals that 32 year-old Brian says listening to the boys sing is like "entering the gates of hell."
Still the teenagers have yet to be left in the bottom two by voters and are now ranked with a 14/1 shot at winning by bookies.
Meanwhile, Brian has been ordered by Simon Cowell to make sure star singer Danyl Johnson, does not face a repeat of last week where he was left in the bottom two despite being the head judge's key talent.
He said Simon's initial worries about a Grimes victory have been eclipsed by the thought that Danyl - one of Simon's favourites to ever appear on the show - could be the next to leave.
Brian said: "There is no way to figure out exactly what the public are voting for.
"But I really hope the viewers with actual music taste got the wake up call they needed with Danyl and Miss Frank being in the bottom two last week - they have to get voting for people who can sing.
"I absolutely do not think the Grimes twins deserve to win. And I'm not alone in that - but if you want to make a change you've got to get on the phone and vote."
Take heed voters!
