They’ve managed to stay in the competition at the expense of better singers.
And Dublin twins John and Edward Grimes could see themselves sailing through to the next round again at the weekend as the X Factor contestants perform Wham! hits!.
Simon Cowell picked the hits of 1980s duo George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley as the theme of the show.

Wham released a string of cheesy hits that would be perfect for Jedward to perform.
Handily for the 18-year-old Grimes twins – kept on the reality show at the expense of better performers – Wham Rap! features rapping, which the twins’ prefer to singing.
Wham!

Contestants will also be able to pick from George Michael solo hits like Praying For Time and I Can’t Make You Love Me.
Simon delayed choosing the theme and was also considering Elton John. Mariah Carey and Susan Boyle will sing on Sunday’s results show with George Michael tipped for a surprise appearance on Saturday.
A source said: “The theme has only just been decided which means less rehearsal time. Handily for the twins it wasn’t Elton John week or they may have struggled.”


This years finalists will receive around £100,000 for the live performances,
as the Xfactor live shows will no doubt be a sell out.
According to The Sun, next year’s dates are the most lucrative in the history of the show, with 29 gigs already booked and further concerts possible in the light of successful ratings.
An unnamed finalist from last year said: “The tour is the most lucrative part of being on the show. Even if you don’t win, it can set you up for life.”
