What is the difference between john and edward grimes

They first shot to fame on the X Factor and came sixth, despite Simon Cowell calling them annoying. The boys are only ten minutes apart in age but they are not exactly identical. John is taller than Edward by about one inch and has a scar above his left eyebrow and above his nose. They always stand in the same order to help people know the difference, with John always on the left and Edward on the right. Jedward might be worth millions and constantly in demand, but the twins spend a lot of their time doing charity work and are involved with many different campaigns.

When they went into the Celebrity Big Brother house the first time around in , they struck up an unlikely friendship with Sharknado star Tara Reid. She even got them a cameo in Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No! Apart from being a big hit among some well-known stars, the tone-deaf twins came very close to collaborating with Shakira. Should I collaborate with them? What do you girls think? I kind of feel with everyone who worked with us in the earlier days, they never thought we were going to keep going.

Fame comes like an injection. They have a place in LA, though they love living in Ireland and love being back here. A lot of newspapers made a big deal of the fact Jedward were quarantining with the actress and star of American Pie, Tara Reid.

Living partly in LA has led to other things. Last June, they tweeted videos and pictures of themselves participating in a Black Lives Matter protest with one of them astride a moving car holding a Black Lives Matter sign. It went viral.

A lot of black artists, it was their time to say what they felt. We were just allies showing our support And we were all just like everyone else in that protest. We live near Hollywood Boulevard. On the same day, everyone was posting black squares on Instagram. Did they hold back on their opinions in the past? Their supposedly newfound politics, they say, is just a natural extension of wanting people to be free to be their truest selves.

Maybe publicly we never got to air it as much. They laugh. They have slightly different roles in the Jedward operation. Edward keeps his eye on the business side, he says. John works out things on his guitar and focuses more on the musical vision. Will they still work together as Jedward in 10 or 20 years? Do they still live together? They laugh again.
