Jedward perform in Birmingham and admit: "We can't sleep anymore"

X FACTOR sensations Jedward hot-footed their way into Birmingham last night to perform in front of scores of adoring fans.
The in-demand twins, John and Edward, sang a set of festive hits and signed autographs at the National Exhibition Centre as they opened the Funworld attraction.
The massive indoor funfair boasts more than 50 rides, including a mini-roller coaster and old favourites like the dodgems and waltzer.
But fans of the pair, who shot to fame on the TV talent show despite being voted out half-way through, were not interested in the rides on offer.
Jess Reece and Kelsey King, both 16, came all the way from Leicester to see their idols.
Kelsey said: “I might go on something now they have finished, but I just came for them. They are gorgeous.
“They definitely should have stayed in and won X Factor.
“I don’t mind that they don’t have any talent. I think that is what makes them so fun.
“I love it when they do the American accents for no reason.
“I really wanted to meet them. That would have been a dream come true.”
And they made sure they arrived in plenty of time at the show to get the best view.
