We're up for anything, say Jedward

Tuneless twins John and Edward Grimes said they are "up for any challenge" now their X Factor dream has ended.

The twins - dubbed "Jedward" - were booted off the show on Sunday night and said they will consider any offers before they decide what to do next.

The 18-year-olds, from Dublin, told GMTV: "We are up for any challenge. We have got to think about it together and see if it's for us."

The twins, who said it takes them only 10 seconds to create the trademark hairstyles which add to their cartoon image, were popular with the talent show's viewers.

They used energetic performances to distract from their lacklustre singing and are expected to be a huge hit on The X Factor live tour. "The tour is coming up next year so we're really excited about that. We just want to throw ourselves into that," they said.

They described appearing on the show as "fun" and said everyone they worked with were "such pros". Edward said: "We were honoured just to be given the opportunity to have made it that far."

Asked if they would consider joining other reality shows, the pair said they would consider any offers which came their way.

The twins were asked if they would consider going to the jungle to replace Katie Price, aka model Jordan, who walked out of I'm A Celebrity Get Me... Out of Here! "Are we celebrities?" they asked.

The teenagers told presenter Lorraine Kelly they were both currently single. "At the moment we don't have girlfriends," John said. Edward added: "We didn't want to be missing anyone."

The twins said they did not mind people not being able to tell them apart and were happy to share the joint name Jedward. "It's cool because our fans came up with that name," John said.
