#InternationalJedwardDay 2018

Posted on November 26, 2018 by jedworldnews

It’s that time of year again – #InternationalJedwardDay, the day where we celebrate all things Jedward. Nobody knows why this date was chosen specifically, but we do know it was started back in 2013, by Australian fan Bella. Since then it’s been celebrated every year…on November 26.

This year has been rather exciting, as we’ve also got new studio versions of Jedward music. So far John and Edward have released ‘Perfect Wonderland’, and ‘Karma’, while this Friday fans will be able to stream and download ‘Golden Years’, one which we’ve only heard the merest snippets of. Fans have promoted the singles and been streaming and downloading them as part of the #InternationalJedwardDay celebrations.

Today fans have been tweeting, and posting on Instagram, about what things they’re most grateful to John and Edward for. Check out the #InternationalJedwardDay tag to see what everyone has been saying, and why not add your own thoughts!

What are you most grateful for, with regard to John and Edward?

Posted on November 16, 2018 by jedworldnews

‘Perfect Wonderland’, the latest single from Jedward is out today. The track is the first release by the Irish singer songwriters, and comes ahead of their fourth album, set to come out early next year.

The upbeat track carries with it a message of hope and positivity, a mantra of affirmation and peace, with lyrics such as

close your eyes but don’t overthink

and never forget the possibilities

and

don’t overstress, let your mind release

and teleport yourself anywhere you want to be

Both John and Edward share vocal duties, taking a line or two each, and equally singing on backing vox.

‘Perfect Wonderland’ has been a firm fan favourite since the twins first introduced it in 2014. Another song fans have been looking forward to, ‘Karma’, comes out next Friday.

‘Perfect Wonderland’ is available to stream and download from iTunes, Amazon, Google Playstore, Spotify, and Deezer.

If this means I'm now supporting (glam) rock / metal artists I'm totally here for it ♥🤘

#9YearsOfJedward – We Celebrate John And Edward

Posted on August 22, 2018 by jedworldnews

It’s hard to believe but today marks nine whole years since John and Edward Grimes, twins from Dublin, walked onto the stage at X Factor in Glasgow. Looking every bit like the superstars they are, they asked the audience if they were ready to party. Nine years along, the party is very definitely still happening.

Nine years is a long time in entertainment but John and Edward, or as they’ve come to be known, Jedward, are in it for the long haul. With fans who’ve been with them right from the start, and many who’ve joined along the way, the twins from Dublin have shown that success is about staying power as much as anything else. There’s no denying their talent – John and Edward went out on their own back in 2013, and released their first self-written and independently produced single, ‘Free Spirit’, the following year. They’ve followed this up with a further 8 singles, and are currently in the final stages of production for their fourth album.

We’ve written in previous years about their appearances in the Sharknado franchise, as well as their reality TV performances, most recently the MTV programme, ‘Single AF’, which began its broadcast last autumn in 63 countries around the world. Jedward continue to be household names, and are set to appear in ‘Celebrity Coach Trip’, later this year on E4. Recording in Los Angeles has meant that John and Edward haven’t been in Europe much, but they’ve still performed in Edinburgh for St Patrick’s Day, back in March, and fans can see them on October 1, when they will be singing as part of Cardiff Freshers Week. Further details are available here.

You can find Jedward online on their official website, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, and YouTube. Stream and download their music on SoundCloud, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, and Google Play.

Los Angeles-based photographer Michael T Rozman captured this photo of the crowd. Among them were John and Edward Grimes (aka Jedward), long term *NSYNC fans, who are currently in LA recording music.

*NSYNC were awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame yesterday, and there at the front of the crowd, cheering them on, were singer songwriter twins Jedward, long time fans of the 90s boyband.

John and Edward, who are in LA working on new music, shared photos and videos of the event, on their official Instagram account.

The twins documented the event on their Instagram story, including the presentation of the star and speeches from the group. They also chatted with Justin Timberlake’s Mom, Lynn Harless, had a wave and a smile from Justin’s wife, actress Jessica Biel, and a smile and a wink from JT himself. They also sang ‘It’s Gonna Be Me’ along with the rest of the fans.

John and Edward have made no secret of their admiration for *NSYNC, and been known to cover a song or two at gigs. They even made the music video for their own track ‘The Hope Song’ a tribute to Justin Timberlake’s music video for his hit ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’, from the film, ‘Trolls’.
