John & Edward are said to be at the centre of an X Factor tour row after being given twice as many songs as some of their fellow acts.

According to the Belfast Telegraph, the pair will perform three or four songs on the stadium jaunt, while some contestants who made it further in the competition will only sing twice.

It is alleged that the brothers are now getting the "cold shoulder" in rehearsals as their co-stars are "frustrated" over the special treatment they are receiving.

John Grimes commented: "We have three or four songs, and the others have two. It's because of this year's show and all the stuff there was about us. We are not going to complain, it's what we are being told to do."

A tour source added: "Some of the others who got further in the competition might not be too happy, but Jedward are the stars."

The X Factor live tour will kick off at Liverpool's Echo Arena on February 15.

I'm confident Joe will have the same amount of songs, so hopefully they just mean Stacey/Danyl/Lloyd etc.

Joe was the winner of the x factor he should be the one with the most songs. NOT JOHN and EDWARD. Its outrageous. I would rather pay lots of money to go and see some great singers like joe rather than pay to go and see those pair of good for nothoings. I really hope that joe gets just as many songs. And the fact that the tour source said that the tour is all about john and edward is absolute rubbish, it is about each individual singer. They all had their own journey and all deserve to have the same ammount of song. Only joe should have more songs because he actually won the show. I know that sounds like I'm being biased towards joe but I AM RIGHT.

[Hubz]

Urg, I would prefer to see more of Danyl, Olly, Stacey etc then Jedward.

How can they say Jedward are the stars, er Hello Joe won the show.  I hope this report is wrong. x  

[susiej]

I really think J & E are highly overrated and it irks me that they are getting so much attention all the time.  Joe won the XFactor and we should be hearing more about him than ANY of the other contestants.  It makes me wonder if we should start a Facebook campaign ourselves in order to get Joe more media attention than these nonentity extraneous others!

[hannahd]

Joe will get five songs, I think and he will close the show.

It's a money making venture and the fact is Jedward were the most talked about contestants on this year's show. The thing is this time next year they'll be forgotten about, while Joe will be just starting out, so let them have their moment of fame. It won't last!

[Jenni1]

If this is true. it takes me back 8 years when Will Young won Pop Idol and Gareth performed more songs than Will on the Pop Idol tour.

Look where Will is now compared to Gareth!!!

Hope it's not true though.

[LauraS]

AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGH OMFG. This isnt even funny anymore please please please please dont let this be true i may just cry.

[joesahottie]

i only went to the tour for MAINLY Joe and as if i want to see Jeward and more Jedwar what alound of S&$£ i hate them why carnt it be more joe ? 

[AJ94]

well I am shocked by this. I thought that Joe would get more songs as he was the winner, and then the other finalists would each get the same as each other. I find it extremely unfair that Jedward are getting preferential treatment, when obviously they are not the most popular. If they were really popular then they would have got further than they did in X Factor. I feel that they are completely untalented and that there is no reason at all why they should get more songs on the X Factor tour. I can fully understand why the other finalists are annoyed. In my view this whole Jedward saga undermines what X factor is actually about and makes a complete mockery of what the show is meant to be - a talent contest. Jedward have no talent so they should not even have got past the auditions in my view. However, hopefully all this Jedward nonsense will backfire, and people will get annoyed at having Jedward forced in their faces all the time. I think giving them more songs on the tour has pushed it a bit too far.

[PrincessBeccaLovesJoe]

Wow. Even though I'm not going on the tour this makes me very mad. How can they say the show was all about them. It was about them until they got kicked out, because people were complaining about them so much. You know boys, that's really not a good thing, no matter how many people said it. After they went the show got back to being a talent contest and boy did it do that when Joe won. Joe should not get the same amount as Jedward. Joe should have the most songs, period. The fact that Jedward always have to have this big extravagent performance is all the more reason to give them just one song coz that must cost them a fortune, and let's be honest they aint the best at focusing or dancing it has been said many a time. I actually pray they fade away very soon. If they don't and they do their own thing away from the x factor, that's bearable. But if they always talk about this year being their x factor year and not Joe's I will definately do something about that!

[Tacom]

I really can't believe this!  I thought Simon hated the twins.

I hope this turns out just to be a rumour and they might do 3 numbers, but shorter or in a medley or something.

[PrincessBeccaLovesJoe]

I'm sure JLS didn't have a single out this time last year. There's came out in June time and they were the runners up so why do Jedward even have a single. Why are they even signed? WHY ARE THEY EVEN HERE!? lol. Some people on imdb were calling them Jizzward tehe might have to start that up again X x

[LauraS]

haha, i just LOLLED jizzward.

[AJ94]

well the only reason they have been signed is because Simon sees an oppurtunity to make money out of them, so he will exploit that oppurtunity for as long as possible, until people get sick of them, and then they will be dropped. Maybe i'm a bit cynical, but I can't think of any other reasons why anyone would want to sign them.

and lol at Jizzward.  that is funny.

[emsylovesjoe]

ive only been to xfactor tour once before. and that was the year that leona won. im pretty sure she sang more songs than the others and she had a much bigger entrance. im sure joe will be the star of the show. xx
