Former X Factor contestants Same Difference have revealed that they enjoy watching John and Edward Grimes on the show.

Sean Smith told Live From Studio Five: “I think they’re a good laugh every time. I just think they’re all much of a muchness, the other guys, and then all of a sudden they come on and it just seems to light up the screen and puts a smile on your face. What more do you want on a Saturday night?”

Sarah talked about how it feels to have the judges on your case week after week: “Every week we were struggling to get through. We always felt we were not the public’s favourites – we were always being told by Louis [Walsh], ‘You’re awful’.

“It was really, really difficult. The first few weeks, Louis would absolutely slate us. I’d come off and I’d feel like crying. As the weeks went on, it became a joke in the end. We just thought, ‘He’s never going to like us’.”

X Factor stars Same Difference are reportedly in talks to front a children’s TV show.

The sister/brother band were dropped by Simon Cowell’s record company earlier this year but have other projects underway.

“It’s an obvious route for us and we have a huge fan base for the under 10s,” Sarah Smith told The Daily Star.

Same Difference have admitted that they believe being dropped from their record label may have been a blessing in disguise, thought they think Cowell’s company gave up on them too quickly.

The sibling duo were signed by Cowell’s record label soon after X Factor ended last year, but axed in April after their debut album failed to set the charts on fire.

Speaking about the decision in an interview with The News, Sean Smith admitted: “We still think there were four or five more great songs on the album that could have been singles and helped to sell a lot more copies of the album, but that’s the music industry.”

However Sarah thinks the axing will prove to be a blessing in disguise – as they felt restricted by Cowell’s demands.

She commented: “It’s not a bad thing actually. Now we can take our album to Asia or Australia where pop music is particularly thriving. We can do what we want because our management doesn’t have to run everything past SyCo.”

Same Difference, the cheesiest siblings in town have released their debut single and album titled Pop. Am I the only one who thinks it may be their last?

Same Difference made it to the final three X Factor acts in 2007 and returned to the show on Saturday night to perform their new single We R One.

Rhydian Roberts also returned, and in my opinion blew Same Difference out of the water! He sang live, perfectly and powerfully. Same Difference mimed, pulled really silly faces and lets not mention Sarah’s weird hairdo.

You can watch the clip from their performance below and if you still want to buy the album just follow this link!

Same Difference, the cheesy pop duo, who almost won last years X factor are finally releasing their first single, which you can watch above.

I think its a really catchy tune and certainly better than Leon Jackson’s effort last month. It’s everything you would expect from these perpetually happy siblings and they really don’t disappoint.

Fans of the pair can buy the single (it’s only £2 quid!) by clicking on the link below!

X Factor runners up, Same Difference, have been offered a £1 million record deal by Simon Cowell’s record company, Syco, according to The Sun.

The brother and sister duo had originally been offered a one single deal, which had been delayed, but reports now suggest that they will now release a full album which will include songs that have been written by previous X Factor winner, Leona Lewis.

Same Difference’s Sarah said: “We were on the train to London when we got the call.

“I think we probably deafened all the passengers because we were screaming so much.

“We still can’t believe it – we are so happy.

“When the single launch was put back we feared the worse. But now we are totally and utterly ecstatic and we can’t wait to get into the studio.”

The album tracks won’t just be written by Leona, as the writers behind the smash hits from High School Musical will also be composing new material for them.

Being an X Factor runner up isn’t all its cracked up to be. You go from having every minute of every day planned out for you before the shows final, then the day after the show ends the staff are nowhere to be seen, and no one wants to know you.

A journalist from Same Difference’s local newspaper happened to be with the duo on the morning after the grand finale, and told us that Sarah and Sean looked completely lost. They didn’t know if they should stay in the hotel or get ready to go home, and the X Factor crew that had been constantly with them for months had all suddenly disappeared.

Sean Smith, the brother of the band told The Daily Star:

“The day after the final was a massive anti-climax,” he said. “Leon was whisked off – but we were just left to clear our stuff and go.

“If our grandad hadn’t picked us up we’d have had to get the train home.”

I don’t know about the rest of you, but that sounds absolutely heart breaking to me. They might as well have left them a note saying:

“You’ve done your job, now p**s away off the lot of ya!”

X Factor runners up, Same Difference, have scored a record deal with show judge, Simon Cowell.

However, the deal is a bit of a test, as the brother and sister group will only be signed for one single at first and will go on to record an album if the first track sells well.

“We have to sell loads and hopefully make number one before they will sign us for an album,” Sean Smith told the Daily Mirror.

I am so excited about this weeks X Factor that I might just wee my pants….OK, too much information I know, but the X Factor final is always one of the best nights TV of the year.

We have been provided with the contestants song choices for Saturday night, and based on those alone I think that Rhydian Roberts finishing in top position is almost a certainty. O Holy Night is one of those songs that touches peoples hearts when it is sang well, it was one of Leona’s best performances last year and Rhydian is sure to follow suit.

I’m not so sure about Jason Donovan singing with Same Difference. I think that out of all the acts, Simon Cowell’s remaining group have drawn the short straw. I love Jason, but when was the last time he had a hit record? I think I was about 13 at the time, and let me tell you, that wasn’t recently. And how many songs are written for three people? Jason and Sarah could sing especially for you while Sean does a groovy dance, but I don’t think it would be a vote stealer.

You’ll notice that I haven’t mentioned Leon. There is a reason behind this. I’m afraid that if we mention him too much, we may attract more attention and therefore more votes to the worst X Factor dancer ever. Therefore I am going to keep my lips buttoned and hope that there is a breakdown in the Scottish telephone network on Saturday night.

Anyway, enough of my ramblings…….here are the songs:

Same Difference
Christmas Song – All I Want For Christmas Is You
Favourite Song – Breaking Free
Duet with Jason Donovan: Any Dream Will Do

Rhydian Roberts
Christmas Song – O Holy Night
Favourite Song -Somewhere
Duet with Katherine Jenkins: You Raise Me Up

Leon Jackson
Christmas Song – White Christmas
Favourite Song – You Don’t Know Me
Duet with Kylie Minogue: Better The Devil You Know

Aw, how sweet! The former Neighbours love birds will be reuntied once more as they both give performances on this weeks X Factor final.

As previously reported, Kylie Minogue is to duet with Leon Jackson, Katherine Jenkins will sing with Rhydian Roberts and Jason Donovan will sing with Same Difference.

As long as the trio don’t attempt Ten Good Reasons, it should all be good!
