X Factor stars John and Edward Grimes have reportedly been lined up to enter the Big Brother house this Friday.

The twins, who recently admitted their plans to crack America, will treat the housemates to a unique performance as part of a shopping task insiders have revealed.

A show source told The Daily Star: “Love them or hate them, Jedward are hilarious to watch and they’re bound to boost the ratings.

“As it’s the last series, producers are doing everything they can to make the Friday night shows unmissable – and with the twins performing, this week’s eviction will be just that.”

The ‘All The Small Things’ singers added:

“We’re extremely honoured to be the first people in the show’s history to go into the Big Brother house to do a performance.

“We’re so excited to get in there and see the housemates face to face.”
