Louis Walsh: Simon Cowell is too old to understand John and Edward Grimes

Louis Walsh has jibed that X Factor judge Simon Cowell is too old to understand Irish twins John and Edward Grimes.
Walsh told Heat magazine: “I know it’s a massive gamble, but I’m prepared to take a chance, and I’ve given that to them. They have been edited really badly in the show and they can only get better.
“It will wind Simon up that I’ve done this, which is great. And anyway, he’s over 50 now, so what would he know about them and what they can do?”


We know Louis is really feeling under the weather this week due to the loss of his friend and music colleague Stephen Gately, but Simon does know how to recognise some forms of popular talent.
