X Factor choreographer, Brian Friedman has admitted that he does have a special place in his heart for John and Edward Grimes.

Despite thousands of viewers calling for them to be axed, Brian told The Mirror:

“The boys are totally insane to watch in rehearsals – but they have a huge fan base. Out of everyone, they are the contestants that everyone is talking about. They are so bad that they are good.

“I enjoy working with them on their set – it’s so theatrical and over the top.”

On other singers to watch this year Brian added:

“Danyl is amazing to watch and very professional,” he said.

“But there are some real dark horses this year. Miss Frank nailed Whitney’s All The Man this week. They are ladies with huge voices and will do well.

“My other favourites are Rachel Adedeji and Lucie Jones. I think they both have incredible talent and considering they are so young they really seem to pick things up well.”
