After this week’s swine flu scare, X Factor twins John and Edward Grimes, are said to have developed flu like symptoms and bosses are worried about their performance tonight.

A source told The Sun: “The Grimes boys gave a great performance during rehearsals but off stage they were looking dreadful.”

Is it too much to hope for that the pair will lose their voices and we won’t be subjected to their awful caterwauling tonight?
