hail jedward : car ad plus eurovision = wealth

Post by sebmelmoth2003 »

a pity leonard couldn't have featured in the car ad too!

...Jedward have sold the rights to their Eurovison entry 'Lipstick' for £500,000, according to reports.

Car manufacturer Hyundai are planning to use the track in new adverts which, bizarrely, also feature Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio...

re lucie jones/jedward situation on the x-factor when twins voted out and offered song contract by sony and louis walsh.

from tom bower's biography of simon cowell - page 290, paperback edition.

...the purists' outrage filled the airwaves and the internet . pop music they said was not about singing - that's opera - but about character, sincerity and the truth.

unlike bob dylan, leonard cohen and morrissey, who could not sing but were authentic, jedward were fakes lacking personality, integrity and real human soul...
