Jedward To Enter Eurovision Song Contest

January 14, 2011
Jedward To Enter Eurovision Song ContestJedward will enter the running to represent Ireland at this year's Eurovision Song Contest, their manager Louis Walsh has confirmed.

The former X Factor twins - real names John and Edward Grimes - are expected to compete against four other Irish hopefuls.

Walsh told the Belfast Telegraph that he would not be involved in the bid.

It is not known what song Jedward will sing, although the winner will be chosen on a special Eurosong Late Late Show on February 11.

Jedward have been installed as the 8/11 favourites to represent Ireland in the 56th staging of the contest, which will take place in Dusseldorf, Germany in May.
