Unreality TV Joins in the Fight for Jedward to Win X Factor
John & Edward SAFE! Thank You Simon!
The most VFTW-tastic set of twins ever are safe once again! And we can thank none other than Simon Cowell, who personally saved them instead of singing robot Lucie Jones. And now the psychos have really lost it, like this fatty or this babbling idiot.
While this destroys the show's, Simon's (and probably the entire UK's) credibility, Euro-Worsters will have to vote even harder next week in order to keep the twins on and make Simon rue the day he saved them. VFTW Victory!
John and Edward Perform The Ghostbusters Theme on the X Factor
It's just as good as we hoped. With the twins' famous ad-libs, some shrieking, lots of ghoulish figures, and even the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. John and Edward are making VFTW proud on the UK's X Factor, and we'll find out tonight if they'll live to fight another day. The boos were even louder this week than normal, they must be loving it. After this, can American Idol 9 be anything but a let down?
Remember to Vote for John and Edward on X-Factor Tonight
Vote for the Worst is still encouraging you to vote for those terrorizing twins, John and Edward, on the British version of X Factor tonight. So if you live in England, please open your hearts to the true genius of Jedward. And if you know anyone living overseas, make sure you call them to remind them that Jedward needs their votes. They're singing the Ghostbusters theme song tonight for fuck's sake. You have to vote for them. Let's keep this thing going! (Caricature found online, we didn't draw this)
Vote for the Worst Presents: The Worst Songs of 2003
Each week, we'll be featuring the worst songs from each year this decade. We'll be counting down the absolute worst songs to come out each year from 2000 to 2009, and we'll be bringing back all of the songs you wish you'd forgotten. These are the songs that people just can't seem to believe exist, because they're just so terrible. There is a good mixture of guilty pleasures (the awfully funny) and complete crapfests (the awful with no merit). At the end of the 10 weeks, you'll have an opportunity to vote on the worst song of the decade.
2003 was a year for songs that were so bad, they're good. So many guilty pleasures came out of this year, as people apparently were trying to be terrible to sell records. It worked! Here's a recap of the songs that made 2003 a terrible year for music.
10. Amanda Perez - Angel
Some people get record deals because they sing well. Some get record deals because they're attractive. Some get record deals based on buzz. Then there's Amanda Perez, who has none of the above. How she became famous, and how this horribly written and horribly sung song became such a hit on the radio is a mystery. Showing how one note she is, Amanda released a second single called "I Pray" which sounds almost identical to "Angel". Thankfully, Amanda never repeated the success of her first song.
John and Edward Survive Another Week on X Factor
Astonishingly, after their performance of We Will Rock You, John and Edward made it yet another week. VFTW Victory! Some chick named Rachel went home. Doesn't matter who that even is, as long as our boys keep surviving. They'll now perform for their 5th week of competition next week, so remember to keep voting for them if you live in England.
X Factor - John and Edward Take On "We Will Rock You"
Week 4 of the John and Edward debacle on England's X-Factor show continues, and it just keeps getting better. This week, John and Edward sing "We Will Rock You". They make up their own hilarious words, they lose their place in the middle of the song, they dance around confused, and the singing is as precious as ever. We love these guys and want to see them win! Let's hope they make it past the next vote. John and Edward are the latest British singing sensations. Since we know they're awesome and will stay in the competition, may we recommend "My Neck, My Back" for next week?
Vote for the Worst Presents: The 10 Worst Songs of 2002
Each week, we'll be featuring the worst songs from each year this decade. We'll be counting down the absolute worst songs to come out each year from 2000 to 2009, and we'll be bringing back all of the songs you wish you'd forgotten. These are the songs that people just can't seem to believe exist, because they're just so terrible. There is a good mixture of guilty pleasures (the awfully funny) and complete crapfests (the awful with no merit). At the end of the 10 weeks, you'll have an opportunity to vote on the worst song of the decade.
2002 was a year for terrible songs with good intentions, pointless remakes, and songs about the joys of interacting with the female anatomy. So without further ado, here's a recap of the songs that made you contemplate throwing your car radio out the window in 2002.
10. Kelly Osbourne - Papa Don't Preach
The success of the TV show The Osbournes afforded the whole family some success. Sharon got an embarrassingly short lived talk show that was canceled almost immediately. Jack got a stint in rehab for his drug addictions. But the biggest shame was Kelly's recording career. Her first single was a cover of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach", which was ironic because there's no way any man was looking to impregnate Kelly. Ever. For those of you who think her next song "Shut Up" was worse, you are correct. But it didn't come out until 2003 *cue creepy foreshadowing music*
People are jumping on the John and Edward bandwagon every day, and another blog is encouraging its readers to help make the UK X Factor twins into stars. Unreality TV has joined us in encouraging everyone to vote for John and Edward every week. Thanks for the support, guys! They seem to totally understand what we're about and want the twins to win for the same reason. Let's keep spreading the word.
