  • Are Jedward in financial trouble?

    Reports have emerged from Jedward’s entertainment company that show hundreds of thousands of Euros in losses!

    The super-excitable duo, from the X Factor, have an entertainment company called, Planet Jedward, which is registered in Dublin and it seems to be in a financial sinkhole. The last two years of account both show losses of over €100,000.

    The company has two sole directors, Edward and John Grimes.

    According to Heat Magazine, the latest accounts for the company show a loss of €130,182 (£114,888) last year and €104,447 (£92,177) in 2014. A combined loss of over €234,000.

    However, we wouldn’t be too worried for the boys, in September 2013 their estimated net worth was €6 million and they were ranked as the fifth most financially successful X Factor act in the history of the competition.

    Things were starting to look down for the duo when Louis Walsh revealed that the flamboyant brothers were his most embarrassing career move.  Despite this, the boys have managed to rack up some incredible achievements. They’ve released three number one studio albums and 11 singles, three of which went to number one in Ireland.

    They’d better start getting back on the road before Bratavio takes their place.

  • And this is why KYLIE is one hell of a gay icon

    We love Kylie – and her rather gorgeous BF Joshua.

    The Aussie pop princess and her boyfriend, Joshua, have just done something that will totally and forever endear them to us…

    They’re not going to tie the knot  until same-sex couples get to say “I Do” down under.

    Surprisingly same-sex marriage is not yet permitted in Austrailia and they’re not happy about it.

    Kylie’s husband-to-be, Joshua Sasses, 28 helped launch the equality campaign, “Yes” and the “Say I Do Down Under” and said even though the pair would like to get married in Melbourne they won’t until the laws change to allow gay couples to get civilly partnered.

    Speaking to Australia’s Seven Network Joshua said,

    “When I found out that gay marriage was illegal in Australia, I was astounded,”

    “..we will not get married until this law has passed in Australia”.

    The Australian government has proposed a public referendum on the issue in February 2017.

    Joshua continued,

    “I simply can’t fathom on any level, whether it’s moral or religious or anything, that I have the right to get married and to marry the person that I love and that somebody else doesn’t because of their sexual orientation.”

    Despite being seen as progressive Austrailia’s laws affecting LGBTs are quite regressive. There’s no same-sex marriage and there are no adoption rights in some territories. The age of consent was only recently equalised in Queensland.

    Fans rejoiced at the rather dishy 25-year-old Andrew as he was made Star Baker in last night’s episode of Bake Off with his showstopping 24 mini mousse cakes.

    In fact, it sent thousands of people to THEGAYUK to find out a little bit more about the aerospace engineer.

    Yes, it’s true we do have a bit of a candy crush on Andrew and it turns out he’s now favourite to win the series.

    To celebrate his win, Andrew celebrated with a mini bottle of prosecco and commiserated with Tom Gilliford who was eliminated from the competition.

    We would have chosen a Blue Nun chaser to go with that prosecco.

    Where were you when you heard S Club 7’s Bring It All Back?

    Jon Lee reminded us today how old we actually are. He took to Instagram to tell us that S Club 7’s first album went into the charts 17 years ago today. Basically half his lifetime ago!

    So could a 20th reunion be on the cards for the 7? Speaking to Hannah Spearritt in Feb, she told THEGAYUK,

     

    “I think it would be lovely to do something to mark that but I had no idea it had been that long.

    “We got together around 1999. That’s crazy. So yes, it would be awesome to mark that 20th somehow.”

    Bravatio hit back at “copycat” allegations

    X Factor duo Bratavio has hit back at claims they copied another artist’s look.

    The band, formerly known as Bradley and Ottavio, now Bratavio, have hit back at Danny GoGo after fans accused the duo of copying Danny’s style.

    https://twitter.com/BRATAVIO/status/782668617401901056

     

    Danny GoGo took to twitter to slam the flamboyant pair suggesting that they got their costume inspiration from an outfit he wore.

    Many of Danny’s 78,000 twitter fans were quick to agree, saying that Danny’s look was “better” and calling the singer a “trend starter”.

    Some of his fans even went as far as to say that Bradley and Ottavio had “ripped off” an original look of Danny’s and that they were nothing more than “copycats”.

    https://twitter.com/DannyGoGo_/status/782667806378717186?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

    However, Bradley and Bratavio were quick to answer the accusation saying that the look was first conceived in 2012.

    All is not well on Twitter. Danny GoGo’s fans are raging over the style and appearance of X Factor‘s Bratavio.

    So Bratavio, formerly Bradley and Ottavio, have been accused of copying singer and trend setting Danny GoGo’s style and his fans are not happy about it.

    All was well until Bratavio were spotted wearing their now famous multicoloured candy looking costume for this weekend’s “Judges Houses” – where they successfully made it through to the live shows. They sang XTina’s “Candy Man” to impress Louis Walsh.

    So far so good right? Except the 23-year-old Danny GoGo took to twitter to slam the flamboyant pair by saying:

    Well I guess you’ve got to get your inspiration from someone else!!

    https://twitter.com/DannyGoGo_/status/782667806378717186

     

    Many of Danny’s 78,000 twitter fans were quick to agree, saying that Danny’s look was “better” and calling the singer a “trend starter”.

    Some of his fans even went as far as to say that Bradley and Ottavio had “ripped off” an original look of Danny’s and that they were nothing more than “copycats”.

    https://twitter.com/orbitalraver/status/782665751748571140

     

    Danny GoGo then another took a swipe at the X FACTOR pair, by suggesting that the casting of Honey G and Bratavio was a “laughing stock” and that they’d never get signed to a recording deal.

    The decision to put Bratavio into the live shows proved to be highly controversial. Trolls on social media were quick to condemn Louis Walsh and bombarded him with homophobic slurs.

    We’re not sure – look at Jedward.

     

  • Wait… Did X FACTOR show Simon Cowell’s penis?

    Wait… Did X FACTOR show Simon Cowell’s penis?

    People have been questioning whether they saw Simon Cowell’s penis over the weekend…

    So some people thought they caught a glimpse of a Cowell cock during this weekend’s “Judge’s Houses” episode of X FACTOR. Did they?

    Simon Cowell was joined by two Spice Girls, Mel B and Emma Bunton to select three hopefuls for the forthcoming marathon of live shows to be become Britain’s Next Top Ignored Popstar.

    During the selection process, as Cowell had his legs crossed, people started to question what exactly was going on between his legs.

    So obviously we did a little bit of investigation into what has now been dubbed as “toegate”.

    Basically, we looked a little harder at the evidence and it turns out that it’s just Cowell’s toe and the music mogul himself reckons it a large toe at that.

    Simon was forced to admit that the toe’s placement was indeed an embarrassment for him. He told Rylan Clark and Matt Edmonson on the Xtra Factor,

    “It was just my toe. It was quite embarrassing when I saw it online but it was just my toe.

    “I have a very large toe.”

    Thank goodness.

     

  • Bradley and Ottavio rebrand

    Bradley and Ottavio rebrand

    Two of Louis Walsh’s boys, Bradley and Ottavio have rebranded their band name.

    The XFACTOR band formed of Bradley Hunt and Ottavio Columbro have rebranded ahead of the live shows next week. The flamboyant pair decided that “Bradley and Ottavio” was just too much of a mouthful so they ditched the brand altogether. Instead, they’ll be known as Bratavio

    The dynamic duo has caused a stir on Twitter with fans of the show hurling abuse at Louis Walsh for taking them through to the live shows. A number of angry viewers took to calling Louis and Bratavio homophobic slurs after Louis chose the boys over four other acts including boy band favourites Yes Lad.

    Louis Walsh was aided by last year’s runner-up Fleur East and Pride in London’s headliner Alesha Dixon who jointly decided to put in the controversial novelty act.
