Good news - Jedward might be staring at you every morning!

I know ye all would be just delighted to hear the following good news. :pac:

EUROVISION TWINS JEDWARD are to become the new faces of Coco Pops, it has emerged.

Kelloggs are said to have signed the Lucan natives – who shot to fame on the 2009 X Factor series, and who will represent Ireland at the Eurovision Song Contest next month – as part of a campaign that will see Coco the Monkey phased out.
The pair – who will reportedly be paid £180,000 (€204,000) for the campaign – are set to film a TV advert for the cereal in Los Angeles in the weeks after their Eurovision duties are taken care of.
“When you walk into the shop all you will see is our faces and kids will be begging their parents to buy us. That’s going to be cool,” John Grimes – who is older by ten minutes – told the News of the World.
Coco the Monkey has been slowly phased out of advertisements for the cereal in the past few years – having not appeared in a speaking role in any advertisements since 2009 – though his face is still included on the front of the cereal’s box.
The monkey has been the cereal’s mascot since 1963, and has appeared in advertisements in countries where the cereal is known by the ‘Coco Pops’ name. In other countries the food is known as Choco Krispis, while in France it is known as Choco Pops.
The cereal was rebranded to ‘Choco Krispies’ in the UK and Ireland in 1998, but the ‘original’ name was restored a year later following public demand.
It is unclear whether the Jedward advertising campaign will still retain the well known “I’d rather have a bowl of Coco Pops” jingle.

Fair play to them.
Fair play to them.
Might as well make money and forget the begrudgers.

Why won't parents cop on! You're giving your already hyper-active children chocolate for breakfast.

"Yeah, fuel 'em up. Send 'em to school. Let the teacher sort that sh*t out.....".

Eejits.

Whilst people hate them, I respect them for the simple fact that they are making huge amounts of money by being silly. I would gladly do what they are doing for the money they are getting!

O' don't get myself wrong - I have to admire them and laugh too.
For the little talent they have, they have turned it into a business that has made them millionaires.

We all should be so lucky! :pac:

Yeah good luck to them but I always get the feeling they are not earning as much as they should be, people are prob taking more than their fair share from them!

I love coco pops but I'll never buy a packet again if these muppets are allowed on the box.

Coco-pops is what you buy if you want fat kids living in your house, so I don't know many people who will be staring at this pair whilst shovelling sugary crap into their mouths. But, fair play to them for grabbing the cash while they're still in the limelight.
