    Okay - this is going sound weird, but @myownllama on twitter has asked if anyone knows of this:

    "Could someone link me this picture "how a Jedward sees the world"? Wish I had saved it somewhere..."

    I asked for a description of the pictures, and the Llama's reply was:

    "there are 2 pics, first how normal people see it, green grass, blue sky, then how Jedward see it, with glitter and rainbows..."

    If anyone knows of this (the Llama believes "she" has seen it in this AT thread...) could you please let me know, & possibly link it to me?

    I don't like to see llamas getting distressed...they spit a bit when they do.

    I remember that picture well Lisa from about a year ago. It showed a scene of green fields and mountains but through Jedward eyes there were astronauts and ballet dancers and clowns and rainbows etc :) I didn't download the pic, alas.

    I'm waiting to see how many egg followers they get this time lol. I wonder if they'll stick with dancing in pants. We kind of expect it now.

    to be honest it's not fair - they are not the real people - why can't people wait till real and not fake accounts follow Jeds - so I think it's fair that the quality of 300k and 400k was much worse than 200k - serves the purpose.

    I've had a look at recent followers for @planetjedward and there doesn't seem to have been any egg accounts made yet.

    I think the spate of eggs before 400K happened because people were expecting the celebratory video to be uploaded as soon as the milestone was reached. The fact that it took several weeks has shown there's no real point in faking accounts to bump up the numbers.

    And I think this time people are also aware that creating fake accounts is cheating John and Edward. I'm hoping that anyone who brags about doing that on Twitter this time will be told off by other fans!

    I agree. I did wonder if J&E waited before uploading their celebratory video until they would've hit the milestone anyway, had there been no fake accounts. The thing that brought on all the eggs last time was the rumour that the twins were going to be naked and the pic of that elephant thingy.:eek::o I can't remember where the rumour started now. (Randers maybe:confused:) Anyway, no rumours are flying around this time, as far as I know, so hopefully things will be calmer this time around. If the twins win Eurosong and do Eurovision they will get a huge number of new followers anyway.

    Arrgh! The Nelly rumour! Further proof that Randers is a massive troll.

    I think they didn't make their 400K video until they returned from their German tour, and I suspect the same will happen this time (unless they filmed something during panto season).

    yeah, probably. I don't think they would've had time to make a video yet. They've been working non stop.

    They said as they had uploaded the 400k follower video that they have also already made the 500k video

    wow that's amazing! :)


    Well remember that when they reached the 400k followers they were in Germany but their laptop was lost somewhere in Sweden, and they didn't get it back until some weeks later. They also lost their phone in their way back from Germany, such a great timing :rolleyes:

    Now they're super busy but if they have already recorded it like Schehera said, they'll just need a more or less stable Internet connection to upload it. If not, we have to be patient and wait until they have a bit of free time, not only for recording it, but for editing it.
    What seems clear is that they're gonna reach that half million of followers today.

    JedGen tweeted about this and it's pretty interesting. There will be a J&E poster in the next issue of the American J-14 magazine. If the fans get to buy all the copies of this issue, J&E will be on the cover of the next issue:
    http://www.j-14.com/2012/01/j-14-challenge-get-jedward-on-the-cover-of-j14-magazine.html

    One of my American friends has already promised me a copy :D


    Okay, check JedGen and JedwardUSA tweets about this;)

    It's very exciting news on the 500K landmark being reached!

    For those of us who are interested in the science of identical twins, National Geographic has a new article about twins. It's very interesting, and sheds some light on why J&E have similarities and differences,
