Brian Friedman: 'Twins will be found out'

Brian Friedman has reportedly suggested that John and Edward Grimes could struggle on The X Factor if they are ever given a ballad.

The show's chief choreographer agreed with the claim that the twins had taken places on the show that could have been given to more deserving contestants.

Friedman told the Evening Standard: "Yes, but the thing is the public are voting for them.

"It's going to show in the weeks to come if they do a ballad. Then the public will decide if they should stay."

Earlier this month, Friedman described John & Edward's singing as "basically unbearable" and "like entering the gates of hell".
