Jedward flee stage after bottle attack

John and Edward Grimes were reportedly hauled off stage after being targeted with bottles during a nightclub performance.

The X Factor finalists were halfway through a four-song show at Barnsley's Escapade nightclub when security stepped in and guided the 18-year-olds away.

The duo were expected to follow their performance with a meet-and-greet in the VIP area, according to the Daily Mail. The twins said that they were "disappointed" that the show was cut short, adding: "We didn't even get to sing 'Ghostbusters'."

Nightclub manager Bruce Drummond said that he has officially complained about the security team's handling of the situation. "It was their choice to pull them out which looks bad on us and on the boys," he said.

"The twins were brilliant and what happened is no reflection on them. They were loving the performing and chatting to the fans. I don't think their management team gave them a fair crack at it. They were calling the shots in quite a military fashion."

It emerged earlier this week that the twins' former mentor Louis Walsh has signed a deal with the Irish duo. Walsh will co-manage the brothers with Ashley Tabor, CEO of broadcasting company Global Group.
