Jedward are locked in a backstage row on the X-Factor tour

Cool guys: Jedward and Vanilla Ice perform at the National Television Awards

Quiff-haired John and Edward Grimes are being treated like stars during the X-Factor tour and the rest of the acts are not happy about it. Jedward perform three or four songs while the others do only two.

Jedward were talking to the Belfast Telegraph before their shows in the city.

They revealed that they are getting the cold shoulder in rehearsals from their jealous X-Factor colleagues.

Sharing the bill with the teenage twins are Lucie Jones, Stacey Solomon, winner Joe McElderry, Lloyd Daniels, Jamie Archer, runner-up Olly Murs and Danyl Johnson.

According to the paper some contestants that made it further in the competition are not getting to sing as many songs as the unlikely stars.

John said: "We have three or four songs, and the others have two. It's because of this year's show and all the stuff there was about us.

“We are not going to complain, it's what we are being told to do."

The X Factor live tour kicks off at Liverpool's Echo Arena on February 15.

It takes in all the UK’s major cities including Glasgow and Aberdeen.

Meanwhile, it looks as though Jedward’s single Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby) is failing to push Owl City’s Fireflies off the top of the charts.

    thank god i never got tickets to see any of the xfactor tours . it would make me physicaly sick to have to watch those twins . i think all the other contestants should refuse to perform if those twins get to sing more than the other contestants. so they are getting to sing more because they got a lot of stick?. well u have not seen anything yet just wait untill the other fans read this . walsh and simon has a lot to face up to . so what about the x factor winner joe mcelderry ? his fans will expect more than 2 songs from him . the promotors of the tour must be thick skinned
