Despite the female duo’s last single The Farmyard Hokey failing to chart, speaking in The Sun, Monica said: ‘‘They’ll never have a song on the radio like us. Without all the dancers around them John and Edward would not be so attractive. There is a lot of smoke and mirrors. Our fan base is much wider. Fans of all ages listen to our songs. They don’t even have a proper name.’’ Gabriela added: ‘’Please don’t compare us to the twins. They are not like us except that that they’re biological twins. We have been performers since we were four. They’re not a novelty act, we’re a novelty act. A novelty act must have something new. They don’t.’’ She also complained that ‘Jedward’ were being given an unfair advantage on the show by X Factor bosses. ‘’They can’t really sing-they’re totally out of tune. But they have the best stage set-up out of the whole show-the best outfits, dancers, lights, props. It draws all the attention from them, instead of focusing on the real talent and the real singing and dancing. It is not fair towards all the other acts.’ Vote for Stacey, the twins have had their moment. Stacey has the best voice and the best charcter. She's definitely an original. She has so much personality.''
27-year old Romanian twins Gabriela and Monica who rose to fame on Pop Stars The Rivals and had a hit with The Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum) also claimed their fan base was much bigger than the Grimes brothers and revealed that they’re backing Stacey Solomon to win the show.
