David Cameron is fan of Jedward

John And Edward have won themselves a celebrity fan - in the shape of Conservative leader David Cameron.

The politician admitted he is glued to the TV on a Saturday night waiting for the X Factor twins' performance.

He told the Sun: "You only need to watch a few minutes and suddenly 40 minutes later, you're still nailed to your chair, waiting for the terrible twins to appear."

But apparently Cameron is not hooked on their wonderful singing voices, saying he instead found them "amusing".

Cameron and Gordon Brown might not see eye to eye on most political issues but they both agree the ITV ratings winner is better than the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.

The Prime Minister admitted: "I'm an X Factor fan, and Peter Mandelson looks after Strictly Come Dancing."

Strictly's dancers have faced criticism for not wearing poppies when they perform, and Cameron joined the debate, saying: "There's always room for a poppy."
