Jedward want more than £1m for Celebrity Big Brother

Jedward think £1 million is not enough for them to appear on 'Celebrity Big Brother'.

The Irish duo - made up of 19-year-old twins John and Edward Grimes - are eyeing a huge pay-cheque if they agree to feature on the Channel 5 reality series when it re-launches later this summer.

John said: "There are always rumours that we're going in. Rumours are called rumours because they're not always true. Going on 'Big Brother' would be the craziest thing ever.

"I don't think £1 million's enough, I think it's below estimate."

Edward added: "I think 'Big Brother' is cool and when I was younger I used to be scared of the eye. I was like. 'What's going on there?' "

However, if the pair - who shot to fame on 'The X Factor' in 2009 - do enter the infamous house, they want to be joined by Queen Elizabeth, Lady Gaga and former prime minister Tony Blair.

John told Star magazine: "We'd like Britney Spears or Lady Gaga in there with us."

Edward added: "And someone really intelligent that we can have grown-up conversations with, someone like Tony Blair. Gordon Brown. Maybe the queen."
