Irish twins John and Patrick from Tipperary may feature in the housemate line-up for this year's 'Big Brother'.

According to Digital Spy, the 19-year-old brothers are hoping to be selected as the first pair of male twins to enter the house.

Patrick said: "Yes we are twins, we are from Ireland, but we don't like being compared to Jedward. We have our own styles."

"We actually auditioned for the show last year, but we had exams and stuff. So no, we are not fame hungry and trying to be like Jedward."

"It really annoys us because the press keep comparing us to them and won't treat us as individuals."

"We could be separated with only one of us going into the house, but if we go in together, we would give Jedward a run for their money!"

John said: "A lot of people think we have these striking features and that we could be models, but I'm not into that sort of stuff."

"It's hard to explain, but I want to be myself. I want to show everyone what the Irish craic is all about."

Referring to previous twin housemates Sam and Amanda Marchant, he said: "We'd definitely like to meet Sam and Amanda when we come out of the show. Patrick can have Sam, I'll take Amanda!"
