Following their qualification from last night's Eurovision Song Contest Semi-Final, Ireland's entry Jedward have been savouring their success.

The Irish Times reports that after their qualification the duo said: "OMG, this is the best thing in the world!

"We want to thank all the countries who voted for us, our fans, our mentor Caroline [Downey-Desmond], the songwriters and RTÉ.

"We can't wait to perform again on Saturday. Go Team Jedward!"

At a press conference after Thursday night's show, the twins told reporters: "It's cool when you google your name and so many results pop up."

Asked how they thought they would fare on Saturday, they replied: "Everybody just tells us to be crazy, to have fun."
