Former X Factor stars Jedward are Ireland’s biggest earning reality TV stars.
The Eurovision twins have earned a huge €3.8 million each since they shot to fame just five years ago.
But previously they insisted: “We honestly don’t care about the money but it’s totally cool to be able to say, ‘Yeah man, we like, made a million’.”
The Grimes brothers, 22, took home €1.26 million from their record deal after being booted from the X Factor.

They also made an astonishing €1 million for touring and TV appearances, plus €630,000 from two films made about their life.
They rank number 28 on the Sun’s Reality TV’s Richest list – beating stars from I’m A Celeb, TOWIE and Big Brother.
The €250,000 from appearing on Celebrity Big Brother and their €120,000 for their annual panto also shot them up the list.
It made them 13 places higher than former Big Brother winner Brian Dowling who – in number 35 – was the only other Irish reality star on the list.
