Pop twins Jedward have insisted their “best friend” Tara Reid is misunderstood – and actually a lovely woman.
But Jedward lashed out at the world for attacking the star and claiming she is ruining their career, adding: “She rocks”.
They said: “Tara is misunderstood. She is the most understanding and real person ever, she says how it is! That’s why she rocks!”

And Jedward, speaking during a fan chat, also lashed out against the negativity in the world.
They said: “Everyone is a positive person by nature – it’s impacting negativity that brings people down, so fight it.”
Recently John and Edward said they have  made sure to keep in touch with their “best friend” – regularly meeting up whenever they can fit in with each other.

Tara added that she loves Jedward “like brothers” – after some fans of the lads attacked her arrival on the scene during a previous trip together.
“I love them like brothers,” she said. “Be happy for us that we are such good friends. Stop the hate.”
In the past, they have been to Saint Tropez together, and Tara has stayed with the boys in Dublin.
