Jedward Star 'Breaks Leg' At T4 On The Beach

July 5, 2010
Jedward Star 'Breaks Leg' At T4 On The BeachOne of the Jedward twins is believed to have broken his leg while performing at T4 On The Beach earlier today (July 4).

Edward Grimes fell awkwardly as he and his brother John sang a medley of songs for fans in Weston-Super-Mare.

In a video of the incident, Grimes can be seen falling over, before getting up and attempting to complete their performance.

Noticing his brother’s pain, John said: "You've hurt your leg. Are you all right man?", to which he replied: "I'm cool."

After their performance, which was broadcast live on Channel 4, Edward was rushed to a local hospital for an MRI scan.

A spokesperson told The Sun: "We think he's broken his leg and at the very least has badly twisted the ligament in his knee."

The pair shot to fame last year as contestants on The X Factor.

T4 On The Beach also featured performances from Dizzee Rascal and Plan B.
