Since Will Best and AJ Odudu were announced as the newest presenter of Big Brother, the pair have been inundated with congratulatory messages – however, Jedward's musical message to Will stood out from the rest.<\/p>\n

The 38-year-old broadcaster has revealed that Jedward – twins John and Edward Grimes – got in touch with him after his Big Brother news went public. <\/p>\n

"I got a lovely congratulatory message from Jedward [John and Edward Grimes], obviously legends of the Celebrity Big Brother <\/i> house, with a duet," Will said. <\/p>\n

"They offered me huge Jepic energy and it\u2019s been sustaining me for the last few months."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Irish musical duo Jedward rose to fame in 2009 after competing on The X Factor and went on to release four studio albums and represent Ireland in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest. <\/p>\n

The pair signed up for Celebrity Big Brother that same year, coming in third place behind Kerry Katona and Paddy Doherty. <\/p>\n

They returned to the show once again in 2017 for an all-stars series, coming in second place behind Coleen Nolan. <\/p>\n

ITV's Big Brother isn't the first time Will has been associated with the brand, with the TV presenter becoming a regular panellist on Big Brother's Bit on the Side back in 2013.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He has also hosted E4's Love Shaft, ITV's Dance Dance Dance and BBC Three documentary Is This Rape? Sex on Trial. <\/p>\n

Speaking about hosting the new series of Big Brother with AJ Odudu, Will said that he's beyond excited to kick off the show. <\/p>\n

"If you asked me 15 years ago what is the one show you would like to present the most, it would be Big Brother. I was obsessed with it," he said. <\/p>\n

"And you don\u2019t always get to work with a really good mate on something this high profile. Being able to go out there and do a show like this alongside AJ \u2013 who I think is the funniest, loveliest person in the world \u2013 I know it\u2019s going to be fun."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He added that the reboot is going to "reflect issues that are important now".<\/p>\n

"The housemates themselves are going to reflect the sensibilities of people in the UK now," he added. "It\u2019ll be a group of people who would never normally meet."<\/p>\n

ITV2 is set to introduce the show's cast of carefully selected housemates in its first episode, unveiling the new and improved Big Brother house. <\/p>\n

Big Brother airs on Sunday 8th October at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
