My Chemical Romance's sold-out Wembley Stadium performances are already attracting an unexpected celebrity following. The rock icons are midway through their trio of shows at the legendary London venue this week, having kicked things off on Wednesday (July 8).
Unexpected celebrity sighting at Wembley
Concertgoers at the band's earlier show this week were left gobsmacked upon spotting two enormously popular famous faces in the crowd — not exactly the names you'd associate with a My Chemical Romance fanbase. In a TikTok clip posted by a fan named Josie, a group of revellers could be seen throwing shapes in the crowd during the performance. Among them were none other than Irish pop duo Jedward.
Twin brothers John and Edward Grimes shot to stardom as Jedward on The X Factor back in 2009, and have remained beloved personalities across both Ireland and the UK ever since. The pair are equally prolific on social media — and it turns out they're devoted My Chemical Romance enthusiasts to boot.
Fan reactions and social media buzz
They even chimed in on Josie's video, commenting: "Jepic vibes." Fellow commenters beneath the clip were utterly bewildered to spot Jedward at the concert, with many declaring the emo gig would be the absolute last venue they'd anticipate seeing the pop pair. Others who attended the show themselves confessed they had absolutely no clue Jedward were present, jokingly admitting they were "jealous" of those fortunate enough to dance alongside the twins.
One viewer exclaimed: "I'm actually crying, I had no knowledge of this at the front." Another posted: "Stop, this is so funny." A third revealed: "We got a picture with them!"
Jedward's Wembley appearances
Jedward have been lapping up the variety of music performances at Wembley lately, as My Chemical Romance isn't the first gig they've turned up to. Several commenters highlighted that during Harry Styles' 12-night residency at the identical venue in late June, Jedward were similarly spotted amongst the audience. Someone observed: "Jedward popped up randomly at a Harry Styles concert last week as well. I think they're just on their side quests." Another quipped: "They're just respawning at every Wembley show and I'm obsessed." However, one fan summed it up perfectly when they declared: "This is a Jedward world and we are living in it."
