Louis Walsh has announced that he is making plans for "Jedward mania" after signing up the X Factor twins.
Last week, it was confirmed that the Irish judge would manage the Dublin-born brothers. The development came after he reached an "amicable agreement" with Modest Management, which usually represents all contestants until the series ends.
Speaking about the pair's future in an interview with The Late Late Show, Walsh claimed: "They're probably going to do a TV series, endorsements, gigging, a bit of singing, a bit of dancing. Kids love them. I can see Jedward dolls, Jedward books, Jedward everything, Jedward mania."
He added: "I'm not taking them on for the money, it's a challenge. They were great on the show. I just took a chance and they were the best of a bad lot of groups."
John & Edward were voted off The X Factor last month after losing out in a sing-off with Olly Murs.
