We know some of you don't watch The X Factor - you're bored of reality TV, you don't buy into the whole thing, you think it's crap or whatever. That's fine, but there are always one or two moments every year that become required viewing for everybody, everywhere, regardless of how much they enjoy or hate the show, just as it is important for every secondary school pupil to learn about the rise of Nazism.
Here's one of this year's moments: John & Edward performing Britney Spears' 'Oops!… I Did It Again'.

The talky bit is a brilliantly duff masterpiece of modern horror but our favourite part is probably at 1:28 when John and Edward both try to provide their own backing vocals: "oops, you OOPS YOU". The odd 'Zovirax bellboy' luggage trolley theme is worth a mention, too. And the fact that when it gets to the talky bit you actually hear the audience LAUGHING. And the key change! And the mis-timed jumping! And the total lack of chemistry or coherance in a performance by two identical twins! And *EXPLODES*
