With fellow group member Joel Fish he formed the pop duo Jack & Joel, which sold out a debut headline show at the O2 Academy in London before auditioning for *The X Factor*<sup>[4](https://intellifluence.com/influencer/jack-remmington-37422)</sup>. Mentored by [Simon Cowell](https://www.edgepedia.org/simon-cowell), the duo entered the live shows as the wildcard act after a public vote<sup>[4](https://intellifluence.com/influencer/jack-remmington-37422)</sup>. The pair performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and toured South Africa, and their mash-up of 2016's number-one singles drew more than 3 million views on Facebook before their [Little Mix](https://www.edgepedia.org/little-mix) medley was shared by the group itself<sup>[4](https://intellifluence.com/influencer/jack-remmington-37422)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[5](https://speakout.uk/speaker/jack-remmington/)</sup>.

In interviews about the series, Remmington described a shift in how he and Holme choose brand work: early in their careers they accepted everything, but they now decline most offers and take projects with a concept that fits their style of overt, humorous sponsorship<sup>[17](https://www.strugalajme.com/fashion/jack-remmington-and-ash-holme-on-friendship-decluttering-and-why-letting-go-feels-so-good/amp/)</sup>.
