Mini bio
How it started.
Veronica and Vanessa grew up in Kansas City and moved to Los Angeles at 16. They began posting sketches and singing covers to show casting directors what they could do. Their early upload, What It’s Like to Be a Twin, had quietly gathered viewers, encouraging them to keep creating.
Finding their rhythm.
Their audience grew steadily through comedy, music and challenges. In a 2022 Television Academy interview, they described Tuesday uploads as a weekly appointment with fans, with their dad helping film and edit. Acting also brought recurring roles on Jane the Virgin.
Making their own shows.
With AwesomenessTV, they appeared in and executive produced the dating series Twin My Heart. In 2020, their company True Image Productions released the self-funded, four-episode Prom Knight. They dedicated it to seniors whose proms were disrupted by the pandemic.
