This evening lit me on fire after I had the fortunate experience of interviewing Tiera & Tiana Madry, or otherwise known as the "T & T Twins". These two truly are dynamite! There was never a dull moment as we whipped through topic after topic and beyond being absolutely gorgeous, these ladies are the kind of people you just LOVE to be around because they're genuine, vibrant and full of life. We discussed how it all began, going back to their roots in Kentucky and starting out in local theater and modeling and where they are today, having just finished promoting their new movie, Jack & Jill with Adam Sandler on the Dr. Phil show. They have many projects in the works including a treatment that Tiana is currently writing and another treatment for a film they were recently asked to star in. Additionally, a cooking show is in their future and after Tiera told me about a homemade vegetable stew she made, I felt confident this idea was right up their alley. Tiana and Tiera are nothing like the stereotypical twins where they finish each other's sentences and you can not tell them apart. They both have very clear and different personalities and their faces are specifically their own, however, these two truly possess a light that burned so bright, I found myself like a moth to the flame wanting to do a 6 hour interview. It warmed my heart that both of them value family and each other very much. They have a kinship and respect that rang very loudly, even when Tiera would dominate the conversation and Tiana would ask her to please stop so she could speak, they found the laughter at the end of that tunnel. In closing I asked them both if they had any advice to women trying to make it in entertainment or just general advice in life and after all was said, the message was simple, Never give up beacause you never know what will happen.
Chasing our dreams and fueling our passion,
