New Hampshire Twins Invited to ‘LIVE with Kelly & Mark’ Twin Show

I have always been so fascinated with twins, and secretly wished I had one. How cool would it be to have a built-in best friend? Or someone that you can send to social obligations that you don't feel like attending, and they can pretend to be you! OR you can switch places in an attempt to get your divorced parents back together. Wait, that last one is just the plot of The Parent Trap. My bad.

Allyson Gelinas and her sister Lindsay are identical twins from New Hampshire, and these sassy sisters are no strangers to being on TV. Back in 2003, they were on a reality show called Meet My Folks, which was hugely popular in its day. The Bella twins of the WWE were on it as well.

Fast forward to present day. LIVE with Kelly & Mark was advertising for a twin-themed show! The goal was to host a show and have the entire studio audience be adult twins.

Allyson and Lindsay got a text from their old talent agents in NYC (the ones who got them on Meet My Folks). Their talent agents are friends with the producers of LIVE with Kelly & Mark and invited them to the filming of Twins Day. They went, and had the most amazing time!

Allyson was kind enough to send me some great photos from the day:

How cool is that? They got to meet all of these other twins from all over the country and reunite with their long lost pals, the Bella Twins! Having an identical twin seems like a very unique experience. It must have been so nice to bond with other people who have grown up living that same experience.

Allyson said with all the twins walking out of the studio, the people of NYC were so confused to see SO MANY TWINS! They were thinking, "Am I seeing double?!"

The show aired Friday May 17, at 9am on ABC! It is available for streaming via fuboTV or Sling TV.
