Tia and Tamera dish on high school bullies, pregnancyAny proper child of the ‘90s will remember Tia Mowry-Hardrict and Tamera Mowry-Housley of “Sister, Sister” fame. The former child stars gained popularity as actors on the series, which was about long-lost twins who meet as teenagers, but "Sister, Sister" didn't have the same effect at their school.
“Our experience as actors in high school wasn't really the best experience," Tamera told CNN. "I think a lot of the time kids automatically assumed that maybe you think that you're better than they are because you're on TV. And we had big curly hair and buck teeth at the time so they called us the ‘Buckwheat Twins.’” Tia added that she'll never forget the time another student "screamed down the hall and he said 'Your show sucks!'" "Just like that, out loud, in front of all the kids," she recalled. “And I said you know what, I'm sick and tired of this; I'm finally going to say something. And then I turned around and I said, 'Well, the checks don't,'” she laughed. The twins have done a lot of growing up since their high school days. They’ve both gotten married, and they’re building families. They have also been involved in several projects since “Sister, Sister,” including Tia’s recent role on BET’s “The Game," and their reality show on the Style Network called “Tia & Tamera,” which is currently in its second season. Tia has a young son named Cree, and Tamera is expecting her first child, so the twosome also had plenty to say about pregnancy. “I took three pregnancy tests just to make sure,” Tamera said. “I took a picture of it on my phone and I texted the picture to [my husband] Adam, and I said ‘Happy early Father’s Day.’ The thing is, after 30 minutes I never got a phone call!” She said she had to call him and prompt him to look at his phone, but when he did finally get the message, he was very excited. Tia and Tamera also took the time to answer some of your iReport questions. Watch the video above to see them discuss why they would win a cage match with the Olsen twins, and you'll also hear them bust out in a stellar duet.

I agree these ladies are strong and i feel very business minded also. they wll be successful
trolls are "stuck people", whether it be in their lives or something they feel has caused them to be " stuck". they emotionallly give up...they are conditioned to hurt but yet at the same time have no guts.
some help themselves, some need help, some do nothing but blame others or use the famous lame excuse of that is who i am. you could try to reach out to a troll and say i'm here..he or she will still troll you.
trolls hurt people however one has to feel sorry for a troll..many get out of it with the right person or people, or medical attention. there are still many who do not help themselves which is the sad part of a trolls life.

i see so by feeding the none troll that keeps him or her there..
In my world we simply call it playing...duh
keep feeding the trolls they keep comming back. starve them and they go away.
Trolls will always be lurking in the shadows until you say something worth trolling.
your troll analysis will be with me forever! here we go again:
a troll is insecure so therefore it has to troll to feel secure. if a certain troll i am aware of could talk in person instead of having cnn slugfests.. that would be a secure move for the troll thereby the 1/4 of a troll could understand.
Everyone stop what you're doing and listen to what these C-list celebrities have to say! It might be important!
Its not called bullying no more its called trolling. lol
troll + a royal pain in the ass = loov mystery solved! LOL

Dang CNN, will you let me post anything? It's not that serious.
They are so cute. I love their chemistry. This was a good interview, they seem very down-to-earth and real.
Only watched their show a couple times though.
refreshing to see two well adjusted and beautiful young women doing the family thing well. Best to them!
These two are a joke.
