Recently I paid a visit to my friends Shane and Sia, better known as the Barbi Twins, in their hometown of Los Angeles, California USA, to talk to them about their animal welfare work. Many of you likely know the “celebrity” of The Barbi Twins–they were the immensely popular, top-selling pinups in the 90s whose mega-watt, larger than life Sunset Boulevard billboard brought passersby, even those in automobiles, to a screeching halt. The Barbi Twins were the “it” women for top fashion designer houses such as Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier; and broke the world record for calendar and magazine sales, creating “Barbi-mania” and establishing them as the sexiest twins in the modeling business–and much sought after for the cover of Playboy, not to mention they were recently featured in Maxim magazine. While all of that is amazing, what I love most about Shane and Sia is their dedication to animals. Today you can find the Barbi Twins working toward animal rights–they have quite a few causes near and dear to their hearts; and they can also be found walking and rehabilitating dogs at animal shelters as well as participating in TNR (trap, neuter and return) with Stray Cat Alliance.
