If I had my own personal Barbara Walters-type list of the most fascinating people of 2013, the ATL twins would possibly be at the very top. Surely you've heard of them by now––they’re twins, they sleep in the same bed and are always by each others sides (unless one of them gets arrested, which is the longest they’ve ever been apart), and they share everything, including women. They lost their virginities to the same 21 year old girl when they were 13, and later were engaged to the same Penthouse Pet. Oh, and did I mention that they’re also both paralegals by day? And that they’re friends with Gucci Mane? OKAY.

Daria Radinski: You guys aren’t originally from ATL. Where did you grow up?
ATL Twins: We grew up in a shit hole called Chattanooga, Tennessee. It’s little, real Southeastern. It was like a mix of white trash and ghetto––hood shit. Luckily, we somehow ended up in Atlanta, and it's a lot better there.
How did you meet Harmony?
Harmony got our number through this guy and wanted to do an interview. We just so happened to be coming into Nashville the next weekend with this rapper named Yelawolf that we fucked with and shit. So we came to a hotel with Harmony and Rachel [Korine] and talked for like, four hours or something. The next day, we hung out the whole day.
How did he ask you to be in the movie, and what was your response?
We were going to do [a different project] with Harmony, and he ended up asking us to do Spring Breakers first. He asked us to do it before anyone was casted, except for Franco and Rachel. We were so stoked! We weren't hesitant at all. Then Harmony came back to Atlanta and interviewed Gucci Mane in our condo––
How did he end up in your condo? Did you know him before?
We had never met him before then. Harmony was interviewing a bunch of people for Gucci Mane's character Archie––Young Buck, Kimbo Slice––but he wanted Gucci Mane. The original script was written for him. He had just got out of prison, and auditioned right away. Gucci Mane is a real maniac.
What was it like working with the girls on set? After they got cast, were you psyched?
We were excited because those girls are really hot! We were happy for Harmony because we couldn't believe they were doing the movie. We talked to Selena on the phone like a month before we met. She was very short, quick, and bitchy. You could tell she was like, a bougie bitch, you know? We were like, "Why don't you follow us on Instagram and give us a shout?" And she was like, "I’m not gonna do that!"
Why not?
Our Instagram used to be really––you know. We used to post girls like bent over and us like "Ahhhhhh." We've been banned a bunch of times since then, so we have two warnings on our main account. Now we just have to post safe photos, you know?
Once you actually met Selena, was she chill?
Yeah, she was really nice. We love Selena! We used to watch Wizards of Waverly Place with the son of the attorney that we work for––and this little kid was obsessed with Selena Gomez––and we'd be like damn, that little bitch is fi
