The Merrell Twins Share Their First Crush, YouTube Video & More | Teen Vogue

one of the first times I've ever seen myself on an airplane screen was because of Jane the Virgin yeah that was weird they had the full of first season I went to episode six and I was like ah maybe they'll see me and realize I didn't happen it didn't happen hey guys I'm Veronica I'm Vanessa we're the Merrill twins and these are our firsts my first crush was in kindergarten his name was Brandon he was such a cutie she ended up liking him too yeah he was also my first crush he was also her first kiss and my first kiss I don't really count that do we I think that is the only time me and you have ever crushed on the same guy that is the only time because I moved on immediately because I was like I don't want him and I was like I want sex I don't think he wanted me I don't even know who Seth is my first celebrity crush is probably Hayden Christensen because of Star Wars the first celebrity crush would have to be Ryan Sheckler oh I think that's up there too yeah I definitely had a poster of him in my room I did too first text I sent today was to Oh Aaron my friend Aaron I said good morning my first text was oMG that's so cute no way because I ruined my friend hottia sent me a video of her friend daughter watching her videos I didn't wake up to any text I had to create the morning text I need to wake up that was my first thought guess my alarm clock I had slept 30 minutes over at the time I was supposed to wake up my first thought this morning was kind of the same thing like it's it's not a surprise we're twins but I did think like oh my gosh like how much longer can I sleep instead of like oh my gosh I have to get up now like I was like can I sleep a little longer I can do my makeup more quickly today but my second thought after that if you no like outside of like sleeping and stuff it was who's liked my picture on Instagram oh if you would have asked me that question yesterday it would have been how many views to per tick tock get mine did not get as many as hers our first best friend would probably be each other each other you were going to say someone else I was going to say Emily and Jordan we in kindergarten in like preschool we had these two other best friends and they were twins as well but they are fraternal I still follow them on Instagram we really talk know what they're doing yeah the first time we went on a plane the first time I can remember is when we went to Europe with our family they were giving out food because it was like lunchtime and they put a salad in front of me and five-year-old me was like what is this I do not eat salads I eat chicken nuggets yeah one of the first celebrities I'm out here in LA was like Kylie Jenner and like ariana grande at the same house party yep I'm Veronica and she was so small ariana grande she was so small and I was like hi nice nice to meet you back I'm Ariana and okay that's when she was dating J Brooks not Janoskians that's a major throwback in her song talking about all her exes she didn't even mention them the first person you text when something exciting happens if I'm like away from my family it'll be you guys but if I'm with my family then it's my friend yeah either you or I just picture myself or is who you're talking to at the moment oh yeah if it's like a guy I'm talking to at the moment so that's not a thing right now our first concert we ever went to ready 1 2 3 high school musical and when they went on tour and Zac Efron couldn't go because he was filming 17 again and we were so upset about it but we were still very excited we sang all the songs they did all the dances and stuff it was gray was the best concert ever the first movie I remember singing I can just go to Aristocats Oh or maybe like we watched like a VeggieTales movie oh VeggieTales VeggieTales and Aristocats that's like what is my Lion King snow I feel like Aristocats was one of the first ones it's one of the first ones we fell in love with because Lion King was kind of scary if you think about it it really was it's a scary movie also Tarzan is too Tarzan's very scared very frightening first instrument I've ever played was piano yes a we started playing piano when we were 5 years old it wasn't something our parents forced us to do we asked to play then we were told we had to practice and then that's when we wanted to quit but we continued continue so we were like 20 errants forced us to keep going yeah and then eventually we started playing other instruments to play violin played violin and guitar our first was piano if you can play piano you can play almost every other instrument first time I remember learning how to play was twinkle twinkle little star not too epic that's how we would play it first expensive purchase was a Saint Laurent hoodie and it didn't even say Saint Laurent on it it just said love me forever and then on the back says or never I'm like yeah I bought my first designer hoodie is I'm like dang what's the purpose of not having it's a seat in the rut no one knows it's Saint Laurent no I still have it if we're talking about like designer designer like high-end it was those Prada boots that we did for bougie we did a video where we pretended we were like being extravagant I like spending money boobs for bougie and we bought a pair of prada boots it was crazy our first pet it was a cat his name was Scott he was a Siamese Himalayan cat very beautiful and elegant and fur laughing and just the kindest cat and then we got our second cat quirky like a few years later and sky was so patient with Courtney Courtney would lick him and quick I would sit there like this really when will this be done the first thing I do every morning besides being on the phone or after being on the phone I get my phone that's the first thing I do mainly what I've been doing is I wake up and I check Twitter it right away because that's my like news source and I just I want to see what's going on in the world so that I'm like did you hear about this after that I guess technically the first thing I do out of bed is use the bathroom gotta go that's a whoo our first trip to LA we were very very young we can't even remember it but the first time we can remember it we were like well it was more like meetings you're trying to like get a manager her trying to find an agent and that kind of stuff and then we realized that in order to get a manager an agent you have to live in LA so we were like oh because we lived in Missouri at the time so you're like uh I'm in one of the second times or third times we went to LA we saw Kim Kardashian Oh what it was before like she was absolutely like huge the paparazzi was following this woman we were like it was like just as the Kardashians were like starting out and stuff we're like we don't care but now I'm like aah our first trip to New York City I think we were like 17 we only had one night to be there so I was like I need pizza now that's the only thing I want is New York Pizza before we leave I don't care about anything else we don't even need to go to Times Square I just want pizza so we ended up walking with this group to go find pizza and we're just walking and walking and then all of a sudden I'm like hey there's like lights over there let's go that way I bet there's New York Pizza that way where all those lights are we turn the corner and there's like Times Square all these lights and we were just like I was so shocked when you expect pizza but it's Times Square instead you're just like oh my gosh yeah the people we were with they had been to Times Square before so they were like come on let's go no we accidentally walked in Times Square in our first youtube video what it's like to be a twin actually the town show know which we don't talk about
