Milly and Becky: Legally Blondes

If you’re a fan of the Legally Blonde franchise, you’re well aware of Elle Woods and her platinum blonde success. But for the latest installment, Legally Blondes (out on DVD April 28), two new ladies are taking the lead.

Annie and Izzy Woods (aka Milly and Becky Rosso) are faced with some mean chicks when they make the long distance move from England to sunny California in the new flick. And the ladies must use their endearing charm (kinda like their cousin Elle) to get out from under a crime they were blamed for.

We caught up with the 14-year-old stars and they gave us a backstage pass to their own lives…

Legal fans
It must be cool stepping into the shoes of one of your favorite actresses. And for this film, the girls got to do just that: “[Legally Blonde] is one of my favorite movies, and Reese Witherspoon is one of my favorite actresses,” says Becky. “We own the DVD and watch it so many times. We always laugh at the same funny parts. It never gets old.”

Think Pink!
If you saw these two walking down the street, you may think they are still in costume. Just like their characters, Becky and Milly love the color pink, little dogs, and have a serious eye for fashion! “I love watching Project Runway,” says Milly. “I would love to get good enough at designing and sewing clothes that I could actually wear.”

The Oh So Suite Life
Imagine going to a taping of your fave Disney Channel show, to then end up guest starring in it. These lucky ladies were discovered in the audience of Suite Life of Zack and Cody. “Dylan and Cole [Sprouse] were really friendly and chatty from the first moment on set,” says Becky of their experience. “They helped us feel less nervous when we were filming.”

“During breaks we would hang out with other guest stars in Dylan and Cole's dressing rooms,” says Milly, “play games and even have arm wrestling competitions!  Even though we didn't win against the boys, I think everyone was surprised at how strong our arms were.”
English Beauties
Like their characters, the girls hail from England. And what’s one thing they love doing with their fam? “Every year we go to Wimbledon to watch the tennis tournament,” says Becky. “We really look forward to it [because] we get to see tennis and visit our friends and family at the same time. Our younger sister Lola wants to be a tennis player, so we always joke that one day we might watch her playing there!” 

A Perfect Pair
While this dynamic duo’s rising to superstardom together, what’s their favorite thing about being twins? Each other! “The best thing about being a twin is always having your best friend around and never feeling lonely,” says Milly.

But that doesn’t mean the two are exactly alike. “Milly is tidier and much more organized,” says Becky. “Even though I try to be on time, I always seem to get a bit behind schedule! Fortunately, Milly is always ahead of schedule, so between the both of us we manage to get things done on time.”

Looks like blonds really do have the power to take a stand. Be sure to catch Milly and Becky Rosso in Legally Blondes, out this Tuesday, April 28.
