Tia & Tamera Anne are identical African-American teens. Separated at birth, these fourteen-year-old twin sisters accidentally reunited while shopping at Fashion Fantasy in a mall in Detroit.
The chance meeting convinced their widowed adopted parents Ray Campbell [Tamera‘s] and Lisa Landry [Tia’s] to move into Ray’s house and share living accommodations [$350 a month rent] so that the girl’s can be together. Lisa brought along her dog named Sweetness [called “Cujo†by Ray].
Ray is the owner of Campbell’s Limousine Service and Lisa is a seamstress and fashion designer who sells “Fashions by Lisa†at Northland Mall. Tia and Tamera attended Roosevelt High School and later Michigan State University. As a child both the girls had hamsters that they named M. C. Hamster. They also like Beavis and Butt-head.
Tia and Tamera share a bedroom. And although they look the same, they soon realize just how different they are from one another. Tia (who is two minutes older than Tamera) is an honor student and well organized. She plays the piano and paints. Tamera, on the other hand, is sloppy and not much of a book worm. She once complained that Tia got all the good genes (the math gene, science gene, art gene, etc."). While Tia is the brains, Tamera is the outgoing one, loves to sing and to flirt with the boys. She later becomes a star athlete. To earn extra money, the twins worked at Rocket Burger [but later got fired from the job]. Tia and Tamera both made the third-string cheerleading squad. In Senior year, Tia got accepted to a private school and moved away from home and her best friend and sister, Tamera.
Friends of the family included Denise Mondello, a classmate at Roosevelt High; Terrence Winninham [who dated Lisa]; Principal Mitushka; a young eighth grader named Roger Evans [he had a crush on Tamara]; Tyreke Scott, Ray’s mechanic [he dated Tia]; Jordon Bennett [he dated
Tamera]; Vivica Sinclair Shaw; and Diavian Johnson and Simone Flasser [the girl’s college friends].
The twins later discovered their natural parents were Rachel Gavin, a black artist who died during childbirth and Matt Sullivan, a white globe-trotting photojournalist whose newly born kids were given up for adoption before he could find them. Tamera later accompanied Matt to Africa for a summer photo shoot; Tia’s mom married Victor Sims [her romance with Ray fizzled]; Tia got a New York internship with the WNBA; and Ray accepted a position with the governor [Ray had earlier run for the senate but lost]. heart layout @ HOT FreeLayouts.com music / movies
