Amelia and April Maddison, 21, have built a £2.2million-a-year “twin fantasy” empire by spending big to look even more identical – but say they draw a firm line at one thing
Adult star twins have created a $3 million-a-year (£2.2 million) empire by pouring cash into cosmetic tweaks to make themselves look even more identical. As a result, they’ve been cashing in on the lucrative “twin fantasy” niche.
However, they have strict professional boundaries despite relentless requests from fans pushing them into “no-go” territory. Amelia and April Maddison, 21, from the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia said their success hinges on looking as identical as possible.
But, they insist there’s one line they’ll never cross: filming intimate scenes with each other. “We will get the occasional request for the ‘I word’ (incest), but obviously we’re not doing that,” April said.
“We do keep our boundaries very pronounced to our subscribers.” They say that while some fans make odd requests that stray into “no-go” territory, the more impossible it is to tell them apart, the more profitable it is.
April told News.com.au: “It makes us more like the twin fantasy. If our subscribers can’t tell us apart, it just creates more of a surreal experience.”
Amelia said: “The more similar we look, the more money subscribers are willing to spend. Therefore, more money.”
Even though one sister has a telltale tattoo, the pair have still splashed out to make themselves even harder to distinguish. They’ve had repeated trips to plastic surgeons in the quest for a closer match, racking up almost $40,000 (£29,000) so far, and counting, News.com.au reported.
The twins appeared in a recent episode of Stan’s Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, which shows how far they’ll go to and the reality of life as adult content creators. The twins were also revealed as the top clients at Quinn Everly’s Blue Rose Talent agency, where she says their success taps into a clear “twin fetish” among subscribers.
“The amount of commitment required for them to look identical is extreme,” Everly said in the episode. “It’s not easy.
“They don’t get the credit they deserve.” Even tiny tweaks – a change in hair length here, a different makeup routine there – can be enough to send their earnings swinging.
Amelia said: “When we first signed with Blue Rose, Quinn kind of workshopped our look a little bit. She kind of helped us match our hair colour, our lips were a little bit different sizes… she kind of just helped us match our looks more.”
April added: “We obviously want to be as down-to-earth and as real as we possibly can be, but if we can make more money looking more similar, then that’s what we’ll do.” And they’re not planning on giving up their spot at the top any time soon.
“We’ll always be the top creators… We’re like in our own category,” April said.
Amelia echoed: “Our only competition is ourselves.”
