Q: For those that are unfamiliar with the Legally Blondes concept, can you give us a quick summary of the movie?
A: Milly: Legally Blondes is the third Legally Blonde movie. It’s about Elle Woods’ British twin cousins, Izzy and Annie Woods, who we play, who move from England with their dad, and they go to a really posh prep school in California on a Scholarship. We don’t fit in because we don’t have much money like everyone else at the school, and we stick out in a bad way because we don’t dress like everybody else. And there’s this really mean girl called Tiffany who makes our lives miserable and she even frames us for something we didn’t do so we have to prove our innocence in the academic court! And throughout the film, we use the lawyer skills that we’ve inherited to get clothes and shoes for bargain prices!


Q: What was your first reaction when approached about making the film?
A: Becky: The first two movies are two of our favorite films so we were so thrilled to be asked to do the third one! Reese Witherspoon is one of our favorite actresses, so we were so excited that she was producing and presenting the movie.


Q: To what extent, if any, was Reece Witherspoon involved in influencing the direction of the movie?
A: Milly: From what we know, Reese was very involved from the audition process right through post-production!


Q: On screen, your characters get along quite well, aside from some “boy drama”. Do you get along well in real life?
A: Becky: Yes, we have very similar personalities, so we get along well! Most of the time! We love being identical twins! It's like having a built in best friend with you all the time. It's especially nice having a twin when you’re new at a school, like we’ve been several times, because you always have someone to sit next to at lunch and talk to on the first day. We do argue sometimes, though, over silly things!


Q: Do you enjoy making movies together, and do you anticipate continuing to do so? Or, would you prefer to find opportunities to work independent of each other?
A: Milly: Right now, we’re really enjoying working together. We’re filming our pilot for Disney Channel together, and if the audience likes Legally Blondes, then we’d love to do another one together. But, I’m sure in the future we’d like to do some separate projects too.


Q: Why should someone make a point to rent or buy Legally Blondes?
A: Becky: We think that Legally Blondes is a film that the whole family can watch together and find really funny and sweet! This movie’s actually geared towards a younger audience than the first two movies. If we weren’t in it or anything to do with it, we would go out and buy it ourselves! The main message in the movie is that you should never judge a book by its cover. Just because someone is different to you or doesn’t have much money, does not mean that you are better than them. It’s what kind of person you are that is way more important than how much money you have. You should not be ashamed of who you are. The other message in the movie is that girls can be fashionable and girly while at the same time still be responsible and get good grades.

Milly: There’s also some great behind-the-scenes featurettes on the DVD that show how the movie was made, the fashion in the movie, working with the sweet Chihuahuas, and a peek into what it’s like being twins! We really hope we don’t disappoint all the Legally Blonde fans!


Any additional comments:
A: We read your review and we’re sorry you didn’t like the movie! Fortunately though, most tween and teen viewers who have seen it so far have loved it! So we really hope lots of other people will too!

Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to share our answers with your readers!

With very best wishes,
Milly and Becky Rosso


Neil: Thanks very much to Milly and Becky for taking the time to share with our readers! I appreciate your well-thought answers and am glad to have you share more insight on the film to help people make a more informed decision.
