Shane and Sia Barbi


The Barbi Twins (born April 2, 1963) are identical twins famous as 1990's pinup models that posed together in two of Playboy's top selling issues and for four calendars distributed worldwide. In July 2002, they were named as official pinup ladies of the United States Army. They got their start in modelling, at the age of seven, when they posed for a layout in the Sears catalog.

Fame disappeared from them quickly. They both developed bulimia and have since become speakers about the disease. They wrote a book Dying To Be Healthy: A Breakthrough Diet, Nutrition and Self Help Guide (ISBN 1892049422), published in April 2001 by Triumph Books , about their experiences. The money from the book sales goes to eating disorder organizations.

The twins were born in San Diego, California.
