Aly & AJ are back


By Dean Poling

Interviewing pop-TV-movie stars Aly & AJ during a conference call can get confusing. Quite often the interviewer isn’t certain who said what. They often finish each other’s sentences and occasionally say the same thing simultaneously.

But, hey, spend time with any sisters, close sisters, who have and do spend a lot of their time together and these things happen.

Aly and AJ continue spending time together this Saturday evening as they return to perform in concert at Wild Adventures.

These sisters spend a lot of time together, not just as family, but as business partners and as a creative team.

“We’re sisters,” one says. “We fight every day over something.”

“But we get along most of the time,” the other says, “and we usually think alike in work and business.”

“We’re closer because of all we do together.”

“We have to bond or it’s not going to work ...”

“Being together 24/7.”

“On tour, Aly and I have to relate,” AJ says. “If one of us is struggling in the boy department, the other one is too because we’re always away.”

For this phone interview, each one is home, in their separate rooms, in California.

Born Alyson and Amanda Michalka, being Aly & AJ started as family nicknames, which the sisters have further modified and shortened to Al and “Age.” Aly is the oldest at 19 while AJ is 17.

Their careers started when they were little girls, always singing, forming their own band by the time AJ was 9 years old.

Aly found work on TV in the show “Phil of the Future,” and both have had other acting jobs.

In 2005, the debut Aly & AJ album “Into the Rush” went platinum.
