These talented young women have achieved a lot in a relatively brief period of time.
This is the untold truth of Chloe x Halle.
One of the first videos the siblings posted featured them singingBeyonce’s"Best Thing I Never Had.
“In addition to being downright adorable, the 2011 video showcased the duo’s stunning harmonies.
“The first few songs we wrote were horrible,” Halle told the magazine.
“But as time went on, they turned into something beautiful.”
Thanks to their YouTube videos, Chloe x Halle began to attract a growing online fanbase.
“It was three years in the making,” Halle Bailey revealed during an interview withToday.
The siblings also shared the advice that Beyonce gave them.
She shared another important Beyonce-learned lesson in an interview withGlamour.
“There’s always something that can get better.”
The magazine further noted that the duo was “pulling soul in exciting new directions.”
“Pretty much the whole album we did in our living room,” Halle toldBBC News.
That DIY attitude wound up creating the ideal atmosphere where their creativity could flow unchecked.
The resulting track was"Grown.”
Writing and performing the theme song wasn’t the duo’s only association with the series.
“We started very young,” Halle toldGlamour.
“First we were acting around Atlanta, where we’re from.
From there it grew into singing.”
“Grown-ish[has] been so much fun!
The sisters also detailed which acts playing Coachella 2018 they were most looking forward to seeing.
Chloe was “definitely excited to see the Queen Bey,” pointing to Beyonce’s headlining set.
The duo’s Coachella performance was generally well received, although opinions did differ.
In 2018, the sisters shared a big announcement with their fans.
“We will be opening for the North American leg of On the Run II.
Chatting withEntertainment Tonight, Chloe admitted the siblings were “just super-duper excited.”
As the talented Bailey sisters toldSaint Heron, they’re both multi-instrumentalists who taught themselves how play.
Halle shared, “We taught ourselves on YouTube with our instruments.
While Halle was humble about her guitar skills, her sister was not.
“I’m so proud of her.”
Another of their celebrity fans is former first lady Michelle Obama.
“I feel like it was straight out of a dream.
“To just have someone like Mrs. Obama introduce us in that way was super cool.”
She went on, “She’s literally a queen.
We were in awe of her.
She’s so nice.”
The resulting song was “Warrior.”
Added Halle, “It’s a mantra!
I can be a warrior!
Yes, I am a warrior.”
Bailey briefly addressed the backlash in an interview withVariety.
“I just feel like this role was something bigger than me, and greater.”
“I’m not afraid to experiment,” she said.
As Chloe told theLos Angeles Times, “It’s been pretty cool evolving our style.
