Two 17-year-olds, Jack Gilinsky and Jack Johnson, have been friends since kindergarten. Now they’re Vine superstars with over 2 million followers. Nearly every day they produce six-second videos. The most famous or most favorite clip is “The Nerd Vandals” which features them as nerds drawing the number 16 after the 4×4 decal on 4×4 trucks. Now they’re singing on Vine. Their latest song is “Wild Life” which includes this lyric: “everybody hangin’ like a string from a Tampax.”
After tonight’s Teen Choice Awards, where they’re nominated for “Choice Viner,” they’ll continue their DigiTour, sponsored by Candie’s (also a sponsor of the TCAs). Jack and Jack plan to go to college together. They have their eyes on USC, alma mater of fave film director Judd Apatow (The 40 Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Funny People).
