Two adorable biracial twins who became famous for their two separate skin tones — one white and one black — are now a year old.
Kalani Dean has light skin and blue eyes like her mother, while Jarani has darker skin and brown eyes like their father.

The girls, who are from Illinois, celebrated their first birthday on Sunday with a castle-shaped cake complete with a princess each.Whitney Meyer, the twins’ mom, said people are still surprised by their contrasting complexions.

“You get a lot of people with confused faces that see them [in matching clothes] because of their skin tones," Meyer told InsideEdition.com. "But once I tell them they're twins they get so tickled. They get a lot of pictures from people."

[distantmantra]

they look the same...

Yeah. It might be the pictures, but I'm having a hard time telling the girls apart.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Went to high school with some twins like this. People were so confused at first

 

[ahoyhoy]

they look the same...

Seriously. Are there other pictures out there?

 

[zeemumu]

Yeah. It might be the pictures, but I'm having a hard time telling the girls apart.

Easier to see the difference in the picture on the left than the one on the right.

 

[talkingood]

Yeah. It might be the pictures, but I'm having a hard time telling the girls apart.

This picture on FB does a better job of showing the difference between them. Pretty damn cute.

 

[soundscream]

They really arent that diffrent looking, aside from the hair and eyes. Skin tone is very close in those pictures.

Edit: NVM better picture

Yeah this picture does a much better job of showing the difference between the two.

 

[Guevara]

For what it's worth: a lot of white kids have blue eyes until they get older, and they darker and turn brown.

 

[Dynomutt]

[Gordon Shumway]

Right? lol..

 

[Izuna]

Dont act like those first two pictures aren't incredibly washed out.

The one stripe rule in full effect

They white washing the kids? Making a gravy? What's going on?

 

[MyleMan1010]

You can tell the lighter one isn't white though. My son is 1/4 black, 3/4 white and his skin color is very similar. Those are beautiful baby girls!

 

[FeenixRising]

I thought you were talking about these two

Until I read the first birthday part

 

[Platy]

Reminds of that awkward interview with the 2 girls who were also biracial twins and how the reporters were making incredibly racist questions

edit : exactly those 2, FeenixRising

 

[ZOONAMI]

Yep pics in the yahoo article both babies look the same. Pic added by op almost looks shopped in comparison.

What does acting have to do with anything? I see the difference..wanna fight about it?

 

[Mahonay]

Not sure how I feel about "stripy". Sounds kind of offensive. Is that a normal term for biracial people? My sister is half black and I've never heard that.

 

[Kinyou]

Now there's an idea for a sitcom

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Haha, that's cute as hell.

I think he literally means "stripy"

In the first 2 pictures its not as noticeable as the text of the article made it seem. No need to add the for the blind part.

Lol oh I didn't know that was a thing. My apologies

 

[spindashing]

This is actually one of the best responses ever lmao

Jokes..some are quite sensitive to them. I can tell them apart regardless, gramps..you'll be ok.

I'll stand next to a tree..can't tell us apart.

 

[mantidor]

I remember a case from the UK a while back and the twins were considerable different, let's see if I can find them.

yup, it even made it to Snopes.

 

[Barzul]

Genetics...fascinating stuff. Legit wonder what the average American will look like 100 years from now.

Youre being way too aggressive.

 

[Prototype Viktor]

White and black skin tones? Where, they both look Japanese, you can tell by the names as well

 

[Bluekaveli]

That's pretty rad

You must be from Melmac if you can see an extremely noticeable diffrence to describe the strange looks they get as described in the article off those first two pics.
