Are tegan and sara both gay

A house party for me now means more than two people over and me going to the store to get wine. In an exclusive chat with E! News, Tegan and Sara and the team behind High School explain why they were motivated to tell a very particular story in the new series about the duo’s early lives.

Tegan: New Kids on the Block was huge for us.

Sara: My first choice as a child was New Kids on the Block. If anything, I loved having boyfriends because I could talk about how much I liked girls with them all the time. We revisited that defining era in music — and even before then, when the girls were hanging New Kids on the Block posters in their bedroom — during our interview with the Quin sisters.

Everything you could possibly have. We were fairly disgusting and doing things that I would be embarrassed to have on camera.

Identical twins Sara (left) and Tegan Quin began making music together as teenagers. It was very empowering. What was the first pop album you owned? Around that same time, I remember really getting excited about Michael Jackson, because he was on the radio all the time.
