why valentine?
first the sites name was "double trouble" but i thought this name was too usual, so i thought about "cuteness", but i didnt like this that much, so i named it valentine! the name valentine came from the birthday of sam & david camden on 7th heaven, because the twins were born on valentine's day!
where do i know lorenzo from?
you probably know lorenzo (and his brother nikolas, who is the boy on the left in the picture) from the wb's most successful show "7th heaven", where they are playing the youngest addition to the camden clan, sam & david! lorenzo plays sam by the way!
why lorenzo?
why i chose to make a fanlisting for him and his brother you ask? because they totally deserve it! i've been loving them since the birth of sam & david! they're so cute and have an amazing acting talent considering their age! and now that theyre growing older, their storyline gets bigger and better each episode! i think there are some big things coming up for lorenzo and nikolas!
who is lorenzo?
lorenzo was born on september 3rd 1998 (although on the wb, it is said that their bday was septmber 21st) in woodland hills, california to proud parents tony and shawna brino. lorenzo and his 3 siblings nikolas, myrinda and zachary are quadruplets. none of the is identical. they made their acting debut aged 5 months only. in the beginning, lorenzo and nikolas were backed up by their 2 siblings, but now, that they're older, they're doing the scenes alone.
some cool facts

-when they were younger they used to get into alot of trouble on the set and according to mackenzie rosman they loved to make funny noises.
-when they were younger the 4 quads were also backed up by a set of twins named bryce and james braxmeyer for the tv show 7th heaven.
-lorenzo & nikolas now play the role of sam & david their siblings are no longer on the show. but according to their mother, they think the'd all be on tv! Very few times they are though, when the twins are only visible in the background or something.
-brenda hampton (creator of the show) loves all the 4 of them. she says they were actually only planned to be by standers and they could have changed them any time, but the brinos are so funny, sweet and clever, she says that they are lucky to have them. She says they would be the most wonderful kids in the world.
-they are fraturnal twins.
-when they started 7th heaven they were only 5 months old.
-myrinda had to have a boyish haircut, so she could play one of the twins in the 1st 2 years.
-catherine hicks, their show mother uses to play with them on the set and barry watson (playing matt) likes to play aeroplane with them.
-simon (played by david gallagher) once sang 'Oh when the Saints go marchin' in for them! (awww!)
-they also love to be in the room, where mackenzie rosman (playing their sister ruthie) is being schooled because there are macks 2 rats called 'Dixie' and 'Babe'. (their mom says they always have to go there and watch the rats.)
-from mackenzies teacher they caught the yiddish word

-the last 4 months of the pregnancy shawna (their mom) spent in the hospital. there she met the mother of the triplets who play frank and alice's triplets in FRIENDS!!
-because in the united states law, kid actors are not allowed to work more than a few hours and therefor they often take twins for the roles of small kids, so they have a backup, warner bros. was looking for quadruplets to play the role of sam & david. so the mother of the triplets told them about shawna brino.
-at first, they didnt wanna do it. They thought it would be too much stress for all of'em and they didnt even know 7th heaven. but then they said yes, cause they thought it would be something they could later remember and they thought it would only be for a few episodes.
-between the months july and april, they need the kids 2 to 3 times a week for several scenes. therefor their mother gets up at 5 am and drives to the set in santa monica. she arrives there at 7:30. she waits i the trailer while the kids are shooting their scenes.
-their parents say they are gonna do it as long as they have funworking there. They wanna save the money they make and later pay the college for them with it.
