Queen Bey discovered Halle and Chloe Bailey
Now, successful actress Halle Bailey and her sister Chloe Bailey are self-taught musicians who were found by none other than Queen Bey, a.k.a. Beyoncé. The sisters released two studio albums and one mix tape after she signed them to her Parkwood label in 2013 for a whopping $1 million deal. As the opening act on Beyoncé’s The Formation World Tour during its European leg in 2016, the sister duo’s careers continued to soar.
The sisters are very close and frequently post on social media to express their affection for one another. Chloe described Halle as her best friend, whom she cannot live without, and their friendship has always been cherished by their fans. Despite having a very successful career together, the sisters have not held back on developing as individual artists over the years, as evidenced by the fact that, after nine years, they each have their own social media accounts.
Where Chloe is focused on her solo music career, Halle is focused on acting, and in 2021, Chloe opened up about their respective solo career while still being connected like always.
“She said it’s been the coolest thing. And I love it, because we’re both so strong together as a group, and also individually, and I’m just so proud of her and all the solo endeavors that she’s been going on.”
She further noted that she feels the same love and support from Halle for her career and she cannot be more proud of both of them and wait for them to achieve everything they have always dreamt of. At the premiere of The Little Mermaid, Chloe said that she is very proud of Halle, adding that she is her number one fan.

Are Halle and Chloe Bailey twins?
Many fans wondered whether the sisters were twins despite having a lot in common, especially after hearing Ungodly Hour and learning that they had played twins on television. On the popular Freeform series Grown-ish, Chloe and Halle portrayed twin sisters Jazz and Sky Forster, who were hoping to be Olympic athletes.
Chloe Bailey was born on July 1st, 1998 whereas Halle Bailey was born on March 27, 2000. The successful sister-duo, during an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2017, shared that even though they are not twins, they do feel like twins. Halle said,
“I and Chloe feel like twin sisters “all the time,” adding, “Sometimes we forget that I’m the younger sister. She’s my best friend, and we were just channeling ourselves for the characters, though it’s also our alter egos with their sassiness and attitude.”
Halle Bailey felt the support of sister Chloe Bailey all along
Halle Bailey recently appeared in Disney’s The Little Mermaid and, according to THR, her sister decided to stay nearby to help her younger sister ease her way into not only filming as Ariel but also make her feel like she has someone rooting for her from home.
In a recent cover story interview with The Guardian, The Little Mermaid actress shared,
“She’s a big part of the reason why I was able to be OK every time I walked on that Little Mermaid set. She came to London with me for the first month, just to make sure I was OK. She was like, ‘You’re good, you can do this’, and then she went back home.”
Their independent journeys, as she puts it, were inevitable, noting that they were never really that far away from each other.
Halle was recently signed on to play Nettie Harris in an upcoming musical, a coming-of-age period drama, which charts the struggles of a black woman living in the southern US in the early 1900s. The actress shares that she was excited to play Nettie Harris because of the bond she shares with Chloe, as she was able to draw on her own experiences.
The Color Purple, starring Chloe Bailey is set to be released in the US on Christmas Day 2023 and in the UK on 26 January 2024 in the UK.
