Obsession of the Moment: Meet the Winklevoss Twins from “Social Network”

FacebookTwitterTumblrShare

The Daily Truffle shares several friends with the Winklevoss Twins portrayed in the Facebook movie including one set of female twins, a fellow Olympian, a couple Harvard-Westlake grads and a handful or Ivy Leaguers and Harvard U alum.

The photo here is from Cameron & Tyler’s “matriculation” in Oxford where they are in graduate school. We don’t have matriculation in this country but it is a traditional ceremony that welcomes first year students into university in England.

Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss were recently in L.A. for a party Cameron was throwing for his new website Guest of a Guest and to go to Coachella. The twins invited their film star counterparts – Armie Hammer and Josh Pence (more Armie than Josh of course) to join them at the party which was held at the Mondrian.

One of the cool things in the Facebook movie The Social Network is the attention they pay to the detail of the twins’ lives – including and most important to me – the Henley Royal Regatta - the movie filmed on location for this scene in England – and even portrays meeting Prince Albert of Monte Carlo. #HEROSTATUS

The twins were invited to a bunch of screenings and premieres for the film ie. the Cinema Society screening in New York. The Cinema Society – for those of you who don’t know – screen films for social types and celebrities before they are out in theaters.
