Allen and Rashad have a beautiful bond that has stood the test of time. They have always been each other's rocks. They were born to the Pulitzer-nominated poet Vivian Ayers and grew up in Houston, Texas.

Ayers is proud of her daughters who have built an empire for themselves.

Their family did not come from money, so they could not attend special art classes or go to a movie. But their mother always assured them that the universe wanted their creativity.

In 1983, Allen made history by becoming the first Black woman to win a Golden Globe in the Best Actress category for "Fame." Currently, she plays Dr. Catherine Avery in the hit medical drama "Grey's Anatomy."

Rashad, who shot to fame with her role in "The Cosby Show," bagged a People's Choice Award in the Favorite Actress in a New TV Series category in 1985. It marked a beginning of a glorious era for the actress.
