Who are Mark and Jonnie Houston?
Identical twins, Mark and Jonnie, own hotspots in Los Angeles, including No Vacancy, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s, Black Rabbit Rose, and Break Room 86.
The brothers are twins, as well as business partners, and regularly clash with celebrities such as Diana Ross and Bella Thorne.
An avid social media poster, Mark shares his lavish lifestyle with his 14,000 Instagram followers.
The duo grew up in their mother’s MonteCarlo bar and then moved to the next bar on Hollywood Boulevard.
Since growing up surrounded by a busy atmosphere, Mark and Jonnie have become the city’s most prominent club owners.
But when they grew up, the twins never wanted to own bars or carry on their mother’s legacy.
Speaking to Los Angeles magazine in 2023, the brothers revealed that they embarked on a completely different career path when they left school.
Mark said: “We were 18. Growing up in a bar, that wasn’t going to be our life.”
Now, Mark and Jonnie own 10 clubs in the city, with a lot at stake for their future.
Mark recently paid sweet tribute to his beloved twin Jonnie with a gushing Instagram post on National Twin Day.
He wrote: ‘Double trouble, double fun! Celebrating National Twin Day with my amazing brother and business partner! Together, we conquer challenges, create innovative solutions and make dreams come true.’

Which twin did Kayne hit?
TMZ’s sources have called Bianca’s accusations “completely wrong and simply inaccurate” because there is no evidence to support her claims.
Sources claim that a man bumped into Bianca in the lobby, which was said to be quite busy at the time.
The incident happened quickly and the man continued on his way and left to sit with some friends.
Shortly after, Kanye approached the table to confront the man and eventually punched him in the face twice.
However, he apparently hit the wrong man: the other twin and not the one who bumped into Bianca in the hallway.
It is unclear at this time which of the twins ran into Bianca and which was ultimately hit by Kanye.
The Houston twins are said to spend quite a bit of time at the Chateau Marmont, although it’s unclear if they’ve interacted with Kanye before.
The rapper left the hotel after the incident, long before the police arrived, and the cops reportedly wanted to talk to Kanye after the altercation.
Police sources have been unable to find any evidence that one of the brothers assaulted Bianca in any way.
An investigation is underway and will be sent to the City Attorney to review and see if official charges will be filed.
Despite no evidence being found, Kanye’s team insists Bianca was assaulted that night.
“This was a physical and sexual assault and any attempt to undermine the seriousness of what happened is repellent and vile,” one of Kanye’s representatives said in a statement.
