Traveling with your siblings can either be wonderful or treacherous.  It really depends on your relationship, and how quickly you can recover from minor squabbles.  The Amazing Race, surprisingly, has yet to see a team of siblings win the grand prize of one million dollars.  Nick and Starr could very easily be the ones who change this.  Nick is an actor, Starr is a cheerleader, but judging by their interview video below, they are smarter than you might assume after simply reading their bios.  The Amazing Race is only a couple of weeks away, and in our continued dissection of every single Amazing Race 13 team, I present to you Nick and Starr.

Occupations: Nick is an actor, currently working on off-Broadway plays in New York.  For the past three seasons, Starr has been a cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys. 

Recent Team They're Similar To:  This is an easy one.  Azaria and Hendekea were the last brother/sister team, and both teams are young and attractive, and likable. 

Relationship: Brother/Sister

Chances to Win:  Fairly good.  They are young and in shape.  They say they are best friends.  They claim to be very competitive.  It'll come down to how smart they are. 

Initial Thoughts:  The video gives me confidence.  They are down to earth and well-spoken.  They've traveled before but, most importantly, they've traveled together before.  They also look like they are good with people, and can easily bring in strangers to help them.  I can't tell if they're being a little bit arrogant and pretentious, or if they're simply being honest about their strengths.  They are young (22 and 21), and naivety might be a factor, but I doubt it.  Their worldliness should come in handy.  I have a sister, and I would love the opportunity to go on something like The Amazing Race with her.  Nick and Starr seem to embody that same sort of enthusiasm.
