'''Millionaires''' is a [[pop music|pop]]-[[electronic music|electronic]] group consisting three girls from [[Orange County, California]]. The group gained huge popularity on [[MySpace]] and climbed the charts early on in their career. The group consists of sisters, Melissa Marie and Allison Green, and their best friend, Dani Artaud.<ref>http://www.myspace.com/millionaires</ref> 
The girls performed the theme songs for ''Teen Cribs'' and ''[[A Double Shot at Love]]'' on [[MTV]].

== Background ==
Millionaires started in August 14, 2007, when Melissa Marie and Allison were just messing around and made a song on their new laptop with GarageBand. They named the song "I Like Money", and decided they needed a name for themselves to make a [[MySpace]] profile for the song. Melissa Marie and Allison decided on Millionaires, to go with the name of the song. The next day, Dani came in the mix, and they made their second song, "Hoe Down".

After a few months,DJ Hyphy Crunk brought them out and they began to perform shows locally and traveled only small distances for shows. They got spots in music festivals such as Bamboozle Left 2008 and Audio Overload 2008. By July 2008, they were ready to tour and they went out on their first tour co-headlining with [[Breathe Carolina]] across the West coast. Later in July, they headlined the GET F$CKED UP tour.

In July 2008, they performed on [[MTV]]'s ''[[TRL]]'' as part of On The Radar,<ref>http://www.mtv.com/photos/?fid=1529568&pid=3103093</ref> a segment where popular unsigned bands perform. The girls returned in January and February 2009 on their Just Got Paid, Let's Get Laid tour, which sold out every date.

They made a short song titled "Ooh Uh Huh", which became the theme song for [[MTV]]'s reality show ''[[A Double Shot at Love|A Double Shot At Love]]'' with the [[Ikki Twins]]<ref>http://www.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=230323216&blogID=454889830</ref>. Their song "Hey Rich Boy" was also used as the theme for [[MTV]]'s ''Teen Cribs''. Their song "Alcohol" was also featured on the soundtrack for the third series of ''[[Skins]]''. Their music and backing tracks are composed by Mark Maxwell.
