Linky and Luna (musical duo)

Linky and Luna are a pop-punk duo based in Jesselton, Sabah, Borneo, composed of siblings Thomas Ahlström (born June 19, 2008) and Maria Ahlström (born May 6, 2005). The duo respectively play the characters Lincoln Loud and Luna Loud from the Nickelodeon animated series The Loud House.

Life
Although little information has been disclosed about the Ahlström siblings' personal lives, they were born and raised in Jesselton to parents of Finland Swedish descent.

Career
The duo currently have 1 million subscribers on YouTube and upload on a daily basis. Much of their content composes of music, although also present are vlogs and skits filmed with their parents Emma and Axel (playing the Louds' parents), five other sisters namely Erika, Malena, Anna, Sara and Julie (playing Lynn, Lana, Lola, Lily, and Leni respectively), and four actors playing the remaining Loud sisters (Courtney Guzman as Lori, Siti Hassan as Luan, Rowena Chow as Lucy and Annie Abendan as Lisa).

Despite acknowledging that the duo are from Jesselton, they still claim to be from the fictional US town of Royal Woods, Michigan, the setting of The Loud House. Their house has been decorated to resemble the eponymous residence of the Louds in the series, and for their skits taking place outside the house, all scenes depicting Royal Woods are filmed in Jesselton.

Attempted predation incident
On December 18, 2019, Borneoan YouTuber Addy allegedly contacted Thomas on Discord using an alternative account, asking him to show his private parts. Initially the two were chatting about normal topics, but the conversation was stopped after the request was given out. Thomas blocked the alternative account thereafter. The incident was one of many cases of attempted child predation covered by Indonesian YouTuber Boyfriend Malachite, along with the DJ Panda attempted rape case.
