The social media stars join an already huge list of guest stars, which includes Dr. Drew Pinsky, David Faustino and Stacey Dash.
The additions also come on a year when Sharknado has pumped up its younger cast -- with the addition of Hannah Montana alum Ryan Newman, for example -- in efforts to attract younger viewers to the campy fun.
Sharknado: The 4th Awakens premieres Sunday, July 31 at 8 p.m. ET.
