PETA Hates Hairy-Kate and Trashley

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

Per usual, the PETA kids were on hand to protest the Olsen twins’ signing of their new book, Influence, in LA last night.

“The Olsen twins support an industry that forces animals to live in tiny wire cages their entire lives and electrocutes and kills them for vanity,” PETA rep Ashley Byrne said.

In addition to wearing fur and animal skins, says PETA, the twins also use both materials in their fashion line, The Row.

What do you guys think?

Do MK and Ash have a responsibility to go all vegan in their fashion line and in their personal style choices?

Quotables

“For me it was laziness. I wore my pyjamas and threw on whatever was warm enough. It still amazes me. It’s just layers and it doesn’t make any sense to me at all.”

Mary-Kate Olsen, on the attention paid to her fashion sense.

The Olsen Twins: Budding Literati?

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

Early copies of the Olsen twins’ book, Influence, are out, and the reviews?

Generally positive!

Says NY Mag:

Readers, we just got a copy of the Olsen twins’ new book, Influence. And it’s fantastic. We’re not even being sarcastic. We haven’t felt this way about a book since the one all about the costumes in the Sex and the City movie landed on our desk. Influence consists only of interviews conducted by the Olsens (with editor Derek Blasberg in tow) with the world’s most famous designers, photographers, artists, and tastemakers alongside pictures of them, their work, and the Olsens. We’re talking long, involved, revealing interviews that are, you know, entertaining. With people like John Galliano, Christian Louboutin, Terry Richardson, Richard Prince, and more. Yes, a coffee-table book that’s more than worth a read!

NY Mag also posted some snippets from the Olsens’ interview with Karl Lagerfeld, which is, admittedly, totally awesome.

I think I might have to buy this book.

Mary-Kate Olsen: Still Cooler Than You Are

Mary-Kate Takes Her Man Out

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

MK brought her boyfriend, Nate Lowman, to the Benjamin Cho show on Tuesday.

Nate’s an artist and an NYU grad. You can check out some of his work here. I’ll be the first to admit that I totally don’t get it. But I don’t get most art things unless they’re spelled out for me. That’s why I’m a writer. I look at art and I’m like, “Uh … it’s … purple?” Then I wait expectantly for someone to praise my observational skills. If nobody does, I hike my skirt up and try again. This is how I navigate the world in general.

But I digress.

I think it’s worth noting that MK has really filled out recently. Now, before you start in on me, I am NOT calling her fat. I do not think she looks fat. I think she looks like a normal healthy human being lately and not like someone whose internal organs may be digesting themselves for sustenance. I wonder if this dude has anything to do with helping her get over her food issues.

Healthy!

Who would’ve thought we’d ever see the day?

Mary-Kate Olsen and Nicole Richie, both smiling for a photograph, and neither looking like they might blow over if somebody sneezes.

MK’s little rat-tail braid?

Is another story.

But, in general, they both look great, and really healthy, and that’s great to see. I was tired of trying to decide which of them to put more money on in the company’s bi-monthly Death Pool. Now everything just goes to Amy Winehouse.

Mary-Kate Is Off the Hook

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

For whatever reason, the DEA has ended its investigation into the death of Heath Ledger, so Mary-Kate will not have to testify before a grand jury. We’ll also probably never know how he got the OxyContin that contributed to his death, other than “illegally.”

Sigh.

Don’t take that kind of shit unless it’s prescribed by a doctor, kids … a doctor that you didn’t pay off! It’s very very dangerous!!!
