With her new film “The Wackness” hitting theaters in limited release this July 3rd, Mary-Kate Olsen is hitting the promotional trail in full force.
The former “Full House” hottie was spotted outside of the Ed Sullivan Theater in midtown Manhattan yesterday charming the throng of fans eagerly awaiting her arrival prior to her appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman.
Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen leave the Chanel Fall Winter 2008/09 Fashion show on February 29, 2008 in Paris, France.
Hugh Hefner is still out there trolling for young starlets to reveal all in his magazine. The 81-year-old men’s magazine mogul wants Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to pose for Playboy.
He originally asked the twins to model for him when they turned 18 three years ago - but was turned down - hopes the girls will accept his invitation to appear in a special June edition of his adult publication to mark their 22nd birthday.
No word from the Olsen twins but with their interest in high-end fashion these days, I think Hefner has got no shot.
Playboy also wants Lindsay Lohan to appear in his magazine - and recreate Marilyn Monroe’s famous naked swim from her ‘Something’s Got to Give’ movie. Lohan recently stripped off in a New York magazine shoot to pay homage to Monroe. The racy shoot proved so popular that the magazine’s website crashed under the massive volume of hits.
Lohan, 21, teamed with Monroe photographer Bert Stern to recreate the famous 1962 photo shoot of the blonde bombshell at the Bel Air hotel.
“Now we hear Lindsay is tempted to continue her nude homage to MM,” Liz Smith wrote in the New York Post earlier this week.
“Playboy’s Hugh Hefner has offered the young star the chance to re-create Marilyn’s famed nude swim from the unfinished film ‘Something’s Got To Give.’”
Lindsay seems pretty desperate for the money so it’s not to far fetched to think she might go for it, if the price is right.
PETA has gone to great lengths to attack the Olsen twins for wearing fur. They have dubbed them The Trollsens and are calling Mary-Kate and Ashley, Hairy Kate and Trashley. They’ve set up both a website and Myspace page for their campaign and they sound pretty sarcastic. From the Myspace,
About me: Hi, we’re Hairy Kate and Trashley Trollsen, and like most trolls, we live under a bridge and wait for furry animals to walk by so we can skin them and wear them as hats. Because we’re celebrities, we don’t have to live by the same rules that ugly people like you do, and if we want to wrap ourselves up in someone else’s skin, or drape our bodies in the rotting remains of someone’s family, we totally can! And boy, do we ever. If you’d like to dress us up yourselves, you can do that here.
Who I’d like to meet: We would like to meet cute, furry animals like chinchillas, foxes, and minks—but not until they’ve been beaten, electrocuted, skinned, and turned into coats.
In Olsen’s defense, synthetic fur will never feel as soft as the fur from genuine electrocuted chinchillas, foxes and minks. Also, saying Mary-Kate and Ashley wait under bridges to capture and skin furry animals for hats is pretty silly. It’s too hot for hats.
Update: According to Celebrity Babylon, the Olsen’s really love their fur.
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have their apartment up for sale in New York’s Greenwich Village.
The Greenwich Village property, which the 21-year-old twins have never lived in, boasts 12 rooms & was bought for a $7.3 million, has just gone on the market for a cool $12 million. And that would be a cool 4.7 mil profit if it sells at list price! That’s on top of the fact that Mary-Kate and Ashley have been renting out the luxury condo since they first bought it for $35,000 a month. I guess it takes money to make money and they are a couple of smart cookies business wise.
It has twelve rooms, one of which is a 53ft entertaining room with a center fireplace. It has a private elevator, two 100 square foot walk-in closets, and views of the Hudson River.
According to the real estate website, the 5,725 square foot apartment has some of “the most spectacular water and city views in all of Manhattan through 53 large picture windows.”
Four additional bedrooms, a powder room, four full marble baths, plus 24 hour doorman, concierge and in-house valet.
