'Times' Freelancer Mary-Kate Hates The Press

Doree Shafrir · 02/27/07 06:19PM

Her New York Times byline notwithstanding, Mary-Kate Olsen (and sis Ashley) have a distrustful relationship with the press, at least when it comes to their own fashion line. You know, The Row? Which is supposedly available at Maxfield and Barneys? But who's actually seen the clothes? Not stern NYT fashion critic Cathy Horyn—and she won't be seeing them anytime soon. WWD reports that the Olsen gals are "scheduled" to emerge, elf-like, at Paris Fashion Week, where the fall-winter collection of their "fledgling designer ready-to-wear" label will debut. But! "A slate of high-end retailers is scheduled to see their fall-winter collection at a showroom here —with no cranky press critics, thank you very much." Those twins are just so sensitive.

Olsen Twin Tells: Distinguishing MK From A

Emily Gould · 01/02/07 06:00PM

We enjoyed Star's cover story on Mary Kate Olsen's reanorexia as much as or possibly more than most people — "HER EATING COACH IS GONE" is a great name for a post-hardcore band, by the way — but we couldn't help but notice that some of the pictures of "Mary Kate" looked suspiciously full-bodied and — how to put this? — differently nosejobbed than the others. Today, WWD confirmed our suspicions: according to their publicist, the twin in at least one of the pictures is indeed Ashley, not Mary Kate. We guess those tricky twins confuse the Star photo department by periodically switching off haircolors, but we rely on other clues to distinguish one from the other. We thought we'd help out the Star photo editors with a handy list of our personal Olsen twin "tells" — subtle clues that reliably determine which platform-booted, layered-looked lady is the rexy twin and which is the relatively healthy-looking fraternal counterpart.

Ashley:
1) Generally wears about three fewer layers.
2) Weighs about 20 lbs more.
3) Japanese-style eye-widening surgery worked out better.

Gossip Roundup: Paris is PETA's Worst-Dressed

Jessica · 12/15/05 11:08AM

• Taking a breather from Anna Wintour, PETA lists Paris Hilton as their worst-dressed celebrity. Other honorees include Kimberly Stewart and Tara Reid, because being a skank hurts the fuzzy animals. [Scoop]
• Ashley Olsen is late to Karl Lagerfeld's show at the Chanel store, then fails to recognize the designer when he waves to her. Such unacceptable behavior, you'd think Olsen were raised as a civilian or some such. [Page Six]
• The cab-stealing continues: Bill Maher swipes a taxi from a man with a BABY in a SNOWSTORM. Next up, stealing cabs from paraplegics with broken breathing tubes. [Lowdown (2nd item)]
• Don't you hate it when your cock is so huge that it has to be digitally erased? Oh, you don't have that problem? Scoff. [Page Six]
• Nancy Grace of CNN is suing her stalker for damages. Just so long as she keeps paying attention to him! [R&M]
