The Olsen Twins are, the twins, Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen. They were a pop culture sensation from around 1988-2004. They started working in television, when they shared the role of Michelle Tanner in hit ABC sitcom 'Full House', before they'd even hit their 1st birthday. In their time on 'Full House' they became beloved by audiences who couldn't get enough of Michelle's cute personality, as well as phrases such as "you got it dude". Because of their rise in popularity they began to star in movies together so people could see them interact with one another - titles include 'To Grandmother's House We Go', 'Double, Double, Toil and Trouble' and 'How the West Was Fun'. Even after 'Full House' was cancelled in 1995, the Olsens continued to release movie after movie and between 1998 and 2002 had starred in the 3 TV shows 'Two of a Kind', 'Mary-Kate and Ashley in Action!' and 'So Little Time'. Then after the the release of, their last movie together, 'New York Minute', in 2004, they've both faded away. The Olsen Twins are the ultimate washed up child stars.
Scenario in 1999:
Mum: No, you can't watch 'Two of a Kind'. You know I watch the news at this time.
Sarah: But, mum. I have to watch 'Two of a Kind'. The Olsen Twins are my idols.

Scenario in 2009:
Mum: Hey, did you hear about Ashley Olsen?
Sarah: Who the hell is Ashley Olsen?

twin girl "actresses" that appear to closely resemble cocaine junkies, troll dolls, and fantasy middle-earth midget creatures. started off their 'careers' as the baby hobbit "Michelle" on the popular 90's show Full House. also went on to make irritating kid songs, and mind numbing movies (usually playing different personality twins that reunite with one another) also acted in a few TV shows to display their tween image. all these products and novelty fame created their huge m/b-illionaire empire aimed at little girls and also tweens adding to it by then launching a clothing line. now the pair are heading off to NYU for college in hopes of bypassing all the superiors in entertainment and to learn how to make their own crappy movies all by themselves only to quadruple the $$$

fans include: little girls, perverted old men, a tween, teenage boys who can only jerk off, and Anna Rexia.

present day way to tell them apart:
Ashley is semi-rexic
Mary Kate is a skeleton / has the body of Mr. Burns on the Simpsons
Isn't it odd that John Stamos (uncle Jesse) seperated with his model wife Rebecca Romijn from their 5 year marriage just a month before the olsen twins turned legal? hmmm?...

One horribly talentless person, who somehow seperated into two objects while still remaining the weight of one person.

1)One of the Olsen Twins should just eat the other one. Then they might look normal.
2) Now that the Olsen Twins are legal, no one wants them.

1)Overrated
2)No talent-no acting skills whatsoever.
3)Have done no work to deserve the level of success they have-they made "full house" just because they didn't CRY when they held them up, then they plaed the baby, who only had like 2 lines per episode.
3) Had 500 other people guide theuir"careers". Dualstar was founded and run by other people, but mary-kate and ashley are in the movies, so it's successful.
4)same with their clothing line. It was founded and is run by someone else. Once in a while they PICK OUT CLOTHING. THAT'S IT.
5)Always makes the same kind of movies with the same plot because they can't act.
6)People like them and they are successful only because of their "good-girl twin" image.
The Olsen Twins became billionaires for being twins.

Replaced by Lindsay Lohan and Hillary Duff in terms of jailbait.

Recently turned 18 (June 13th 2004), the two will attend NYU where they will presumably be fucked retarded without legal repercussion.
The Olsen Twins are 18 now. The wait is over! Why did we wait again?

The Olsen twins are the twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. As babies they were took to audition for 'Full House', and they got the role because "they were the only ones who didn't cry". When 'Full House' finished, they had a line of really bad movies and were merchandised to the brim, as they had a massive fan-base. Up until they were 18 they had a squeeky clean image. Then they started doing drugs (allegedly) and become anorexic (Mary-Kate at least). Now, they seem to have vanished off the face of the Earth. You don't see the anymore. They are both focusing on fashion now (fashion book, fashion lines etc) and Mary-Kate has had a few roles in the likes of 'Samantha Who?' and 'Weeds'.
