'''Mary-Kate Olsen''' and '''Ashley Fuller Olsen''' (born June 13, 1986), also known as the '''Olsen twins''', are American fashion designers and former actresses. [[Mary-Kate Olsen|Mary-Kate]] and [[Ashley Olsen|Ashley]] made their acting debut as infants playing [[Michelle Tanner]] on the television sitcom ''[[Full House]]'' (1987–1995). As they grew older, they began starring in other television shows, films, and media through their own production company, [[Dualstar]]. The twins became preteen icons, and some of the wealthiest women in the entertainment industry at a young age.
 
The Olsens stepped away from acting in the mid-2000s and entered the fashion design industry. They founded their own luxury fashion label in 2006, [[The Row (fashion label)|The Row]], based in [[New York City]]. They have won several awards from the [[Council of Fashion Designers of America]] (CFDA).
'''Mary-Kate Olsen''' and '''Ashley Fuller Olsen''' (both born [[June 13]] [[1986]]) are [[United States|American]] [[actor|actresses]], best known for playing the role of [[Michelle Tanner]] on the sitcom ''[[Full House]]''. They are fraternal [[twin]]s, as opposed to [[identical twins]], both of whom have appeared in [[television]] and films since infancy. Since then, they have attained international fame through numerous [[television program]]s, films, [[interview]]s, as well as commercial [[endorsement]]s. As a rule, they appear together, and have filmed movies worldwide, including in [[London]], [[Sydney]], [[Paris]], [[New York City]], [[Rome]], [[Mexico]], and [[the Bahamas]].
 
===EarlyLives life=and career==
===Childhood and acting career===
Born in [[Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, California|Sherman Oaks, California]] to David Olsen (b. [[1953]]) and Jarnette (Jarnie) Fuller (b. [[1954]]), Mary-Kate and Ashley Fuller Olsen started their acting careers on the [[television series]] ''[[Full House]]'' in 1987. They were hired at the age of six months, and filming began when they were nine months old. The show was widely popular during the late [[1980s]] and early [[1990s]], and both sisters played the same character, [[Michelle Tanner]], taking turns during the tapings to do so, in order to comply with strict child labor laws regarding child actors. For the first year, Ashley would cry every time she was brought on set to do a scene, so Mary-Kate had more screen time in the first season. Because the producers did not want viewers to know that Michelle was played by twins, the sisters were originally credited as "Mary Kate Ashley Olsen", but in the last season and most of season one, they were credited as separate people. During the eight year run, Mary-Kate and Ashley made several straight-to-video movies, in addition to Full House, such as ''[[To Grandmother's House We Go]]'' (1992).

In 1987, at the age of six months, the twins were cast in the role of [[Michelle Tanner]] on the [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] [[sitcom]] ''[[Full House]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Smith |first=Bea |date=2022-11-09 |title=Did John Stamos Want Mary-Kate And Ashley Olsen Gone From Full House? |url=https://www.thethings.com/did-john-stamos-want-mary-kate-and-ashley-gone-from-full-house/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=TheThings |language=en}}</ref> They began filming at nine months old. In order to comply with [[child labor]] laws that set strict limits on how long a child actor may work, the sisters took turns playing the role. The Olsens continued to portray Michelle throughout the show's run, which concluded in 1995.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Malach |first=Hannah |date=2023-11-06 |title=Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Through the Years: How the Twins Evolved From Sitcom Stars to Style Icons |url=https://wwd.com/feature/ashley-olsen-mary-kate-olsen-twins-style-1235770379/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=WWD |language=en-US}}</ref>
===Career===
Shortly after the end of ''Full House'', they returned to the entertainment industry, riding the momentum of their role on ''Full House'' by heavily merchandising their image. They established a company called [[Dualstar]] in 1993 and their brand is sold in more than 3,000 stores in America and over 5,300 stores worldwide [http://www.dualstarentertainmentgroup.com/pdf/dualstar_press_kit.pdf]. Taking the world of [[preteen]]s by storm, their names have become a very profitable industry, with their likeness seen in clothes, fragrances, magazines, movies and posters. There were also Mary-Kate and Ashley fashion dolls made by [[Mattel]] from 2000-2005.
 
In 1992, Mary-Kate and Ashley shared the role of Michelle Tanner when they guest-starred on the ''Full House'' crossover episode of ''[[Hangin' with Mr. Cooper]]''.<ref>{{Citation |last=Zwick |first=Joel |title=Hangin' with Michelle |date=1992-09-29 |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0595853/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |series=Hangin' with Mr. Cooper |others=Mark Curry, Dawnn Lewis, Holly Robinson Peete}}</ref> While starring on ''Full House'', the Olsens also began appearing (as separate characters) in films for [[direct-to-video|video]] and television. The first such film, ''[[To Grandmother's House We Go]]'', debuted in 1992 and featured cameos from several other ''Full House'' actors.<ref>{{Citation |title=To Grandmother's House We Go (TV Movie 1992) - Trivia - IMDb |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105606/trivia/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |language=en-US}}</ref> In 1993, the Olsens established the company [[Dualstar]], which would produce the twins' subsequent films and videos, including 1993's ''[[Double, Double, Toil and Trouble]]'' and 1994's ''[[How the West Was Fun]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Dualstar Movies List |url=https://www.ranker.com/list/dualstar-films-and-movies/reference |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=Ranker |language=en}}</ref> On May 9, 1993, Mary-Kate and Ashley performed alongside [[Shelley Duvall]] and [[Daryl Hannah]] in a benefit concert to raise money for the Rainforest.<ref>{{cite news |work=The Los Angeles Times |___location=Los Angeles, California |date=April 7, 1993 |first=Shauna |last=Snow |title=Rain Forest Concert |url=https://archive.org/details/rain-forest-concert}}</ref> A series of musical mystery videos called ''[[The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley]]'' premiered in 1994 and continued through 1997.<ref>{{Citation |last=Kruzan |first=Michael |title=The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley: The Case of Thorn Mansion |date=1994-09-13 |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0282340/ |type=Short, Comedy, Family |access-date=2023-11-12 |others=Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen, Elizabeth Olsen |publisher=Dualstar Productions}}</ref><ref>{{Citation |last=Kruzan |first=Michael |title=The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley: The Case of the United States Navy Adventure |date=1997-11-01 |url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0283856/ |type=Short |access-date=2023-11-12 |others=Mary-Kate Olsen, Ashley Olsen |publisher=Dualstar Productions}}</ref>
Mary-Kate and Ashley were popular figures in the preteen market during the late '90s and early [[2000s]], following along the lines of such [[Hollywood]] teen stars as [[Judy Garland]], [[Shirley Temple]] and [[Mickey Rooney]] among others. They were ranked at number three on the [[VH1]] program ''100 Greatest Child Stars''.
 
In 1995, following the end of ''Full House'', the Olsens made their feature film debut in ''[[It Takes Two (1995 film)|It Takes Two]]'', co-starring [[Steve Guttenberg]] and [[Kirstie Alley]]. That same year, they introduced a second video series, ''[[You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's...]]'', which continued to release new entries until 2000.
They starred in the video series' ''[[The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley]]'', "You're invited too", and the [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] show ''[[Two of a Kind (TV series)|Two of a Kind]]'', as well as ABC Family's ''[[So Little Time]]''. ''So Little Time'' was panned by critics and disappointed fans; the show is basically a [[Single-camera setup|single camera]] comedy show with a laugh track. They also have their own book series.
 
The following year, the Olsens appeared in an episode of ''[[All My Children]]''.<ref>{{cite web |author=Fanpop, Inc. |url=http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/mary-kate-and-ashley-olsen/images/20279438/title/1998-all-children-screencap |title=1998 - All My Children - Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen Image (20279438) - Fanpop fanclubs |publisher=Fanpop.com |access-date=October 26, 2013 |archive-date=September 5, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150905175626/http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/mary-kate-and-ashley-olsen/images/20279438/title/1998-all-children-screencap |url-status=live }}</ref> In 1997, they appeared once again as guest stars in an episode of ''[[Sister, Sister (TV series)|Sister Sister]]''. Also, in 1998, the twins returned to series television with another ABC sitcom, ''[[Two of a Kind (U.S. TV series)|Two of a Kind]]'', co-starring [[Christopher Sieber]] as their characters' widowed father. The series lasted only one season but aired in reruns on cable for several years afterward. 1998 also saw the release of ''[[Billboard Dad]]'', the first of a new string of direct-to-video films starring the Olsens. The final such film, ''[[The Challenge (2003 film)|The Challenge]]'', debuted in 2003.[[File:Olsen twins hollywood star.jpg|thumb|Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's Hollywood Star|left]]In 2000, the Olsens appeared in an episode of ''[[7th Heaven (TV series)|7th Heaven]]'' as bad girls Sue and Carol Murphy.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAMAtPQQGp0 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140301164039/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAMAtPQQGp0| archive-date=2014-03-01 | url-status=dead|title=7th Heaven with the Olsen Twins - Part 1 |publisher=YouTube |date=January 11, 2007 |access-date=October 26, 2013}}</ref> The following year, the sisters starred in two new series: ''[[So Little Time]]'', a live-action sitcom on Fox Family (later [[Freeform (TV channel)|ABC Family]]); and ''[[Mary-Kate and Ashley in Action!]]'', an animated series airing Saturday mornings on ABC. Both shows were canceled after one season, although Mary-Kate received a [[Daytime Emmy Award]] nomination for her performance on ''So Little Time''.
In 2004 Mary-Kate and Ashley announced that they would be attending college after graduating high school. Most child and teenage actors usually choose to pursue acting full time after graduating from high school, with few (such as [[Brooke Shields]], [[Jodie Foster]], [[Julia Stiles]], and [[Natalie Portman]]) choosing to further their education. They both studied at [[New York University]] at the [[Gallatin School of Individualized Study]] {{fact}} until Mary-Kate took a break from life at New York University, where she majored in photography. In 2005 she moved back to California. She decided to stay on the West Coast and pursue more individualized work with their company, Dualstar. Ashley, still in New York, remains in close contact with her sister.
 
In early 2004, the Olsens had a cameo voice role in an episode of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' as the readers of Marge's book-on-tape, ''The Harpooned Heart''.<ref>{{cite web |author=Caroline Stanley |url=http://flavorwire.com/107040/can-a-simpsons-cameo-change-your-public-image/comment-page-1 |title=Can a Simpsons Cameo Change Your Public Image? – Flavorwire |publisher=Flavorwire.com |date=July 22, 2010 |access-date=October 26, 2013 |archive-date=January 10, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160110204136/http://flavorwire.com/107040/can-a-simpsons-cameo-change-your-public-image/comment-page-1 |url-status=live }}</ref> That same year, the twins starred in a second feature film, ''[[New York Minute (film)|New York Minute]]''. It would be their last film together, as well as Ashley's last acting role. Mary-Kate has continued to appear in film and television.
They have also been on the [[Forbes]].com The Celebrity 100 list since 2002.
Mary-Kate and Ashley had a fan club until 2000, "Mary-Kate & Ashley's Fun Club", where fans would pay to receive Mary-Kate and Ashley collectibles and photos. Each subscription included an issue of ''Our Funzine'', Mary-Kate and Ashley's fan club magazine, exclusively available through the club, and a collectibles catalog, where one could purchase T-shirts, posters, baseball caps, key rings, school folders, postcards, and various other items. Subscribers would also receive "surprise gifts" (usually key rings, book excerpts, or back issues of the ''Funzine''), lyric sheets to Mary-Kate and Ashley's songs, a school folder, a membership card, a full-sized poster, two black and white photos (one of each girl), and a color photo with reprint autographs. The club was advertised at the beginning of Mary-Kate and Ashley movies until 1998.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mary-kateandashleyimages.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=170 |title=Fun Club Stuff |publisher=mary-kateandashleyimages.com |access-date=October 26, 2013 |archive-date=October 29, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029211336/http://www.mary-kateandashleyimages.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=170 |url-status=live }}</ref>
Mary-Kate and Ashley were popular figures in the [[preteen]] market during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Their names and likenesses extended not only to movies and videos, but to clothes, shoes, purses, hats, books, CDs and cassette tapes, fragrances and makeup, magazines, video and board games, dolls, posters, calendars, and even telephones and CD players—with a market share made up mostly of the [[tween (demographic)|tween demographic]]. [[Mattel]] produced various sets of Mary-Kate and Ashley fashion dolls from 2000 to 2005, along with separate outfits and accessory packs.

The sisters became co-presidents of Dualstar on their 18th birthday in 2004. Upon taking control of the company, Mary-Kate and Ashley made moves to secure the future of the company by releasing products that appealed to the teen market, including home decoration and fragrances.<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.usatoday.com/money/media/2005-05-06-olsens-twins-business_x.htm | work=USA Today | title=Olsens face growing pains | first1=Jim | last1=Hopkins | date=May 6, 2005 | access-date=September 4, 2017 | archive-date=June 27, 2012 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120627073910/http://www.usatoday.com/money/media/2005-05-06-olsens-twins-business_x.htm | url-status=live }}</ref> The Dualstar brand has been sold in more than 3,000 stores in the United States and over 5,300 stores worldwide.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dualstarentertainmentgroup.com/pdf/dualstar_press_kit.pdf |title=Dualstar Press Kit |access-date=October 26, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080530123017/http://www.dualstarentertainmentgroup.com/pdf/dualstar_press_kit.pdf |archive-date=May 30, 2008 }}</ref> The Olsens have appeared on the ''[[Forbes]]'' "Celebrity 100" list since 2002;{{update inline|date=April 2021}} in 2007, ''Forbes'' ranked them (collectively) as the eleventh-richest women in entertainment, with an estimated net worth of US$100 million.<ref>Goldman, Lea and Kiri Blakeley.

The sisters retired from acting in 2012, expressing interest in the fashion industry.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2012-03-07 |title=Olsen twins: We won't act again |url=https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/movies/olsen-twins-we-wont-act-again-20120307-1ujgn.html |access-date=2025-01-29 |website=The Sydney Morning Herald |language=en}}</ref> When ''[[Fuller House (TV series)|Fuller House]]'', a spin-off of the original sitcom ''Full House,'' was announced, the sisters were the only members of the original cast who didn't return to play their character, Michelle. They received harsh criticism due to their absence, but it was later revealed that [[John Stamos]], who played Michelle's uncle, [[Jesse Katsopolis]], was to blame for their refusal to return, when he reached out to their agent instead of directly to the sisters. Mary-Kate considered joining again, and offered to persuade Ashley to join as well, but Stamos, who also produced ''Fuller House,'' "didn't seize the opportunity and everything fell apart." The sisters' new fashion career was also a factor in their failure to return, as they had moved away from acting and toward fashion designing.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Dumaraog |first=Ana |date=2021-05-22 |title=Fuller House: Why John Stamos Is To Blame For The Olsen Twins' Absence |url=https://screenrant.com/fuller-house-john-stamos-mary-kate-ashely-missing-fault/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=ScreenRant |language=en}}</ref> It was speculated that the twins' younger sister, actress [[Elizabeth Olsen]], would take up the role as Michelle, but the team that produced ''Fuller House'' wasn't open to the idea, and Michelle never made it onto the show.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Dumaraog |first=Ana |date=2021-04-27 |title=Why Fuller House Never Cast Elizabeth Olsen As Michelle |url=https://screenrant.com/fuller-house-michelle-elizabeth-olsen-twins-not-recast/ |access-date=2023-11-12 |website=ScreenRant |language=en}}</ref>
===Other work===
As the sisters grow older and mature in their style, there has been greater interest in their fashion choices. The ''[[New York Times]]'' declared Mary-Kate a [[fashion icon]] for pioneering her signature (and now popular among celebrities and fans alike) "homeless" look [http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,16226,00.html]. The style, sometimes referred to as "[[chic (style)|ashcan]]" or "[[Boho-chic]]" [http://www.southend.wayne.edu/modules/news/article.php?storyid=1242], and similar to that of [[Boho-chic|Bohemian chic]] popularised in [[Britain]] by [[Kate Moss]] and [[Sienna Miller]], consists of oversized sunglasses, boots, loose sweaters, and flowing skirts [http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30C1EF935590C758CDDAA0894DD404482].
 
===Fashion career===
Their fashion choices, however, haven't been without controversy. Ashley Olsen was inlcuded on [[People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals|PETA's]] 2006 Worst Dressed list for wearing fur.

In 2004 they made news by signing a pledge to allow all the workers that sew their line of clothing in [[Bangladesh]] full maternity leave. The [[National Labor Committee]], which organized the pledge, later praised the twins for their commitment to worker rights. The director of the organization, [[Charles Kernaghan]], is quoted as saying, "The Olsen twins have done the right thing. Now it is up to Wal-Mart to either support Mary-Kate and Ashley’s commitment to [[women’s rights]], or tragically to shut them down."

==Discography==
In 2004, Mary-Kate checked into rehab for six weeks because she was suffering from the eating disorder [[anorexia nervosa]]. It was rumoured that there was also a drug problem, but the Olsens' publicist said, "Mary-Kate was not admitted for drugs. Period."[http://neovox.cortland.edu/archives/2004/10/mary_olsen_drug.html] Mary-Kate put on about five to seven pounds immediately after her stint in rehab and pictures had shown that she may have gained more weight.

Mary-Kate in 2005 ended her romance with Greek shipping heir [[Stavros Niarchos III]]; Niarchos then began dating hotel heiress and socialite [[Paris Hilton]]. Mary-Kate said that the breakup was one of the main factors in her leave of absence from [[New York University]]. "I miss him and I love him," Mary-Kate said, "It's a hurtful and a painful subject." When asked if there was a specific reason for her leaving NYU, she replied, "I think we can all guess." [http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,17940,00.html].

Mary-Kate is not the only twin receiving personal public attention. Ashley filed a $40 million lawsuit against tabloid magazine ''[[National Enquirer]]'' for printing a headline reading "Ashley Olsen Caught In Drug Scandal," with a story accompanied by an unflattering photo of Ashley with her eyes half-closed. The lawsuit stated that the photo was clearly used to create a misimpression that Olsen was drugged. Ashley completely denies the accusations and said that she has not and does not use or sell illegal drugs. The suit consisted of $20 million in libel damages and $20 million in false light invasion of privacy damages. Per her suit, Ashley Olsen and her lawyers believe that ''"freedom of the press is a valuable right, but it is not a license for gossipy tabloids to tar and feather innocent celebrities and destroy their reputations and businesses for the rag's profits."'' [http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,15940,00.html].
