Who is The Most Famous Twins in Entertainment: Mary-Kate And Ashley Olsen
Ranked #4,033 in Entertainment, #44,433 overall
The Olsen Twins
If you grew up in the 90's then you most likely know who Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are. They played the character of lovable Michelle Tanner on the hit TV show Full House. They grew up to star in more TV shows, movies, videos, and even own their own empire, Duelstar Entertainment. They now own their own clothing line and perfume and are enjoying their time as young adult millionaires. Up until recently, the twins have never been apart in their profession. Mary-kate Olsen is focusing on her acting career and is currently in the movie "Beastly". Ashley is focusing on their fashion line. Even though the twins are a lot different now, I think many people who knew them growing up have a soft spot for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

How did the Olsen twins get their start?
Six months after the Olsen twins were born in 1986, their parents took them to the Full House audition. They were the only babies that didn't cry, so they were hired! I wish i could have started a career that easy!At 6 months old, they started their career acting for Full House. This was a good career move for the babies because a few years later they were releasing straight-to-video movies and everyone loved the little girl from Full House.

How To Tell Them Apart
Many of these things listed below were used to tell them apart when they were younger. Some can still be used now to tell them apart.
- Mary-Kate is left-handed. Ashley is right-handed.
- Ashley is a little bit taller than Mary-Kate.
- Ashely has a freckle above her lip (although I've never seen it in pictures)
- Mary-Kate is into sports and Ashley is more of a girly-girl. Mary-Kate usually dressed in sporty clothes, and Ashley dressed in skirts and dresses.
- Mary-Kate usually smiles with her mouth closed.
- Ashley smiles showing her teeth.
Recently, they try hard to look different from each other. Now that they are older, they color their hair and have changed a lot. Here are some ways to tell them apart now.
- Mary-Kate usually has brunette hair now and Ashley has kept her blonde hair.
- Their lips are much different now. Mary-Kate has thinner lips and Ashley's are fuller. It is easy to tell in a picture (like the one above).
- Mary-Kate is a little thinner than Ashley.
Every Celeb Has Their Problems
Although the Olsen twins are famous, rich, and pretty - they have their share of problems just like any celebrity.A few years ago, Mary-Kate had an eating disorder and went to rehab for it when she was 18. She is doing much better now and has continued to act.
They are disliked by animal activists because of they wear fur. (Fur IS wrong!) They have been labeled "The Trollsen Twins" by the Non-profit animal rights organization PETA.

- I watched Full House too, and saw them grow from young girls into young teens. I thought that they were so pretty, and was sure that they would develop into beautiful young ladies, but it seems from the time they went to college they have not really done so. Mary Kate especially is so skinny now, it's a real shame.
