[oceanharlot]

hehe... my gay guy friend said he'd turn straight for one chance of a date with MK olsen. I dont think ashley is as pretty... just more classic.

I think they are both beautiful girls. It's sad that Mary-Kate is going through this, but I wish her all the best!

I have heard girls in the past talk about Ashley being the "prettier one" of the two. I hope that isn't part of what brought this on. very sad

u know wut, that could have bought that on.....
I have a twin sis and I do think shes prettier then me although we look so much alike.... it does make me a lil insecure sometimes [/b][/quote]
I've read that MK is definitely the more competitive one...and the more outgoing one, where Ashley is seen as the sophisticate.

There was also note about how the publicity is uncalled for...but you know what, their reps made comment of it - so it is pretty much fair game right now. I know, I know, it's unfortunate...but perhaps it's good that people know she's getting help. And it's actually her family that intervened... I read in People that she's been suffereing from this for about two years now. Here's an exerp:

<It isn't the first time her family has tried to aid Mary-Kate, whom close pals call MK. According to one source, after the actress got into a minor car accident about a year and a half ago her father tried motivating her to eat by telling her she couldn't get her black Range Rover back until she gained some weight. Another source says the family hired someone to monitor Mary-Kate's eating. "Sometimes she was taken out of school to eat," says a former classmate at Campbell Hall high school. "During the last year she had an adult eating with her most of the time. Everyone knew how skinny she was.">

It IS tough, and it's so very unfortunate how competitive and cut-throught the entertainment industry is about thinness.

Wow. She's just like every other teenager. She certainly does have her problems though. I don't think others should expect alot from her. She's just a young girl still.

 

[AniexDaffodil]

a girlfriend of mine saw her doing cocaine in a bathroom at a club in LA
that will also help shed A LOT of pounds

poor thing

 

[*DrAma*]

was she really?

MARY-KATE OLSEN IN REHAB: BATTLING DRUGS AND ANOREXIA


THE NEW ISSUE OF STAR, ON SALE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 30
EXCLUSIVE DETAILS OF MARY-KATE'S BATTLE WITH DRUGS PLUS PHOTOS IN THE NEW ISSUE OF STAR, ON SALE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 30

(New York, June 29, 2004) - Star magazine reveals that Mary-Kate Olsen- who along with twin sister Ashley, form a multi-millionaire power duo-is being treated for a cocaine addiction in an exclusive facility in Utah.

Mary-Kate is currently residing at the exclusive Cirque Lodge in Utah, which is known for its scenic mountain views and a new-age, intensive-therapy approach to treating drug addiction. She was checked in by her father Dave Olsen on June 11, and spent her 18th birthday there by herself on June 13.

The recommended 30-day program costs $29,850, and patients are free to come and go as they please, if their counselor agrees to give them a pass.

The facility's website says it treats eating disorders in addition to drug and alcohol addictions. As it's been widely reported, Mary-Kate is also battling anorexia.

Mary-Kate is also battling anorexia ... yes she is thanks to the pic it's a certainty, it's pity

 

[cocomonkey]

all publicity is good publicity but i really hope this wasn't done just for publicity

 

[impossibleprincess]

didn't someone on this site actually say a while back that she knew their group and knew they were doing drugs?! I think it was in the other MKA thread.

But, magazines like that speculate a hell of a lot.

 

[brian]

yikes.
but actually... if this is true, i am not surprised at all.

I think someone said that they smoked weed. It's non-addictive so I doubt someone would be sent to rehab over it.

 

[impossibleprincess]

I know it sounds awful but i really wouldn't be suprised if it was coke-i mean in celeb circles its uncommon not to do it.

 

[plasticine20]

I wouldn't be surprised about the cocaine thing.

But I wish the press would respect her privacy. (press... respect? ha that'll never happen)

 

[CelineChic]

She did seem a bit dazed and confused on Oprah when they were on.

She never finished any of her sentences. Ashley would have to do it.

 

[Sephora_Socialite]

Aww how sad...and to think that they would be any different...sad that MK has to endure the press...

So many celebs do it..just people dont really know about it...but thats why its not too shocking for me...I just thought she'd be diff from the other child stars here. Hopefully she doesnt get washed up like them.

I went to a friends party in Montreal and ben Afleck was there. He was sniffing nose candy every 5 minutes! I was shocked because I had the pre-concieved idea that he was one of those american good boys.

It grossed me out too. Doing drugs is gross

 

[Misako]

I hope that she DOESN'T use cocaine - I have no issues with pot, as it's not addictive, and after all, I'm in a university, and needless to say, pot isn't exactly a rarity on college campuses. Personally I'm not a fan of drugs - my deviances go towards drinking only, but I know people that've used a variety of drugs from pot, to cocaine, mushrooms...

However, it's also not completely uncommon to hear of people doing cocaine as well.

Still, hopefully this isn't true, but I ultimately won't be surprised if it turns out to be true - it'd be a little sad, though, because I expected her to be the kind to turn down such "harder" drugs. Ah well. Hopefully it isn't true and she won't perhaps turn to something like heroin...

They were ok on Oprah, actually. They both seem really shy in interviews, so I think that was part of it - I have it downloaded on my computer and I just re-watched it today.
