>> Mary-Kate cocaine rumors proven to be false

December 13th, 2004 - General


Bonnie Fuller, American Media's editorial director, source of the false Mary-Kate cocaine rumors.

Interesting post over at AmysRobot.com. Guess who was wrong about MK being addicted to cocaine?

Sfexaminer.com - Double trouble
Star and Enquirer magazines have their tails between their legs over allegations that Mary-Kate Olsen, half of the Olsen twins' media empire, was treated for cocaine addiction when she checked into Cirque Lodge, a Utah rehabilitation center. Seems the waif-like starlet wasn't taking time to smell the snow bouquet after all. (although American Media, owner of both magazines, stands behind the claim to the bitter end). Bonnie Fuller, American Media's editorial director, has the last laugh in this one, cashing in on a $4.5 million, three-year contract she signed to leave US Weekly whether the story pans out of not.

And here's a link to a huge article that rips this maven of mendacity apart:

Gawker.com - Not suprisingly, after Bonnie demands a cruel cover on a celebrity she then ducks the publicist's calls and makes her flacks take the abuse. "She promises this kinder gentler star when she wines and dines publicists but she doesn't have to stand on the red carpet and take their abuse after she prints another unflattering article," says one former Star hack. (Some celebs, who are FOBs (friends of Bonnie's) such as Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lopez and Anna Nicole Smith are the subject of only kind stories, however. In fact, when her good pal Kimora Lee Simmons was arrested for DUI, Bonnie's caption on her mug shot read "Kimora's CUTE mug shot." Yeah, drunk driving -- it's so sexy!)

That lady is scum.

  • It’s funny how some people think their opinions, backed up by pretty much nothing, counts as “fact”. No one has been given or produced conclusive proof of anything yet just because Mary-Kate entered a treatment facility which just HAPPENED to also offer substance abuse programs, people automatically assume it’s the drugs. Why? Because it sounds more sensational, sells more idiotic papers that contribute to the dumbing down of America (and perhaps the rest of the planet) and it makes people feel better about their own dismal state of affairs they call lives.

    Someone who makes money or gains anything off of destroying others is not a commendable human being. They are sleazy and aren’t deserving of an iota of respect from people who have a common sense of DECENCY. The sad thing is people actually buy this garbage and line the pockets of these people because they feel they have the right to rip open someone’s private life for their own personal entertainment just because they’re famous. People swoop down on them like vultures anytime they show even an inkling of human weakness. They somehow aren’t human unless they’re dragged under the wheels of an increasingly impersonal public.

    What reasoning is there in scandalizing someone when there is no proof that person did anything wrong? Are people somehow entitled to make other people miserable?

    Even if she was there for a cocaine addiction, why is it a hot topic for people? LOTS of people are cocaine addicts. Is someone with Mary-Kate’s status less deserving of compassion because of that status? Is an addiction or any ailment a matter to be scorned over?

    People need to stop mistaking gossip for actual reporting.

  • I myself do not believe in judging if i dont not now the truth. but in a lot of pictures i see if you look at mary kates eyes and how intense and wide they are compared to ashleys its very crazy. And they do say she was checked in for an eating disorder but do you really thing they would say she is getting checked in for coke? come on think about it and add up the facts. But i could really care less if she is i will always be a fan, and like some people said shes young and famous who has money to afford it but hey to each their own

  • It’s kind of ridiculous to assume we know anything going on in their lives. She might be using cocaine, she might not. Maybe instead of debating whether or not, or what reason she would have for snorting lines, you should deal with your own problems.. lets say.. celebrity addiction! In response to your question “kate c” YES anorexics see the real weight on the scale, they have a distorted vision of themselves not the numbers laid out before them.

  • I do believe that Mary-Kate is doing cocaine and she is way way too skinny and just because she is famous and alot of people are looking at her doesn’t mean she has to starve herself now people think that she is sickening and people think that she looked way better when she was younger.

  • The doctor she is seeing is an “addiction psychiatrist.” she’s obviously addicted to something.

  • Nothing wrong with charlie anyway….
    Everyone does coke…especially celebtities.
    I use in moderation, doesn’t make me a bad person or an addict or stupid….
    People who can’t accept drug use in the 21st century arn’t worth talking to….

  • Marykate Olsen is NOT on Cocaine…Why would someone with a life like that do cocaine?She has so many fans,and people who watch her,why would she even try doing cocaine when theres a good chance she could get cought?And,They ALWAYS say the Olsen Twins are very smart…I seriouly doubt Marykates on Drugs…EVERY Celeb gets rumours…We act like this crap is new…It’s not!!They have never made rumours about the Olsen Twins Until her Eating Disorder was known by everyone,Thats when the Drug stuff came along?If theres news about a celeb,Of course theres going to be some dumb ass people turning things around,Making it sound like something else…Marykate is NOT on Drugs!!!!!Just becuase shes got an eating disorder does NOT mean shes on drugs,and its not surprising to see her on a eating disorder…Shes a Normal Teenage girl,and Eating Disorders ARE normal these days to teenage girls….So,Thats all it is…Eating Disorder and thats it…If she was on drugs,Im sure she would have gotten cought by now…TRUE EVIDENCE is what im saying…Marykate should not have these stupid rumours going around,thats not cool to do too someone,rather your a normal person,or a celeb.EVERY celeb gets rumours,but a lot of people seem to still get confused rather these are true or not…ITS NOT true until they have actually evidence…On Camera,Olsen Twins saying it them selves,Other than that…ITs NOT true!!!!!

  • When I was in recovery for my eating disorder I was also there because I had developed a bad habit with methamphetamines. it’s obvious that mary-kate is underweight. whether or not this has anything to do with drugs is beside the point. MK has a serious DESEASE that kills HUNDREDS of women and men every year! whether or not she was doing coke in order to lose weight doesn’t matter, the real issue here is MKs eating disorder.

  • Man I hate people who hide behind someone elses name. Pretending to be an Olsen is so beyond lame.
    Maybe you won’t need to do this once you get out of grade school - one can hope anyway.

  • yo robert DO you know her? I very much doubt that but i am not saying that she Was checked in for cocaine

  • That woman, Bonnie Fuller, really sucks. Using false and hurting
    rumours just to earn the money is so low. If you`re reading this
    Mary-Kate (she`s probably not), you should know that she has big
    problems with herself, and you should just refuse those rumours by
    interviews and stuff. Then she can sitt there, all alone, and think
    about how cruel she`s been to you (and probably many other celebs)

  • Mary-Kate cocaine rumors proven to be false,

    Whats the evidence that she hasn’t been using drugs those days???
    I wouldn’t be suprised if she admits that she used it…
    I mean NEARLY all child stars have been treated for a drug addiction in rehab centers.

    I have an objective view about this rumor, but most of you don’t have an objective view. Because you are fans you’ll always support her even if she would admit she has done something like that you wouldn’t believe it.

    P.S I’m not a Olsen-fan nor a Olsen-hater i just like to give my opinion about rumors..

  • anyway, anorexia is an addiction. it’s common knowledge that programs that help other addictions are just as successful in treating anorexia.

  • my brother�s buddy works right next to NYU and he saw marykate go into
    an aparament building numerous times where a dealer lives.maybe its
    coincidence

    I would have say yes, it’s a coincidence. You can probably find a dealer in almost every build in NYC. I have never believe MK to do drugs and I never will,

    Anonymous — December 14, 2004 @ 10:36 pm
  • Why don’t you report it to the police and catch her buying the drugs? You’d be a hero to the Olsen haters.

    Wouldn’t you think the paparazzi would of noticed that? How much would it be worth to the tabloids to get THAT story?

  • That’s what you call circumstantial evidence. It’s not proof is it? Would you like to be convicted of a crime purely on circumstantial evidence? If you went to a hospital for an eating disorder that specialized in cancer treatment and people said you MUST have cancer is that true or fair? No. If you went into a bathroom that happened to have a lot of people smoking weed, would it be fair to accuse YOU of smoking weed just because you happen to leave from there? That’s circumstantial evidence.

    And let’s remember that while a false rumor like this can be VERY damaging to anyone, it is especially damaging to a celebrity. No one should EVER spread a rumor like this without proof.

    It’s pretty obvious since no reputable publication confirmed this false story, and even the tabloids dropped it, that this rumor never was true and they knew it. Yet many creeps on the internet and in the media still spew our this lie like it is true. That’s terrible. I wouldn’t want that to happen to me or anyone else.

    If one of the counselors at Cirque Lodge publicly stated she was there for a drug addiction then that would be proof. If MK publicly stated that she was an addict then that would be proof. But that has not happened.

    It is unethical for any news publication to state as fact something that is not a fact, only rumor. Can we agree on that? They never said it was “possible” she was there for drug addiction, they said it was an absolute FACT that she was. That. Is. Wrong. Period.

    why was she at a rehab place that only treats drug and alcohol addictions then? surely it would have been better to go for one that treats anorexia??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • She was not there for cocaine addiction.
    She was having another problem, not related to drugs.
    I know her, it was not cocaine.
