Oooooooooooooooooooooooo

Tonight is the night
when dead leaves fly
like witches on switches
across the sky.
When elf and sprite flit
through the night on a moony sheen.

Tonight is the night
when leaves make a sound
like a gnome in his home under the ground.
When spooks and trolls
creep out of the holes,
all mossy and green.

Tonight is the night
when pumpkins stare
through sheaves and leaves everywhere.
When ghoul and ghost and goblin
host dance round their Queen. - TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT

Happy Halloween from Olsen Twins News!

Mary-Kate's TV Dad Speaks Out

Insider.tv.yahoo.com - MARY-KATE OLSEN's wisecracking TV dad, BOB SAGET, fills us in on his "Full House" daughter on tonight's edition of "The Insider." We caught up with Bob on the set of a pilot for an upcoming Showtime production based on comic legend RICHARD PRYOR's life.

"She's actually doing really well," Bob tells our own PAT O'BRIEN. "Yeah, that's the truth."

The always-amusing Bob jokes that he still keeps in touch with his former primetime family. "I love my TV kids. I text-message all the kids on the show and punish them. I say, 'If you don't shape up, you won't get another text message for months!" more...

Pagnotta secretly taped! Reveals to US reporters the real reason MK went back to L.A!


MK before               MK after
Pagnotta: "...You guys at US are real idiots you know that? Relapse? False! Dropping out? Not true! Your all a bunch of morons, as usual!  Don't you guys get tired of being wrong all the time? Ok here's the real reason, which you guys would of never figured out because your too stupid. She went back to L.A. to have a BRS (beauty reduction surgery.) She's going for the Ken Baker look but she's not sure if she wants to go that ugly. Hey, it's the latest thing and MK likes to stay current with the latest trends ok? I believe it's called GoUgg. Ash is also scheduled for BRS surgery next week and said, and I quote, 'If Ken Baker can stand being so ugly, then so can I.' There, are you happy?! Now get outta my face!..." <sound of phone slamming>

Reuters.com - "Reports or suggestions that Mary-Kate is leaving NYU are totally false. She is in Los Angeles primarily on business for about a week and then she is returning to New York and to school," her publicist Michael Pagnotta said.

"She's working very hard at staying well under intense scrutiny. It's not true that she's had a relapse.

"For people to say she is dropping out after all she has been through is incredibly hurtful and flat out wrong, Does Mary-Kate undergo after-care treatment? She absolutely does. She's had good periods and she's had bad periods and she will continue to, probably for the rest of her life," Pagnotta said.

John Harlow, Los Angeles

Timesonline.co.uk - A YEAR after her husband Arnold Schwarzenegger was elected governor of California, Maria Shriver has flexed her own political muscles by calling for the state?s history museum to be turned into a celebration of women ranging from union organizers to Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Last May Shriver took over the museum?s first floor to help organise an exhibition called Remarkable Women, with pictures and film of 200 Californian women from Dolores Huerta, a farmworkers? union organiser arrested 22 times during the 1960s, to Elizabeth Taylor and the teenage actresses Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. The exhibition also includes the dress worn by Shriver at her husband?s inauguration...more...

Marketers Are Caught Tween Rock, Hard Place

Story.news.yahoo.com - LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Just when marketers think they have the elusive tween girl audience figured out, those beguiling young consumers just up and change their fickle minds, leaving studio executives scratching their heads.

New Line is definitely not the first studio to tread the perilous waters of preteen angst and sputter in the process. MGM had little luck releasing "Sleepover" this year, while 20th Century Fox recently stumbled with "First Daughter" and Warners couldn't get out of the gate with the Olsen twins' "New York Minute."

MK&A on McDonalds tv show in Germany?

Video clip - Olsen-media.de/videos/misc/

Hey, I could be wrong, I don't know German, but that suuure looks a lot like the golden arches to me. They're probably on location in Hamburg(er).

Update: Daniela explains all...

"Hi Michael! I am from austria, europe, and I can tell you what they say in this video in german with the mc-donalds logo as german is my mother language: in this mc donald chart show they have a rather short 30-second report about mary-kate and ashley, saying that some person/company printed a t-shirt "saving mary-kate" and that the girls were not happy with that and that they want to sue them for this. unfortunately there is not much about the olsens on austrian/german tv stations! bye! Daniela, 23, from Austria"

Reporter makes MK&A cry

Girlslife.com -  - A publicist for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen is on the other end of my phone, and she is not happy. "How could you?" she shrieks, "How could you make Mary-Kate and Ashley cry?" Not having even interviewed Mary-Kate and Ashley yet, I am fairly sure I have done nothing to America's favorite cutesome twosome to merit any kind of waterworks. "Someone called them yesterday and started asking them questions no one is supposed to ask, and they got so upset, they cried!" I explain as politely and apologetically as I can that I have never spoken to the Olsen twins and there has been some confusion. She calms down long enough to figure out the mix up and starts to go off on the real culprit, a rival reporter....more

Some years back, before the onslaught of spinoff titles and before Dan Brewster, YM was the queen of the hop, as they might have said in those days, contending with Seventeen for the title of America's most-read teen magazine.

Yesterday, YM was killed so that one of those upstarts, Cond?Nast's Teen Vogue, could become stronger in the great squabble for ad pages and readers between Cond?Nast and Hearst, which owns Seventeen and Cosmo Girl. ...more

Moby, a student of the Olsen's

Nydailynews.com - No less an authority on popular culture than Moby took a moment Monday night at the "Now Art Now" 2004 Whitney Gala to share his ruminations on newly minted New York University students Mary-Kate and Ashley.

 "It's the combination of bizarre adolescent success combined with the fact that they don't seem dumb. Almost every other celebrity under the age of 23 seems like a half-wit."

Yesterday, the twins' publicist, Michael Pagnotta, offered this response:

"That's his evaluation from the outside and that's his opinion and that's okay. ... Maybe what he means is that he feels medicated by them."
