| - Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Fuller Olsen (born June 13, 1986), also known as the Olsen Twins collectively, are American actresses and fashion designers. The sororal twins made their acting debut as infants playing Michelle Tanner on the television series Full House. At the age of six, they began starring together in TV, film, and video projects, which continued to their teenage years. Through their company Dualstar, the Olsens joined the ranks of the wealthiest women in the entertainment industry at a young age.
- They played Brian and Stewie Griffin in later episodes of The Real Live Griffins after the real family quits in "Fifteen Minutes of Shame". They were both voiced by Tara Strong. Bitter about being in the Christmas Pageant, Stewie mentions going to Hollywood and wrangling himself in a three-way with the twins in "A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas". In a parody of Heath Ledger's overdose death, Jesus is found unconscious from a drug overdose in Mary-Kate's apartment in "I Dream of Jesus".

- Born in Sherman Oaks, California to David Olsen (a Danish American) and Jarnette Jones, the Olsens started their acting careers on the television series Full House in 1987. The show was widely popular during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and both sisters played one character, Michelle Tanner, taking turns. The spread workload allowed the producers to record more each week while still complying with child labor laws regarding child actors. To hide that fact that that Michelle's role was played by two people, the sisters were originally credited as an individual named "Mary Kate Ashley Olsen", but later credited as separate people. Both sisters played one character Julian 'Frankenstien' McGrath in Big Daddy (1999)
- Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have been household names nearly all their lives--first as actresses, then as fashion darlings. Born and raised in California, the twins arrived on the Hollywood scene at nine months old to play Michelle Tanner in Full House. Many seasons, videos, TV shows, and made-for-TV movies followed--but as they got older, their sense of style and interest in fashion began to show. And they got busy--really busy--making a name for themselves as fashion designers and icons.

Born and raised in California, the twins arrived on the Hollywood scene at nine months old to play Michelle Tanner in Full House. Many seasons, videos, TV shows, and made-for-TV movies followed--but as they got older, their sense of style and interest in fashion began to show. As teens they became bonafide fashionistas. Sometimes their looks were hits; sometimes they were definitely not. Sometimes they got a lot of flack for wearing fur. Mary-Kate became famous for her "homeless" look, complete with baggy sweaters, oversized sunglasses and enormous Starbucks Coffee cups. Love 'em or hate 'em, the girls stuck out with their fashion choices. And they got busy--really busy--making a name for themselves as fashion designers and icons. In 2012, the Council of Fashion Designers of America honored the style- and business-savvy duo with the coveted womenswear designer of the year award for their high-end fashion label, The Row.

Both sisters played one character Julian 'Frankenstien' McGrath in Big Daddy (1999) The twins received SAG scale for the first few seasons but then hired Robert Thorne at the suggestion of other parents who pointed out the popularity of the twins. 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. Taking the world of pre-teens and children by storm, their names have become a very profitable industry, with their likeness seen in movies, posters, magazines, clothes, and even video games like Mary Kate and Ashley's Magical Mystery Mall. As of 2005, Mary-Kate and Ashley are popular figures in today's pre-teen market, following along the lines of such Hollywood child stars as Shirley Temple, Ron Howard and Macaulay Culkin among others. They starred in The Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley and the ABC show Two of a Kind (now rerun on ABC Family), as well as ABC Family's So Little Time. They also have their own book series. In 2004 Mary-Kate and Ashley surprised many when they 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 until Mary-Kate dropped out in late 2005 to persue her acting career in LA while Ashley remained on the east coast. In April 2012, Mary-Kate began dating Olivier Sarkozy, the half-brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who is 17 years older than her. In February 2014, the couple became engaged, with Olivier presenting Mary-Kate with a vintage 1953 Cartier 4-carat diamond ring worth a reported $81,000. In mid-September 2014, the couple appeared in public wearing matching thin gold wedding bands, sparking rumors that they were now married. The wedding was confirmed by an anonymous source close to the couple on September 25th, who added that they had married in a small private ceremony attended by family and a few close friends.
