PETA Wishes Olsen Twins A Very Hairy Happy Birthday
Posted by Molly Friedman at 6:20 AM on June 14, 2008
The long-running war between the celebrity-obsessed activists at PETA and the tiny fur-obsessed Olsen Twins makes Cruise v. Shields scrap look like the Anglo-Zanzibar War in comparison. In the past, we've tended to laugh along as PETA got huffy at the tiny millionaires every time they insisted on draping themselves in the former coats of lions, tigers and bears during August heat waves, but a statement from the borderline bestiality fan group released today has us wondering which is worse: designing a (generally critically praised) collection including fur, or catty threats viciously aimed at the pair:
"Thin-twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are about to get some publicity that will have them running away faster than if they'd spotted a calorie...As the Olsen twins prepare to celebrate their 22nd birthday this Friday, they'll be getting some unusual 'gifts' in the mail... from countless young people who object to cruelty to animals."
What the Olsens' birthday present(s) will be from PETA and why, after the jump.
Rather than sending a months-long supply of trendy Detox lemon and maple syrup drinks to their 24/7 New York party palace, the animal lovers have recruited their junior committee, known as Peta2, to chop off their granola-laced dreadlocks and ship them to Casa Olsens by the truckload. As the LAT reports, the group's site has "posted a 'mission' on its highly trafficked web site, Peta2.com, urging young people to send the fur-wearing twins snippets of their own hair along with a note that reads, 'Please, use my hair instead of the animals.'" As brilliant and crafty as PETA may deem their master plan, we suspect the improvisational fashionistas will prune with delight after receiving the massive human hair delivery. Judging from their bizarre sartorial decisions in the past, look out for human hair earrings, human hair buttons and ties made out of narly dreadlock braids to appear on the pages of Vogue next month.

...and if the Olsens aren't interested in using the locks, I hear Fiddle-Diddle (or whatever his nom de Rap is this week) needs something to replace all the dog fur in last year's Sean John collection.

Trollsen Twins state: "Our granny Trollsen says PETA types are full of prunes, so there!" Did anyone else notice that the "Michelle alone in the shot" take they had to use on Full House was also the shot used for M-K's work on Weeds? Do they still have to clear the set so her trainer can bully her into repeating her lines? And what do they threaten her with...ice cream? **************Vote for your city's best dining and nightlife. City's Best 2008. (http://citysbest.aol.com?ncid=aolacg00050000000102)

Maybe they should get Lacey from the first "Rock of Love" to protect them. She sure knows her way around a stole.

I personally think they both look like Golum, and they can put as many expensive chinchila furs on them as they want, they're still both ugly as sin and look like homeless people when out in public! In fact, I'm damn sure I've seen better dressed homeless peeps!
They're lucky I'm not one of these PETA nutters, I'd be following them around with cans of red paint wherever they went.....its not as if they can fucking run, what,with those 8" platforem shoes they're always wearing........

"It took me 2 years to grow my frocks to this level, but I'll gladly have them shorn to teach a lesson to a pair of billionaire twits who won't understand the message, because I want to make a difference!"
If you really want to get their attention why not send them the wax strips from your Brazilian?

If the squirrels died a natural death, I don't see anything wrong with using their fur.
