Mary-Kate Olsen Vs. Spencer Pratt: The Backstory Behind Their War Of Words
Posted by Molly Friedman at 7:40 AM on June 28, 2008
Right on the heels of Mary-Kate Olsen's passive aggressive jabs at ex-classmate and David Letterman punching bag Spencer Pratt last night, the professional Hollywood sleazeball has promptly retaliated by releasing a few downright cruel and unoriginal insults to Us today. As Pratt tells the weekly:
"I don't really get why she'd use my name to get press for her little indie film that no one's going to see...I know I've made it in Hollywood when a famous troll is talking about me on Letterman...I forgive her, though. She's had to go through life as the less cute twin, which must be tough."
As the war between actual working actress Olsen and reality trash-talker Pratt heats up, we dug up evidence that this battle has a much longer history than we thought. After the jump, the sordid high-school photo scandal that sparked the Olsen vs. Pratt battle years ago.
In the Us piece, Spencer throws a curveball into the mix by stating he and Mary-Kate didn't even attend the same high school, which is (not scientifically, by any means) actually evident on several "news" sites. But whether or not Olsen's quietly harsh comments about Pratt's soccer game hissy fits are slightly tarnished by this info, the two most certainly spent time socializing before Olsen hit her NYU hobo years and anyone on the planet knew who Pratt even was. After revisiting a Details profile on Spencer and his then-partner in crime Brody Jenner from last year, we noticed this plum detail: "the guy...will proudly tell you he made $50,000 in high school by selling a photo he took of Mary-Kate Olsen drinking at a party." One search through an Olsens fan site later turns up the picture in question, which looks less to us like evidence that MK is a "drunk" lush, and more like evidence that MK has always been the pruney-smiling party girl we've grown to know and love. Not to mention that Spencer, pictured upper left, has always been incredibly scary to look at. Team Olsen is where we remain.

Well, if he made $50K selling what basically looks like a photo-op gone awry, then MK has every right to out his worminess.
And yes, I'm going to kill myself for calling her MK.

The Olsens make more money taking a shit (volume not withstanding) than this douchenozzle does with all of his "business enterprises" in one year.
Seriuosly, when will this fucktard be leaving?

Please, she just said they weren't really friends and laughed off stuff Dave said. I actually kind of liked her in the interview, to be honest.
Even my younger cousin has stopped watching The Hills, so I'm not sure what Spencer thinks he has left ot offer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't this ass-hat go to Crossroads? That place can really turn 'em out.

I like how Spencer defines the 14:59 mark as "made it in Hollywood." What's your backup plan again?

I usually don't care either way about the Olsens, but can Spencer seriously shut the eff up? The Olsens have built a legitimate empire, and Spencer spends his days getting his rocks off by tipping off his own paps. Dude, you're gross.

And yet he's so correct in his description of her as a "famous troll." I feel funny inside. I am finding myself laughing in agreement with the biggest douche in Hollywood.

@RocketRockit: I completely agree. I find the Olsen twins a bit annoying but Spencer Pratt is scum.

Wouldn't it would be sweet if MK hired someone truly fearless like, say, Dessarae Bradford to just rub him out?
(And by "rub him out" I don't mean in the Sony-lot lunch-break sort of way).

Mary-Kate is the cuteness and Spencer Pratt is the devil.
Okay, he's not nearly smart enough to be the devil - but he is disturbingly similar to the character of Iago. The similarities are spelled out here: [acerbicbubblegum.blogspot.com]
Seriously...disturbingly similar.

Troll? Girlfriend made her own money and he's calling her a troll? I've never even seen this guy and can already tell he's a loser.

She looks odd(er) in that photo but there's no alcohol - only a water bottle. He's saying he made $50,000 off a photo of MKO with H2O?! Anyway, SP reminds me of all the mean, insecure, no-nothing bullies in Jr. High. He needs to go away. Team Olsen.

spenser is like that frat guy I dated sophmore year who just doesn't know that his lack of intellgence does not make him attractive, and definatly does not make him well liked.
and if that picture is the one that proves MK is a lush, I guess we are suppose to assume that the water bottle isn't full of water? I call B/S

Notice how he's the only one in the photo with replicant red-eye. Somebody should ask him "You're in a desert walking alone when you see a tortoise...." Oh wait, he'd fail that test as soon as the VK machine got switched on.

She's not saying "prune," she's saying "dude." As in, "Dude, get the eff off of me."

I just renamed my TV "Spencer Pratt" and beat it to death with a hammer.

it kind of looks like Spencer and the other guy wanted MK to get drunk so they could have their picture taken with an Olsen twin. She doesn't even look like she wants to be near them.
Either way, Pratt is a douche and no one likes him anyway.

MaryKate made Spencer Pratt's weekend by metioning him last night. HE thrives off of being the scum that he is.
