Give Us Your Money And Go
Have you ever bought an autograph of a celebrity off eBay? You know they might not be real buy you take your chances. One good thing though is you are almost always guaranteed a thank you from the seller because they don't want you to say anything bad about them because then no one else will buy anything from them, and then they won't have a business and they will be out on the streets and begging for food.
So, apparently though the Olsen twins have not quite learned that lesson yet. In addition, they seem to have forgotten one thing. The only reason they are where they are is because of fans, some good writers on Full House, a lucky time slot, and smart parents. Notice that fans is first. Without fans they would have much less money. Think about all those stupid detective books and films they had and their kids clothing lines and without fans they have nothing.
Well yesterday when they were signing books in New York, here was a list of rules that the NY Post acquired.
1. No speaking to the Olsens (how about making snide comments to yourself)
2. The Olsens will not speak to you (not missing much)
3. The Olsens will not be reading (I think only one can)
4. They will not answer questions. (tough when you are not speaking)
5. Not sign anything other than their book (common but still jerkish. I mean you have been selling people crap for 20 years.)
6. One book per person (like anyone is going to want two of the f**kers. But please, like they wouldn't sell their souls for another $32.
7. No photography allowed (because that would encourage fans to think the Olsens cared about them)
So, if you were going to devise a way to piss off your fans as completely and thoroughly as possible, this would be a great way to start. All this is saying is give us your damn money and get the hell out. Do you get any other kind of reaction when you see those rules? It was probably just people shuffling in line quietly, handing a book to the Olsens and having them sign it. Since you couldn't talk I guess it was just a signature. I'm surprised the Olsens just didn't have a rubber stamp with their signature that says, "you met us. now leave."

The only thing these two trolls have done in the last couple of years is masquerade as hobos...
very lucky girls is all i gotta say. when they were on 'full house', and i hate talking about kids mind you, they had faces only a mother could love.
lucky indeed.
I went with my parents to a book signing by John Denver back in the day. Similar rules - he couldn't bother too look up and greet the fans at all. My parents were crushed. At least in the Olsen's case, they haven't been trying to promote and wholesome, down-to-earth image.
I wish I were on that coast I'd rip the pages out of the book, stomp my foot and flounce away.

I don't see anything about not using a video camera lol.
Fuck the rules, I'd go through all the bs just to walk up there, call them fugly skank anorexic drug addicted bitch trolls and still be yelling out scathing adjectives and metaphors as security drags me away.
I'd love for them to sit there all day and no one show up to their stupid signing...
what's pathetic are the parents who will follow these rules and bow to the idiotic demands. What kind of lesson is that for your kid?
I don't think anyone showed up, lol
I am in NYC and there was not even a mention of their appearance on the news
i h8 thz troll bitches!
Of course they won't be answering questions. Someone might ask them about the contents of "their" book.
lmao@montanamarriott. that would be great if nobody showed up. this way they got to do exactly what they wanted which was to just sit on their ungrateful asses.
this immediately made me think of the soup nazi on seinfeld.
I'm not trying to break up the hate fest. But I saw some photos somewhere of them smiling and appearing to talk to the fan they were handing a book.
these two little snobs can only go away if we just ignore them and don't buy their products.
poof! now they're here, and now they're gone or they'll suddenly become tooth decay sweet to all of their fans.
as the soup nazi says, NEXT!
liveunderarock, could be that the story isn't the whole story. i remember when enty posted the same kind of thing about mariah snubbing the fans and saying no pics or discussion with her, and then someone posted a site with a lot of photo's of her with different fans, so this could be one of those not quite true stories.
One question--who exactly is their fan base at this point?
Good question Adrian. I can't think of a single person who is a fan, nor can I figure out who'd they be targeting, and with what. They don't "do" anything anymore except design overpriced shit. So I guess their real fan base is spoiled fashionistas with eating disorders like themselves.
Bad Fish, you are probably correct, but I never hear of anyone saying they can't wait for the next Olsen Twin adventure. I think they lost their fan base years ago.
Hmmmm, what kind of people actually ARE their fans? This could be worth a study - if you need a topic for your ph.d dissertation, this one could be verrrry interesting.
These girls are such cunts. Please let them OD already? Please?
ms cool
Denver's head was never found after the plane crash.
Sometimes karma is fun.
