Mary-Kate Olsen
You see a tabloid shot of Mary-Kate Olsen and think, "Why does she look
so depressed?" Well, there's a reason for that. "I don't want my picture
taken," the 21-year-old actress tells Entertainment Weekly magazine. "The
only time I think it's OK is at a red-carpet event or a photo shoot.
"So every time I see paparazzi, I cover my face so they don't get a
picture, and I'm just `the mean person who doesn't smile.'"
Olsen, whose waiflike figure has made her a target of media scrutiny,
avoids public displays of attention.
"I would love to be able to swim in the ocean in Malibu," she says. "But
that is asking for a bikini shot. That's inviting something that I don't
want to happen. I don't need to be on a `Who's Skinny, Who's Fat, Who's
Looking Healthy, Who's Not Eating?' list."
After a hiatus from acting, Olsen 鈥� who rose to fame on TV's "Full
House" in a shared role with twin sister Ashley 鈥� will portray an
alluring Christian girl on Showtime's "Weeds." Her 10-episode arc begins
Sept. 17.
She also returns to the big screen in "The Wackness," co-starring Ben
Kingsley. The film is slated for release next year.
"There's definitely been times in my life when I just turned to people
and said, `I'm done, this is too much for me, this is too overwhelming,'"
Olsen says.
She's in a healthy frame of mind these days.
"Mentally, physically, I feel pretty on top of my game right now," Olsen
says. "Talk to me next week, I don't know. Today, I feel good."
