The Olsen twins’ West Village neighbors are sick and tired of the skeletal twosome. They say that the twins’ self-centered lifestyle and ridiculously overdone security are changing the tone of the neighborhood for the worst. They have a litany of complaints, and they make it sound like the girls are pretty selfish.
Since then, it’s only gotten worse. One resident called the frail fashionistas “two spoiled brats” who “change the character of the neighborhood” by posting security guards outside. The goons have even rousted residents of the building from their perches on the brownstone’s stoop so the twins can climb the steps in privacy.
A block resident told us two giant GMC Denali trucks are parked outside the townhouse every night, with hired muscle who keep the engines idling for hours at a time. “You would think there was a government operation going on,” the resident said.
“It is a peaceful, quiet street,” the source added. “Plenty of other celebrities around this block [Sarah Jessica Parker, Liv Tyler, Gisele Bundchen and Julianne Moore] are good neighbors and blend in with the neighborhood - but these two are invaders.”… “The good news is that it’s only a rental,” said our source, “and we all hope it’s not a long-standing one.”
A rep for the Olsens denied that security has ever asked anyone to leave the stoop and told Page Six, “If there were significant issues, you would think that the neighbors would address Ashley or Mary-Kate directly, rather than calling the media.”

Well you’d think if there were any truth to the ridiculously overprotective nature of the twins’ security, it might not be possible for their neighbors to address them directly. Perhaps their only recourse is the media.
This isn’t the first time West Village residents have complained about the Olsens. In May everyone from their local Starbucks barista to people that live down the block had a bone to pick with the girls. There is an amount of security that is necessary, and then there’s an amount that is self-indulgent and simply meant to keep every single person away. We all have to interact with other people, like it or not. It’s like Mary-Kate and Ashley have hired someone so they don’t even have to interact with their neighbors on the front stoop. Clearly living a completely isolated existence is much more important than being considerate of anyone else.

These two piss me off and I don’t live anywhere near them.
I did read that Starbucks employees put whole milk instead of skim in their ‘caffeine cocktails”

Totally off subject, but Jello, I mean Jlo has injured her foot……and the triathalon’s this weekend!!!!
I had to share

I hate the Olsens so much. These girls have every chance to do so much good and they do stupid crap like make coffee table books! You have fame, money and an audience (after spending years making really successful straight-to-DVD movies for kids that all grew up right on track with them) - what do they do? DRUGS. Dress like hobo’s. They are useless and I pray for the day they wrong someone badly, get sued and lose all their money, because they don’t deserve it. Screw ‘em!

I always laugh when someone talks about how the Olsens “built their own empire.” Please. They had grownup marketing/business minions do the building while they slapped their names and faces on the resulting merchandise. And after all the money they’ve made, both girls always seem so miserable and bored.

What are they doing, slipping through the mail slots at night and stealing their jelly doughnuts?

These girls used to be so sweet, seems it has gone to their heads and they think they are made of gold…to bad, with their money they can help many people who are not as fortunate.

The baristas snuck in whole milk instead of skim milk into their coffees? Maybe that’s why MK looks like she’s gained a little weight possibly? If so she must be over-caffeinated constantly like I am. I LOVE coffee! That neighborhood is totally uppity…I’d love to live there but I can only afford to live with four other people to a two bedroom in the West Vilage. It’s so over-priced!

The terms of the building’s lease must surely have some clauses preventing tenants from causing nuisance (eg the security vehicles engines running constantly): that’s standard and would apply to anyone who lives there. The Olsen Sticks are not above the law - the other residents should sue their skinny size-00 a**es.

You would figure they would want to blend in quietly with their neighbors. I mean isn’t that the point of NYC, the anonymity?
They may want to respect their neighbors wishes and tone it down, they are adults now, with an adults obligations, and responsibilities. -
““change the character of the neighborhood” by posting security guards outside”
If the girls are that concerned about their safety, why are they living in New York? No one would think to look for them in Lincoln, Illinois, or McAlester, Oklahoma. -
if a bodyguard tried to muscle me off my own steps so a celeb could walk down them i would kick and scream like a banshee. no way would they move my ass. why don’t the twins either blend or just live in LA where that kind of behavior is typical?

Who cares how cute they were as kids. Now they’re just freakish like Michael Jackson. Two little stickpin druggies with too much money and no more talent. Although could you really call Full House and supplying the voices for cartoons acting?

Personally, after having spent nearly 4 years going to school in the West Village, I’m rooting for the Olsens. In my experience the “character” of that neighborhood is so unbelievably rude and exclusionary that I’m glad someone’s p•ssing them off.
Gee, can you tell I’m not a New York kinda gal?
