PETA takes on “Trollsen Twins”

The furrified twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are on PETA’s naughty list this holiday season, but instead of a lump of coal in their stockings their getting their very own smear campaign. According to a press release, peta2 is launching what they’re calling the Trollsen Twins campaign that consists of an unflattering photo of the twins (who have been nicknamed Hairy-Kate and Trashley) with the slug “Fur is Worn by Beautiful Animals and Ugly People” scribbled across the lower part. The ad will be unveiled near the Olsen’s Walk of Fame star on Hollywood Boulevard. But wait, there’s more, peta2 is also launching a site dedicated to the doppelgängers, which will have interactive games (who needs to dress up a Barbie when, in the game Fatal Fashion, you can dress people up in furs with all the blood and gore that goes with them) and fun footage (Full House of Horrors will show old clips from their “You got it dude” days with snippets of animal slaughters dispersed throughout… sounds like good wholesome family viewing).
