Olsen Twins at it again: Target second t-shirt company in less than a week

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 27, 2004"”Las Vegas based internet company Tshirthell.com was hit with a Cease and Desist Order from Dual Star Entertainment the same day as the Los Angeles based "Save Mary-Kate" t-shirt company was issued a similar communication. While the Save Mary Kate camp has chosen to comply and discontinue selling their shirts, Tshirthell.com claims it is not going to back down.

"What did the Olsen Twins have...a Cease and Desist slumber party? I wonder how many other lucky t-shirt companies received similar communications", commented Gary Cohen, director of operations at T-Shirt Hell.

The controversy is a result of the T-Shirt Hell t-shirt with the words, "I *bleeped* The Olsen Twins Before They Were Famous".

Aaron Landau Schwarz, the founder and owner of T-Shirt Hell said, "This whole thing is completely without merit. This is as frivolous as Mary-Kate at a buffet breakfast. It's a classic case of a little guy being bullied by a big corporation, ironically one made up of two little girls. So you could say it's a case of a little guy, being bullied by two little girls, but I would prefer you didn't".

When asked if they'll see the case all the way to court, T-Shirt Hell claimed that the possibility was a dream come true. "It's not that we want to be sued on a regular basis, but an opportunity to meet Mary-Kate and Ashley is too good to be true. I can't wait to see their outfits. I know they'll be fabulous. And I know they'll be wearing one of the new mary-kateandashley perfumes, but which one? Will it be mary-kateandashley one, smelling of night blooming jasmine? Or mary-kateandashley two with hints of apple and white peach?".

"We know the twins take a pretty hard line on justice", said Aaron. "I remember in "The Case of The Cheerleading Tattletale", when the twins were at Camp Pom-Pom, and the Pirates from Camp Spirit stole their cheer. They were pretty miffed. But this is nothing like that".

Launched in October 2001, www.tshirthell.com is the most visited t-shirt website on the Internet. The site averages over 75,000 unique visitors and over 400,000 page views daily (source Alexa.com).

Tshirthell.com is based in Las Vegas, Nevada, with a manufacturing facility located in Phoenix, Arizona.

I''m sorry but that is just profane. I mean, yea freedom of speech ra ra ok? But the Olsen twins were... what? 2-3 YEARS OLD when they got famous?

Yea I know its a gag, and they look damn hot now (I''d do em) but this story is just stoopid.

Cease and Desist is cool by me.

Those are some hilarious quotes. I am definitely rooting for these guys, and perhaps I will purchase a garment as well :0

All celebreties should expect to become slandering targets, but this is too much. I don''t know what the Olsen twin did to attract this kind of attention, but nobody deserves to walk down the street and learn that they had sex with some stranger before they were famous.

I know, learning it on the street like that is horrible. Their parents should sit down and have a talk with them about their sex life before they were famous, before it''s too late.

Infants, actually. The amazing thing about them is that they are still somehow famous despite the fact that they started as toddlers.

The Olsen twins are the vile, evil, nefarious, disgusting, frightning spawn of Satan himself! All of their talent was used up in the very first season of Full House and they are now mere shells of actresses. They must return to the depths of the river Styx from which they were bred!

Yankees rock, you know it's true...

Look, I''m not defending them; Lord knows everytime in the past year I''ve heard/read someone said they liked to f*ck them, I''ve been tempted to smack them with the lead pipe in the conservatory for it, but jeez. If the Olsen Twins get your sex motor started, even now as they look like they''re borderline jailbait, you need help. I''m talking a nude pictorial of Kate Beckinsale and Jennifer Garner help.

That''s a pretty funny t-shirt... honestly, if you''re the type to buy from t-shirt hell (who can forget I (plane) N Y?) then I think you''d find this funny.

I bought a t-shirt once that said ""I listened to *Nsync, back when they were Underground."" Same humor, basically, but on a much, MUCH darker level...

Some funny quips this guy has got. This ""before they were famous"" part is macking of just plain bad taste, but the Olsens'' case is obviously without merit. Or do you think they would settle out of court if he drops ""before they were famous"" part and sells T-shirts with ""I <bleeped> the Olsen twins, period"" only?

It's precisely when humor is offensive that we need it the most. Comedy should provoke, it should blast through prejudices, challenge preconceptions. Comedy should always leave you different than when it found you. Sure, humor can hurt, even alienate, but the risk is better than the alternative: a steady diet of innocuous, child-proof flavorless mush!

Demand to be challenged! To be offended! To be treated like thinking, reasoning adults! And raise your children to be the same. Don't let a comedian, a network, a congressional committee or an evil genius to take away your freedom to laugh at whatever you want.

Do you ever walk alone like a drifter in the dark?

The girls are an industry... you should see the amount of coin they bring in. The lawyers are just protecting their industry while the marketers are thinking ""How come we did not think of that first.""

If they''d just ignored this, no one woud have paid any attention to the t-shirts and no harm would be done. By drawing attention to them, they''ve now made sure that half the Internet knows about them, and encouraged other vendors to create items that will create a similar stir. Mary Kate and Ashley - what a pair of boobs! Errr...

True true - only the t-shirt hell fans would have heard without all this press... now MANY more people are going to know about (and probably buy) the t-shirt.

Maybe thats the marketer''s intent in the first place... After they get a cut of each t-shirt from the manufacturer after threatening legal action.

I love capitalism!

I love my ""WWJD For a Klondike Bar"" T-shirt, but some of the stuff T-Shirt Hell offers is prohibited even by bad taste.
