Ashley Olsen Book Signing Sparks Protest....

A book-signing for fans of twin actresses Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen took an ugly turn when they were bombarded by a legion of angry protestors wearing mocking masks of the pair.Fans lined up to meet the 22-year-old moguls, who were celebrating the release of their new coffee table book, Influence, on Tuesday (28Oct08).But the pair were stunned to find animal rights activists shouting outside the event - part of a campaign launched by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) against the stars for their fashion choices.

A Peta spokesperson tells Wenn: "People who still wear fur haven't woken up to the fact that a big, dead animal on your back makes you look like a troll."Compassionate fashionistas know that real beauty comes from the heart - something that the Trollsen Twins seem to lack, considering all the animals they've killed for their clothes."Meanwhile the twin media moguls Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen disappointed fans hoping for photos at a recent book signing - after a long list of strict demands were posted by the pair.Fans lined up for signed copies of the 22-year-olds' new coffee table book Influence, but were taken aback by the nine-point list they were asked to abide by before greeting the stars - including a "no pictures" rule.
