<p>It was only a couple years ago that the Olsen twins were as ubiquitous as <strong>Lindsay Lohan</strong> and <strong>Kim Kardashian</strong> combined. But time has either been fair or unfair to <strong>Mary-Kate</strong> and <strong>Ashley </strong>(depending on your view of fame vs. the relative hassle of paparazzi stalking), and as of late its their younger sister <strong>Elizabeth </strong>who has been getting all the attention for her groundbreaking performance in <em>Martha Marcy May Marlene</em>.</p>
<p><!--more-->We're not saying this spotlight swivel would make New York's most infamous set of celebutante twins mad...but you know that none of <em>their </em>work in film has ever been called "<a href="http://www.movieline.com/2011/01/oscar-2012-watch-elizabeth-olsen-dazzles-in-martha-marcy-may-marlene.php">shattering</a>." (Despite the fact that one of the Ms. Olsens made out with <strong>Ben Kingsley</strong> in <em>The Wackness</em>.) So what have the twosome been doing to put their name back on their radar?</p>
<p>Going round the NYC party circuit, for deffies, like attending last night's cocktail party thrown by (for?) <strong>Christian Louboutin</strong> at Barney's. We must remember: these girls, like Ms. Kardashian, are entrepreneurs first...last we checked, their combined worth was in the billions (and that's not for their acting prowess). Their $39,000 <a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/stylebeauty/news/mary-kate-and-ashley-olsens-39000-backpack-sells-out-20111010">alligator backpacks</a> were flying off the shelves during Fashion Week, because who doesn't need an alligator backpack?</p>
<p>And apparently it was Mary-Kate, not Ashley who <em>Saturday Night Live</em> comedian <a href="http://www.amny.com/urbanite-1.812039/jason-sudeikis-gets-cozy-with-mary-kate-olsen-not-ashley-1.3276122"><strong>Jason Sudeikis</strong> has been seeing lately</a>. That makes sense: Mr. Sudeikis' last girlfriend was <strong>January Jones</strong>, another party-hopping, icy blonde. (Everyone knows MK <a href="http://www.celebitchy.com/13607/mary-kate_olsens_bodyguard_tells_all/">is the crazier of the twins</a>.) Ashley's love life is a little more speculative, but there's a chance she's trying to nab a certified geek, as evidenced by her and Mary-Kate's Halloween ad for a <a href="http://justjared.buzznet.com/photo-gallery/2586738/olsen-twins-batwoman-catwoman-01/">social-networking site featuring light sabers and storm trooper helmets</a>. Sexy!</p>
