Bringing you the latest happenings on Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen right here!

  • Finally, some more news on Mary-Kate & Ashley's Happening! Their new You're invitied video "Fashion Party" will be released on September 7, 1999! Only 2 more months!

  • The new adventures book "The Case of the Slam Dunk Mystery"'s release date will be pushed back until January 2000.

  • In just one more month, the twins will be heading on another Sail with the Stars cruise with their lucky fans! From August 23-30th, they will be cruising around Alaska!

  • The Mary-Kate & Ashley 2000 Calendar has just been released by the publisher on July 16th. Bookstores will have them in stock in about a month or two!

  • Currently, the twins are already back from Paris! No other new plans were announced, so they're probably just enjoying summer vacation until the cruise comes.

  • Sadly, ABC decided to pull Two of a Kind from its schedule even before the new season begins. This means we will no longer be seeing anymore Two of a Kind on TV anymore :( The only good thing to make up for this is that we'll be able to see the twins again this fall in "Switching Goals", "Passport to Paris", "Fashion Party", and plenty of new books headed our way! So don't worry, we'll be seeing our favorite actresses plenty of times.

  • It's renewal season and ABC is still deciding whether to keep "Two of a Kind" because of it's falling ratings. The good news about this bad part is if ABC decides to drop the show, the WB network will mostly likely pick the show up since they're starting a pro-family programing on Fridays next fall as well!

  • Mary-Kate and Ashley are currently in Toronto, Canada to film their new ABC-TV movie, Switching Goals. They'll be there for 6 six weeks. After that, they're headed for Paris to start their new video movie, so a majority of their summer vacation will be spent working.

  • Network news! Because NBC's "Providence" drew many adult views away from the TGIF sitcoms on Fridays, ABC might consider doing more adult shows. ABC also has other worries, because "Two of a Kind" is produced by Warner Bros. Television, whose sister network, the WB, is expected to expand to Friday nights next season and would no doubt love having the show if ABC drops it. Therefore, do not worry about Two of a Kind going off the air as many rumors might have said. Even if ABC drops it, there is a very high chance the WB channel would pick the show up, just like the once ABC show "Sister, Sister" Thanks for Yoshieye for contributing this great new info!

  • Mary-Kate and Ashley are heading off to Toronto Canada next month to start filming their new movie "Switching Goals".

  • On March 29, 1999, Mary-Kate and Ashley had a special training session with Mia Hamm and other members of the Olympic Champion U.S. Women's National Team at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena to prepare for their new ABC movie "Switching Goals". Clips from this event will be shown during ABC's TGIF block on June 4, leading into the June 6 kick-off of pre-Cup coverage on ABC/ESPN.

  • Since they are the teen ambassadors of this big event, Mary-Kate and Ashley will report online from April to June about the upcoming Women's World Cup. They also will host the Women's World Cup Block party July 9 in Los Angeles, one day before the final game of the tournament.

  • The opening ceremonies on the Women's World Cup is June 19 at Giants Stadium in New York and will be hosted by the twins, so if you are able to buy tickets to this event, you might get to see them!

  • One detail about their new direct-to-video movie filmed in Paris is about they twins going to visit their uncle and shop.

  • Very Exclusive News! Mary-Kate and Ashley have signed a deal to star and produce a new soccer-themed movie for ABC's "Wonderful World of Disney" next season called "Switching Goals". It is about two girls who play soccer, but only one is athletic (most likely played by Mary-Kate). They switch places when their father becomes too competitive. Sounds interesting huh?
