Attack Of The Giant Starlets

Remember that photo of Macy Gray that gave us nightmares? This week, Star magazine's at it again.

Mandy's head is like twice the size of an Olsen head!

No way, I have a 5'1" friend and a 5'10" friend and it's nothing like that.

the average supermodel is actually one inch taller than mandy moore.

do the olsen twins have midget parents? they look like wide-eyed raggamuffins, too. why the hell did they do milk commercials if they're 3 feet tall? i guess their eyeballs are the biggest things about them. that and their bank accounts.
did you hear they admitted they only receive 10 dollars a week allowance (IF they do all their chores)...

yeah, look at the Olsen eyes.

I am afraid to stare at them, lest they steal my soul.

Marion, don't look at it. Shut your eyes, Marion. Don't look at it no matter what happens...

Mandy doesn't have a giant head, she's normal! it's the Olsens that are bug-eyed midgets.

They ARE midgets! I saw them this week, and even though they were wearing serious heels I towered over them and I am only 5'8", so that Mandy Moore graph is spot on. They are a little disappointing, truth be known.

I didn't even recognize Mandy. I don't think I've ever seen the left side of her face before.

i would have to say mandy is more pleasant to look at (features and style). there's absolutely nothing wrong with being short (or tall), but to be a bug-eyed midget is something else.

it's true, the bug-eyes are really creepy...

I would have imagined this pic was Photoshopped but it's in this month's Rolling Stone too.

Here's another picture from that day where they're sitting so the height difference isn't noticeable, but the Olsens -- especially Ashley -- are still looking weird:

It looks as if Mandy has been superimposed into the picture. It's kind of scary.

It just dawned on me why they creep me out so badly. They look like fucking Oompa Loompas. Real live walking, talking Oompa Loompas.

Where is the scale? 1 cm = 3 inches? 'Cause I know Mandy is not that freakishly large.

Wait a minute! Isn't Ashley the one that's 5'2" and mary-kate the one that's shorter? Geezus! When you can't trust the Star to get their facts straight, who can you trust!

Man! it's a good thing they made the majority of their profit when they were younger because they couldn't bank off those looks now..unless of course they'd played hobbits or trolls in some movie...but damn 5'1! I was 5'1 when I was 10
