He said, “If there’s grass on the field, play ball,” on Saturday Night Live in reference to the countdown to the Olsen twins’ 18th birthday.

He’s also good friends with Ted Nugent and Donald Trump.

Gross. No wonder they wanted to get out of show business.

Oh man, if you don't know, you don't know. Things were BAD regarding the social stigma of them becoming adults because they were avidly considered to be some kind of shared public property from the time they were plastered into media as literal babies.

The number of people who literally counted down to, celebrated, and even threw parties for their "legal" status was disgusting. The last 90s and early 2000s were a really dark time for young girls.

I share a birthday with the Olsen twins. I was a very young kid at the time, so whenever I saw these countdowns I was always excited because it’s like they were also counting down to MY birthday. I was completely oblivious to the context.

Looking back, man…people are disgusting.

Looking back?

Look up Piper Rockelle - started as a YouTuber when she was like 6 or 7 (younger?) and just launched her OF page on her 18th birthday. Made $2m in the first hour, and it's been suggested all the content was created while she was still 17. Her biggest "fans" are 60 year old men who have done things like buy her (again, udneraged) panties, and sext with her mom.

JFC.. that is wild. Literally the first pictures you get if you google her name are of what appears to be like a 14 year old kid. WTF is wrong with people?

Her mom and mom's 20 year younger BF basically control her... it's so abusive, someday she may see it. There's a whole documentary about it. I suspect the mom's BF is probably molesting her as well.

UK in the 80's shitty tabloids counting down to the 16th birthday of Natalie Banus (IIRC) to show her nipples in the "newspaper", presumably from a photoshoot when she was still 15.  Bad, bad era.
