Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen began their career as infants, and never really slowed down. In 2002, when the twins were only 16 years old, Fortune reported them as "the most financially successful child stars ever." The sisters' success was so pervasive that their team founded a production company (Dualstar) just for them in 1993, which is said to have generated $500 million in retail sales in 2001 alone.

By the early '00s, they had their own fan club, dolls, countless movies and even a TV show. Despite their astronomical success, however, the twins pretty much dropped off the face of the earth in recent years — so much so that an exhibit titled 'Olsen Twins Hiding From the Paparazzi' opened up in New York City. So what's this secretive duo been up to? Here's why you never hear from the Olsen twins anymore.

Thanks for the news. I can't blame them for wanting a more normal life these days when a life front of the camera was never really their decision in the first place.

God bless you and the girls always!!!

Holly (a day one fan of them)

P.S. I pray that cigarettes become another thing of their past because to me they don't do a favor for anyone.

8. The Olsen Twins
Since growing up in the spotlight when they were only a few months old, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen seemed to be formed by Hollywood. They starred in multiple of their own movies before they were even in their teens and are now taking on a billion dollar business. However, as they got older they dropped from the spotlight almost completely, and most definitely stopped speaking to the media. As they transitioned from Hollywood superstars to just fashion designers, the pair have briefly spoken out and in 2011 told Style.com that they have a lot of “anxiety” about sharing personal information, which makes interviews particularly difficult for them. “We’ve spent our whole lives trying to not let people have that accessibility,” Mary-Kate stated.
