Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Were the Chicest Goth Bridesmaids to Ever Walk Down the Aisle

Nicole Briese
Mar 13, 2017

When it comes to choosing a bridesmaid, you want someone that’s dependable, creative, organized, and always has your back. Sometimes, that person also just so happens to be famous, as was the case when Rihanna, Taylor Swift, LC, and Kristin Cavallari all pulled maid duty for their favorite gal pals.

Another famous celeb twosome has just jumped on the bridesmaid bandwagon in a move perhaps even more surprising than any of the aforementioned stars combined: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

According to POPSUGAR, the notoriously private fashion goddesses took a break from dealing with their intern woes to make their way down the aisle in honor of close friend Maggie Kayne’s nuptials. Kayne tied the knot with now-hubby Travis Hayden in a picturesque outdoor ceremony in Mangawhai, New Zealand, and the pint-size power duo was there to not only celebrate, but partake in the ritual.

Donning matching floor-length all-black gowns (because OF COURSE), their look was classic Olsen, right down to the chic parasol they carried and what we think was Ashley’s stole: Leave it to the Olsen twins to show up in dresses we’d actually WANT to wear.

The 30-year-old pair then took some time off (a difficult thing to do for Ashley) to enjoy the Tara Iti golf club owned by Kanye’s father, spending four days of R&R with their respective men, Olivier Sarkozy and Ashley’s BF, 58-year-old Richard Sachs.

Sheesh. Is there ANYTHING these two don’t look great doing? Sigh.

Where To Shop For Formalwear If You Miss The J.Crew Wedding Line

If you were in the bridal scene in the 2010s, chances are you remember J.Crew's bridal collection. The classic American brand traded boat shoes for ballgowns from 2004 until 2016, opening their first bridal boutique along NYC's Madison Avenue in 2010. Tragically, the once go-to shop for ready-to-wear bridal and bridesmaid gear was sunsetted as J.Crew went back to their traditional roots, leaving a gaping hole in the market.

Don't worry, though. J.Crew weddings may be a thing of the past, but we've got plenty of new brands with their own collections of stylish, classic wedding apparel — whether you're a bride, bridesmaid or guest.

13 Worst Christmas Movies To Hate-Watch This Holiday Season (We Know You Want To)

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I'm referring to our holiday movie watchlist, of course. The best new Christmas movies always make for a good time. But when it comes to the worst Christmas movies ever? Honestly, sometimes they make for an ever better time (especially when you're really dedicated to hate-watching). See which movies made the list below!

Keep reading to see the 13 worst Christmas movies that are so bad, they made the naughty list.

Our Little Secret (2024) — On Netflix Now

Chuck Zlotnick/Netflix

We're starting off strong with a Rotten Tomatoes rating that made my jaw drop! Despite the fact Lindsay Lohan's new comedy, which follows two exes who realize their partners are siblings, made me laugh out loud, it only got a RT rating of 36 percent and audience rating of 59 percent, as well as an IMDb rating of 5.8 out of 10. Yikes.

Four Christmases (2008) — On Hulu

New Line Productions

In my opinion, Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon are a match made in Heaven in Four Christmases, which follows their characters Brad and Kate as they go through four separate family gatherings on Christmas Day. Unfortunately, it looks like audiences disagree because the movie got a 5.7 out of 10 on IMDb and a 47 percent Rotten Tomatoes audience rating (with only a 25 percent from RT itself!!).

I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998) — On Hulu

Walt Disney Pictures

In I'll Be Home For Christmas, Jake (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) returns home for the holiday hoping that his estranged dad (Gary Cole) will get him a porsche...but winds up getting left with nothing but a Santa suit in the middle of the desert thanks to the football team. To make matters worse, his GF Allie (Jessica Biel) has no clue what happened to him, and decides to hitchhike with Jake's nemesis Eddie (Adam LaVorgna).

Even though it has a ton of elements that could make for an entertaining movie, this flick only got a 23 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, along with a 41 percent audience rating, and a 5.5 out of 10 on IMDb.

The Christmas Candle (2013) — On Tubi

EchoLight Studios

Despite the fact historical films like A Christmas Carol are beloved by so many, critics consider The Christmas Candle one of the worst Christmas movies. The story follows a minister (Hans Matheson) in 1800s England who finds himself in a standoff against townspeople (including Samantha Barks) who believe a candle, and an angel's touch, offer a miracle every Christmas Eve.

The movie only got a 22 percent on Rotten Tomatoes (despite the fact it has a 74 percent audience rating), and a 6.3 out of 10 on IMDb.

​Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas (2013) — On Tubi

KC Bailey/Lionsgate

Tyler Perry continues to be a fan favorite, proven by the fact that even though A Madea Christmas got a 21 percent on RT and a 5.1 out of 10 on IMDb, its RT audience score is 70 percent!

The Christmas movie follows Madea (Tyler Perry) and her niece Eileen (Anna Maria Horsford) on a journey to surprise Eileen's daughter Lacey (Tika Sumpter). Turns out, the reason Lacey didn't come home is she eloped! But it's with a character played by Chad Michael Murray, so I'm more than willing to press play on this one.

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006) — On Disney+

Walt Disney Studios

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and apparently the sentiment is not shared. This threequel follows Scott Calvin/Santa Claus (Tim Allen) goes toe-to-toe with Jack Frost (Martin Short) in a battle for the North Pole.

The movie only has a 17 percent RT rating and a 39 percent audience score, plus a 4.8 out of 10. Big yikes.

Deck the Halls (2006) — On Hulu

20th Century Fox/20th Century Studios

This horrible Christmas movie pairs up Matthew Broderick and Kristen Chenoweth three years after their stint in Disney's The Music Man, and follows Steve (Broderick) whose detailed, perfect Christmas is ruffled by Danny's (Danny DeVito) arrival in the neighborhood. One thing leads to another and suddenly Steve and Danny are in a battle to be the best-decorated house on the block. Oh, did I mention Kristin Davis costars?!

Deck the Halls has a startingly low rating of six percent on Rotten Tomatoes alongside its audience rating of 30 percent and a 5.1 out of 10 on IMDb.

A Law For Christmas (2023) — On Tubi

WesleyBros Productions

This new movie might have come just in time for the holidays last year, but viewers are wishing Santa had kept it for himself. The story (which stars Savannah Lathem and Chase Giacomo) follows a young politician who swaps the city for the country, and her job for her true calling.

It sounds romantic, but based on the 1.1 out of 10 rating on IMDb...it's not.

The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978)

CBS

I recently saw this special on air and, I'm sorry, I can totally see how some people consider this one of the worst Christmas movies. Aside from the fact it features OG Star Wars cast members like Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford, it just doesn't have the same magic as the movies we know and love.

The Star Wars Holiday Special follows Chewbacca and Han Solo as they journey to Kashyyyk (the Wookiee homeworld) for Life Day, and then have to entertain themselves when they're stopped by an Imperial blockade. Nothing says happy holidays like a 2.2 out of 10 IMDb rating and a 25 percent for both critics and audiences on RT. Unfortunately, it looks like this special isn't even available to stream.

Home Alone 3 (1997) — On Disney+

20th Century Fox/20th Century Studios

When are they gonna learn not to mess with originals?! Instead of picking up with Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin), Home Alone 3 introduces us to Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz) who has to defend his home from a new set of crooks when he's home sick.

The film has a 35 percent RT score and 27 percent audience rating, which is a far cry from Home Alone's respective 66 and 80 percents! The movie does star a young Scarlett Johansson though, so that's a plus.

Unaccompanied Minors (2006) — On Paramount+

John Bramley/Warner Bros. Entertainment

Being an unaccompanied minor might be every kid's dream but turns out, the movie's a nightmare. The story follows five stranded young adults (Dyllan Christopher, Tyler James Williams, Gia Mantegna, Quinn Shephard, and Brett Kelly) who take the opportunity to run buck wild in an airport (which...is still low-key a dream of mine TBH). Unfortunately their airport official (Lewis Black) and his assistant (Wilmer Valderrama) are not amused.

This bad Christmas movie has a 30 percent on RT with an audience rating of 35 percent, and an IMDb score of 5.4 out of 10.

The Perfect Holiday (2007) — On Peacock

Yari Film Group

The Perfect Holiday? Not so perfect. The movie follows divorcée Nancy (Gabrielle Union), whose youngest daughter Emily (Khail Bryant) plots to put a smile back on her mom's face. When she asks a store Santa Benjamin (Morris Chestnut) to give Nancy a compliment, she beings a chain of events that might just bring some Christmas magic back into their lives.

Sadly the movie only got a 19 percent RT score and 52 percent audience rating alongside an IMDb rating of 4.8 out of 10.

The Nutcracker: The Untold Story (2010) — Rent On Amazon Prime

Freestyle Releasing

And we're rounding out the list with what might be the worst Christmas movie of all; somehow The Nutcracker: The Untold Story got a ZERO PERCENT RATING on Rotten Tomatoes! How is that even possible?!

The movie follows Mary (Elle Fanning), who receives a magical nutcracker from her Uncle Albert (Nathan Lane). When the nutcracker comes to life and transports Mary to a magical land on Christmas night, she has to stand off against the evil Rat King — and rescue the nutcracker when he's kidnapped.

Unfortunately, the inspiring plot did not inspire viewers considering it got a 28 percent RT audience score and 4.1 out of 10 on IMDb.

We’re Drooling Over This Wildly Romantic Drip Layer Cake That’s Perfect for Your Bridal Shower

Pretty and demure or technicolor bright, drip cakesare definitely having a moment. There’s such drama in a colorful drip streaking down the side of a tall layer cake — it’s no surprise they’ve become so popular at weddings and showers. And it’s surprisingly simple to create your own. You just need to bake your favorite sponge cake, get creative with the decorations… and then decide on the all-important color of your drip! We used white chocolate ganache to create the drip in this recipe, and then tinted it using Americolor gel food coloring. We chose a medley of fresh fruit and herbs for the topper, but you can choose the decorations to suit your theme and occasion.

Ingredients:

For the cake layers

  • 10 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour
  • 11 1/2 ounces caster sugar
  • 2 ounces ground almonds
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 Tablespoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 7 ounces unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 6 1/2 fluid ounces whole milk + 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • extra butter and flour for the cake tins
  • four 6×3-inch cake tins
  • greaseproof paper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease four 6-inch cake tins. Line the bottoms with greaseproof paper, grease again, and dust with flour. Shake out any excess.
  2. Put the flour, sugar, ground almonds, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade or in the bowl of a stand mixer. Pulse or mix briefly to combine.
  3. Add the cubed butter, and pulse or mix again until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
  4. Add the eggs and mix until incorporated. You might need to scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is evenly mixed.
  5. Add the milk and vanilla extract and mix for 2-3 minutes until the batter is smooth. Again, scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake tins. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean and the cakes are springy to the touch.
  7. Leave the cakes to cool in the tins for 10 minutes, then carefully turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Cut any “domes” off the cakes using a serrated knife to ensure all layers are even and level.

Ingredients:

For the filling, frosting, and decorations

  • 14 ounces full-fat mascarpone
  • 8 1/2 fluid ounces heavy cream
  • 10 1/2 ounces icing sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 10 ounces store-bought lemon or passionfruit curd
  • 3 ounces fresh blueberries
  • a selection of fresh fruit such as figs, cherries, pomegranate, and blackberries to decorate
  • sprigs of fresh rosemary to decorate

For the drip

  • 3 1/2 ounces good quality white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 3 fluid ounces heavy cream
  • Americolor soft gel paste food colors

Instructions:

  1. Put all the mascarpone, heavy cream, icing sugar, and vanilla extract in the bowl of your stand mixer. Whisk on low speed to combine. Increase the speed to maximum and whisk for a minute. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Whisk again until you have firm peaks — about a minute more.
  2. Transfer the frosting to a large piping bag fitted with a plain round tip. Put the lemon curd in another piping bag.
  3. Add a little frosting on your cake stand or platter to secure the bottom cake layer. Pipe a ring of frosting around the perimeter of the cake. Pipe a ring of lemon curd on the inside, then another ring of frosting, and finally a dot of curd. Dot the curd with fresh blueberries.
  4. Repeat this until you’ve used all the layers. Add a large dollop of frosting on the top of the cake and use an offset spatula or pastry scraper to spread it on top of the cake in an even layer and then down the sides of the cake.
  5. Add more frosting to the sides of the cake as needed and use a pastry scraper to smooth it so that the layers are showing through for a naked cake effect. This is best done using a cake turntable. Chill the cake for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Put the white chocolate and heavy cream in a bowl and microwave in 10-second bursts until it starts to melt. Stir until completely smooth and glossy. Add a small amount of gel food coloring (or combinations of colors) until you achieve the desired shade. I used Americolor in electric pink, purple, and blue.
  7. Leave the ganache to cool — put in the fridge for 20 minutes if you’re in a hurry.
  8. Use a spoon or a squeeze bottle to add a little ganache near the edge of the top so that it drips down the sides. Test a small amount first to see how it drips down the cake so you can control the effect. Once you’re happy with it, add drips down the side of the entire cake.
  9. Fill the top of the cake with the ganache, starting at the center and moving outward. Chill the cake until the ganache is almost set before adding your decorations. It’s best to add any fresh fruit etc. at the last minute before you’re ready to present the cake.
  10. Artfully arrange fresh fruit — figs, blackberries, pomegranate seeds, and cherries — over the top of the cake. Add a few sprigs of rosemary for a rustic touch and prepare to wow your guests!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease four six-inch cake tins. Line the bottoms with greaseproof paper, grease again, and dust with flour. Shake out any excess.

Put the flour, sugar, ground almonds, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade or in the bowl of a stand mixer. Pulse or mix briefly to combine. Add the cubed butter and pulse or mix again until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.

Artfully arrange fresh fruit — figs, blackberries, pomegranate seeds, and cherries — over the top of the cake. Add a few sprigs of rosemary for a rustic touch, and prepare to wow your guests!

The cakes can be prepared up to two days in advance and kept, well wrapped, at room temperature. Once the cake is filled, it is best consumed on the same day. Make sure you add the fruit, or any other decorations, just before you’re ready to present the cake to your guests.

Keiko Agena Revealed Which 'Gilmore Girls' Costars She Actually Keeps In Touch With

Gilmore Girls fans can all agree that, despite how much we love the show, Lane Kim (Keiko Agena) deserved WAY better. But Keiko admits that even though Lane's treatment on GG leaves a lot to be desired (starting with the fact that Lane is Korean American and Keiko is Japanese American), it was still a special role.

Keep reading to see which Gilmore Girls costars Keiko Agena talks to the most!

Keiko Agena has a complicated relationship with 'Gilmore Girls' character Lane Kim.

Saeed Adyani/Netflix

“I think what [the role] was for people was different than what it was for me,” she tells Juliet Litman on an episode of the Dear Felicity rewatch podcast (via People). “In a weird way, I feel like I want to honor the experience that people had from the show, and what it meant to them, especially young Asian people, because I get that comment a lot, about what it was like for them to see someone like that on screen.”

And it's no surprise that as much as Gilmore Girls viewers love Lane, Keiko "[loves] her too. I can tell, when I meet someone who knows Gilmore Girls or who loves Lane, it's like, I recognize that love. I see that you love that person."

But it's possible to hold two conflicting emotions at the same time, and although Lane Kim was an incredibly special role at the time, there are some things Keiko would do differently today. “The best thing is to have a Korean American writer [and a] Korean American actor,” she says. “I don't think that that role, cast that way, would happen today. But at that time, in 2000, it was such a different time that I definitely know I wouldn't have said no or pulled myself out of that situation at that time...Now it's just a mix of just having gratitude for having gone through that experience and having that experience.”

Keiko Agena also keeps in touch with two very special 'Gilmore Girls' costars!

And one aspect of Gilmore Girls that Keiko Agena is thankful for is her relationship with the Gilmore Girls cast! And there are two costars in particular she frequently keeps in contact with: John Cabrera (who played Brian) and Sean Gunn (who starred as Kirk).

“There is this kind of lovely nostalgia for that time, and yet also we have years since then,” she says. “I [have] gone to both of their weddings. Our friendship is part Gilmore Girls and appreciation for that crazy time, and then part just like a million other things that are just like friends.”

I was totally surprised to learn she keeps in contact with John and Sean (supposedly) more regularly than Alexis Bledel, but it makes sense when you remember Keiko, John, and Sean are all around the same age — and Alexis is 7 years younger. Hopefully we get another Gilmore Girls reunion to see our favorite television BFF's reunite!
