the rise and fall of mary-kateandashley magazine

Last week, we reread the entire premiere issue of Mary-Kate and Ashley's fashion magazine from 2001, aptly titled "mary-kateandashley magazine." We discussed that the magazine mysteriously ended abruptly after 3 issues, but we had no idea why. So this week,  we consult with They Thought I Was You's resident Mary-Kate and Ashley historian, Derrick Dobson (@derricksdollcollection) to learn all about the rise and fall of this beloved magazine.Derrick explains to us what the online community thought this magazine would be before its premiere, the surprising controversy over the premiere issue's cover, and the reason why this beloved magazine's life was cut so tragically short.Did Dualstar ever offer anything to subscribers like Lani who paid for six and only received three? Derrick has that answer. Find us on Social Media!Instagram: @theythoughtiwasyouTikTok: @theythoughtiwasyouBecca: @beccarothLani: @laniharmsDerrick: @derricksdollcollectionThoughts/questions?
