71 Times Mary-Kate & Ashley Smiled Without Teeth

Fact: I am and have been obsessed with the Olsen twins since I was a little kid, so I know that seeing them smile in a photo is, like, almost as rare as a Lochness monster sighting. It's not that they don't smile at all — we've seen them smile on TV or in interviews, but when it comes to having their picture taken? Good luck getting them to flash those pearly whites. Don't believe me? You're about to get some proof handed to you that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen never smile with teeth. Proof in the form of several dozen photos. Things just got real.

The times that Mary-Kate and Ashley have smiled in photos are few and far between, and though it has happened, we're far more used to seeing their toothless pouts. I remember being in high school and hearing that the twins got their signature pout by saying the word "prune" before they smile. I may or may not have tried this in all my pictures that year.

No matter what way they go about nailing that perfect pout, you can almost always expect to see it in lieu of a toothy grin. And hey, whatever works for them! You do you, MKA. You look amaze either way.

But just in case you need some extra proof, settle in, because here are 71 times Mary-Kate and Ashley smiled without teeth.
