Elizabeth Olsen is opening up about what it was really like growing up as the younger sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and it turns out her earliest audience didn’t exactly have a choice.

In a new interview with The Times of London, the “WandaVision” star joked that her famous twin sisters were essentially obligated to sit through her many childhood performances. “They were forced to watch all my plays my whole life and go to my dance performances,” she said, calling her upbringing in a celebrity household “pretty chaotic.”

Mary-Kate and Ashley, who shot to fame as toddlers on “Full House” as Michelle Tanner, eventually stepped away from acting to focus on fashion. Her on-screen sister Jodie Sweetin, who play Stephanie Tanner, revealed that one twin didn’t like acting as a child star. But Elizabeth says she never turned to them for career advice when she launched her own Hollywood path.

“No,” she admitted when asked whether her sisters coached her. “We’re just a supportive family. It feels irrelevant to talk about it after 15 years of working.”

Still, Elizabeth remembers wrestling with the idea of becoming an actor at all. Growing up in Los Angeles, she said, made the dream of entering showbiz feel “foolish.” And in her early auditioning years, she briefly thought about distancing herself from the Olsen name altogether.

In a 2021 interview with Glamour UK, she recalled wanting to go by Elizabeth Chase, her middle name, because she didn’t want to be associated with her big sisters.

“I guess I understood what nepotism was like inherently as a 10-year-old. I don’t know if I knew the word, but there is some sort of association of not earning something that I think bothered me at a very young age. It had to do with my own insecurities, but I was 10. So I don’t know how much I processed, but I did think, ‘I’m going to be Elizabeth Chase when I become an actress.'”

Still, Elizabeth credits her sisters with teaching her one invaluable lesson: the power of saying no.

“It became really empowering,” she said. “For women, it’s a really important word.”
