The "Full House" stars were eating with friends at New York's packed Serafina on Valentine's Day when the incident occurred. According to Serafina co-owner Fabio Granato, the Olsen minder became agitated after Granato refused to move out of the way to accommodate the party.

It's sure nice to have your own security guards handy when dealing with celebrities like these.

As my roommate in college would say about the high school girls in town: "She's gonna be a fox" (or in this case, "They're gonna be foxes")

I believe they're 17.


Not that I'm keeping track or anything.

Broken Newz used to have a countdown but they went under. No I don't keep that bookmarked, I had to Google it.

They're either 18 or just on the verge.

Why the heck do these girls need a body guard? They are not the Bush Twins. These kids need to get a life not a body guard.

Well, apparently the girls were just fine, enjoying their visit to the restaurant. It was the beef they brought with them that was the problem. But Guido and Franco, the restaurant's bouncers handled the problem, I guess. Fugettaboudit.

They're multimillionaires--in the hundred-megabuck range.

They're worth kidnapping.

Granato said that after being pushed by the bodyguard, one of Serafina's own security guards escorted the man to the door

It just seems like common sense. When in New York, do not go into a place called Serafina's and hassle it's owner named Fabio Granato.

Unless you want the bodyguards to take you outside.

There a certain groups (primarily pre-teens) who would trample the Bush twins to get near the Olsen twins.

"Why the heck do these girls need a body guard? They are not the Bush Twins. "

That's silly. They're worth millions, so they're prime kidnapping risks. They're also pretty astoundingly good-looking, famous, and no doubt have stalkers. I'd say they definitely need bodyguards. It's just that they need discreet ones, not buttheads.
