Duff signs with Thorne |

Hilary Duff's just made a deal with the devil. The devil, at least if you hate the Olsen twins, is Robert Thorne. Thorne, who just might have the worst hair in Hollywood, was responsible for saving the twins from the fate of child star obscurity. He made them into the multi-million dollar brand that they are now by creating the company, Dualstar for them. After being dismissed from Dualstar when the Olsens turned 18, the former CEO started his own firm with ex Dualstar VP, Greg Redlitz. Duff was the perfect choice as their first big client as she has a wide range products bearing her name, just like Mary-Kate and Ashley. "Robert is just the person to help me write the next chapter as an entertainer and a businesswoman," said Duff. Thorne plans to expand Hilary's star power by "ensur[ing] that everything Hilary does is the highest quality that it can be." Knowing Thorne's track record, that likely means tons of "high quality" Hilary t-shirts coming soon to a discount department store near you.
