Mary-Kate Olsen is still reportedly refusing to be interviewed over Heath Ledger’s accidental drug overdose, unless she receives immunity from prosecution.

I have to wonder what exactly she knows, because you don’t hear of people asking for immunity unless they’ve done something wrong….right?

According to the New York Post, she refuses to speak and her lawyer claims she won’t be interviewed “unless she gets immunity, exercising her constitutional rights.”

With all the early Oscar buzz surrounding Heath Ledger's performance in the highly anticipated new Batman movie, all eyes will be on the Joker when "The Dark Knight" hits theaters this week. But if the comparisons between the late Mr. Ledger's portrayal of the comic book supervillain to Jack Nicholson's "Clown Prince of Crime" from 1989's "Batman" starts to enter film-nerd territory, know that there is an easier way to decipher the differences. Plain and simple: Their makeup is different—and according to Poppy King, color expert and author of "Lessons of a Lipstick Queen: Finding and Developing the Great Idea that can Change your Life," that's all you need to know in order to unlock the distinctions between the characters' inner psyches. Jack Nicholson

The Mouth: "Nicholson is the power woman's Joker," Poppy says. "He way overdoes the lip liner—very eighties."

The Man: "Although he appears to be so put-together, underneath those magnificently painted lips is a debauched and unfettered lust for power. He is so vain that he has lost any sense of right and wrong, and his desire to control and a longing for approval turn very ugly and psychotic." Heath Ledger

The Mouth: "Heath is the post-post-feminist's Joker. He is so deconstructionist with his red lipstick, it almost comes right back around to the Renaissance!"

The Man: "He has a total disregard for society and his red lipstick style is indicative of his desire to shock. It's an unmistaken visual reference to his bloodlust and his loss of sanity that seeks for nothing other than revenge on normality. He uses his lips to denote the primitive urge for man to attack his fellow man, and his lips show no shame or pretense in that."

Both In touch Weekly and the National Enquirer have stories this week talking about Mary-Kate Olsen returning to her hard partying ways. Both magazines cite the night MK left Foxtail and clearly fell down in front of the cameras as evidence.

Apparently this spiral has been happening since the death of her friend Heath Ledger, an event she refuses to talk about publicly–even to Elle. Also, the allusions in Elle to the fact she and Ashley fight quite a bit, her recent absence from the CFDA Awards and her relationship with hard-partyer Nate Lowman are all cause for concern.

I’ll admit, I’m a bit worried about MK, but only because we haven’t seen much of her at events or even in paparazzi shots. It’s totally possible she’s been keeping a low-profile and working hard on her acting career. What do you think?

Christian Bale, who is currently promoting his new movie “The Dark Knight”, sat down to talk about working with Heath Ledger. Here’s what he had to say:

He was incredibly intense in his performance but incredibly mellow and laid-back. Certainly there was this great anarchistic streak to it–just getting dirtier than anybody’s envisioned the Joker before. This character has power because he has no limits–absolutely nothing to lose.

You can read the rest of the interview here; and of course, here’s the Dark Knight trailer:
