ASHLEY Olsen and her boyfriend, actor Justin Bartha, hardly came up for air during a recent dinner at Serafina on East 61st Street, where they were holding hands and making out all through the meal. “She was all over him,” said our spy. “Another girlfriend of hers was also at the table. Ashley was very nice to everyone, but seemed more occupied with her boyfriend than anything else.” The tiny Olsen downed two Bloody Marys on the terrace and ate a little bit of spaghetti.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are gearing up to take the literary world by storm – or at least glam it up a little – with their upcoming coffee-table book Influence, and PEOPLE has a preview of its two covers.

One version of the 272-page hardcover book – due out Oct. 28 – will feature Mary-Kate on the cover, with Ashley on the back, while the other version swaps their positions.

“Ashley and Mary-Kate take readers on a journey through their celebrated young lives, pausing to reflect on what has helped shape them into who they are today,” the book’s publisher said in a statement. “They interviewed 20 people and wrote brief essays about each other. In each interview, the girls explore what inspired the interviewee.”

Those interviewed include fashion designers Karl Lagerfeld, Diane Von Furstenburg, John Galliano and Christian Louboutin, as well as model-actress Lauren Hutton.

“We interviewed the people who have inspired us, with the hope that they will inspire and teach others,” Mary-Kate said. “We want to explain culturally how ideas evolve.”

Chimed in Ashley: “We have filled Influence with the most interesting, challenging, creative people we know – the ones who helped pave the way for us and our generation.”

The book’s artwork includes photos and drawings provided by the interviewees, as well as never-before-seen photos from the 22-year-old twins’ private collections.

The duo made their first public appearance together Monday night at the Cinema Society screening of “Trumbo,” about blacklisted Hollywood writer Dalton Trumbo, who penned “Spartacus” and “Roman Holiday.” “They huddled close together most of the night,” said our spy. The pint-size twin and Bartha partied after at Tribeca Cinemas with Josh Lucas, Amy Sacco, Kelly Bensimon and her date Maximiliano Palacio, and new lovebirds Joan Allen and Shawn Diamond, who locked lips on the red carpet.

Although Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are fiercely private, details about the twins’ lives are slowly emerging. The latest: how the two achieve their signature smiles.

“Every time they pose and smile, they say the word ‘prune,’” a source close to the girls told OK!.

Another source close to the Olsens could not confirm the precise word they use as their smile trigger, but says their smiles are keys to their identity. “It could be true (that they say prune) but unfortunately I can’t say — they like to keep their personal lives personal,” said the source. “They do care about their smiles though. Mary-Kate has slightly thinner lips and more of a playful grin, while Ashley tends to go for a full-on pout. It has been the obvious way to tell them apart for years.”

In other Olsen news, Ben Kingsley opened up about working with 22-year-old Mary-Kate in a profile of the twins in Elle magazine. Kingsley and Mary-Kate share some racy scenes in their upcoming film, “The Wackness” (case in point: Kingsley, who is 64, is straddled by Mary-Kate in a phone booth in one scene).

“She was a joy to work with… I was quite taken by her, especially how astute she is about art. We spent a lot of time between takes talking about her art collection,” Kingsley told Elle. The film is scheduled for release July 3.

FRIENDS of starlet Ashley Olsen are a little concerned over the fashionista’s recent interest in handsome “National Treasure” actor Justin Bartha.
After Page Six reported the duo had a romantic dinner at Patsy’s in Midtown, stories surfaced of his strange behavior and angry antics with a former girlfriend.

“He’s a little bit psycho-y,” said one source who knows Bartha. “He’s a really cute, nice guy, but he was always jumping out of the shot when Lydia Hearst [Bartha’s former girlfriend of a year] was being photographed.

“It’s a little strange that he would go after a girl [Olsen] who is always having her photo taken,” the source added.

We’re told that after Hearst ended her relationship with Bartha, “he didn’t take it well” and even went so far as to “scream at her and call her a bitch” at an Oscar party this year.

“Lydia broke up with him in August 2007, and at the In Style party during the Oscars in February 2008, Justin went up to her and yelled at her in front of everyone,” said an insider who witnessed the incident.

When the couple broke up, Bartha was evidently crushed. “Lydia was so young, and he was just too intense about her,” the source said. “Justin is still really p - - - ed that she broke up with him in August.”

Bartha is gaining status while here in New York shooting “The Rebound” with Catherine Zeta-Jones, and has been avoiding the cameras so far - but that’s likely to change if he takes up with Olsen.

Hearst, meanwhile, is in Vienna for the Life Ball, where she’ll walk in the Agent Provocateur show. She could not be reached, but her rep confirmed the incident at the In Style party and told us, “There are no hard feelings between Lydia and Justin.”

Bartha’s reps didn’t return our multiple calls and e-mails.

The very territorial lesbian Lindsay Lohan lashes out when anyone gets near her precious Samantha Ronson. The two were partying in NYC on friday night at the Beatrice Inn when Ashley Olsen chatted up Sam. This triggered Lindsay to attack the Olsen twin with the words ” Get your 15 year old Full House ass away from my girlfriend.” Poor Ashley! You’ve been warned!!!

The following night at the Hawaiian Tropic Zone, it is reported that Lindsay was acting upset when Sam didn’t give her enough attention, but Samantha was busy spinning records all night and kept focused. Holy “needy” batman!

Hugh Hefner wants Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to pose for Playboy.

The 81-year-old men’s magazine mogul - who originally asked the twins to model for him when they turned 18 three years ago - but was turned down - hopes the girls will accept his invitation to appear in a special June edition of his adult publication to mark their 22nd birthday.

A source said: “Hugh thinks the twins are every young man’s fantasy. But it might not be that easy getting them agree to pose for Playboy. They’re all about high-end fashion these days. They want to do Vogue.”

The legendary lothario also wants Lindsay Lohan to appear in his magazine - and recreate Marilyn Monroe’s famous naked swim from her ‘Something’s Got to Give’ movie.

Lohan recently stripped off in a New York magazine shoot to pay homage to Monroe. The racy shoot proved so popular that the magazine’s website crashed under the massive volume of hits.

Lohan, 21, paired with Monroe photographer Bert Stern to recreate the famous 1962 photo shoot of the blonde bombshell at the Bel Air hotel.

“Now we hear Lindsay is tempted to continue her nude homage to MM,” Liz Smith wrote in the New York Post earlier this week.

“Playboy’s Hugh Hefner has offered the young star the chance to re-create Marilyn’s famed nude swim from the unfinished film ‘Something’s Got To Give.’”

Add author to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s resume.

The 21-year-old twins — who topped last year’s Forbes Top Earning Stars Under 21 list with an estimated fortune of $40 million each — are publishing a coffee table book, Influence, through Penguin Young Readers Group.

It will feature “the most interesting, challenging, creative people we know — the ones who helped pave the way for us and our generation,” Ashley said in a statement.

Among them: shoe guru Christian Louboutin, actress Lauren Hutton, photographer Terry Richardson and writer Bob Colacello.

“Ashley and I interviewed the people who have inspired us, with the hope that they will inspire and teach others,” Mary-Kate said.

The book — due this fall — will also feature exclusive photos of the twins and never-before-seen interviews with the two.

“They looked like a couple and they were making out,” a witness tells Us.

But an Olsen insider denies the duo are back on: “They aren’t back together. They’re friends.”

MARY- Kate and Ashley Olsen are groveling at the non-leather shoes of PETA after the animal rightists began a nasty campaign against the tiny fur-wearing twins. “The Olsens want to make peace with PETA,” one snitch told Page Six. The animal rightists dubbed them the “Trollson Twins,” named “Hairy-Kate” and “Trashley.” The Olsens’ rep had “no comment.”

THE animal-loving freaks at PETA are training their hate-beams on the Olsen twins, whom they’ve dubbed “The Trollsen Twins.” PETA is furious they’ve “ignored pleas to stop wearing fur and using it in their fashion collection.” The group is unveiling a campaign against the “fur fiends” — Mary- Kate (”Hairy Kate,” above) and Ashley (”Trashley”) — with a tag line: “Fur Is Worn by Beautiful Animals and Ugly People.” The Trollsen Twins poster will be unveiled today at their Walk of Fame star in LA.

ODD couple alert: Ashley Olsen has a new, older man. The 21-year-old twin showed up to the Rose Bar at the Gramercy Park Hotel Monday night with Tory Burch’s ex, Lance Armstrong, 36. Our bar spy said, “They came together with a group of friends. Ashley drank red wine, sat on his lap and they were making out all night. They left together around 2 a.m.” Armstrong has been spending more time in town since he bought a home here. Another source said, “He tried to make Tory happy when they were dating by buying a place here, but she couldn’t deal with him not actually living in the same city, so they broke up.” Olsen’s rep didn’t return calls.
