Nylon August 2008 : Mischa Barton by Taki Bibelas

[Jacque Marcel]

She's a total has-been. The cover looks really fake on all parts. What next, Tara Reid for September's cover?

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

i really like the cover

[gossiping]

I really like this cover, the music part looks good too.

[girlinquestion]

I like the simplicity but I don't like the styling at all.
And there's always these big 'exposed' stories when Mischa's on the cover of magazines and it's never normally that interesting.
But maybe it'll tell us what she's been doing for the last 3 years..?

[SusanSuperstar]

I love this!!!!!

[Kimkhuu]

It's not like Nylon is known for great cover casting anyways.

[silviegoeswild]

Ugh, why Mischa? Anyone else I would have liked it.

I agree with the stomach opinion...how much cooler would the cover be if it was just a tight shot from the shoulders above??

I prefer to see Mischa than Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears. But I have to agree about her talent. We see her more as a model than an actress.

The cover is cool.

The only issue I have with Mischa being on the cover is that she's already been on one, fairly recently. Come on, Nylon, surely there's got to be somebody new to feature.

And the denim issue is usually my least favorite.

she really is, and she's such a bad actress... her facial expression on this cover is awful, but the picture as a whole is not that bad, i mean, i thought it would be much worse...

[harmonious]

i really like how she's posed.

[sedirea]

I dont like this at all, how awkward.

[yalil]

Mischa looks good, but she is so over and dated. Looks like somebody there wishes it were 2002 still.

Hello, Nylon, if you've run out of hipsters for next months cover: there are numerous models out there who are recognizable now, Maggie Gyllenhaal has The Dark Knight coming out, Zooey Deschanel just released a record, Amanda Seyfreid also has a movie coming out.

my thoughts exactly. I thought she was totally over.

she looks good.. if it wasn't for the MISCHA! part of the cover, I would've entirely succumbed to it. she's a good model.. when anonymous.

Nylon really needs new blood behind their desks IMO.. everything from their music taste, covers, 'icons', fashion sense.. it all seems like decided by people over 40 or kids under 15.. no big difference.. of course there are exceptions but there's generally a poor quality of selectiveness among these crowds. they tend not to discriminate and embrace it all with genuine desperation..
