Mischa Barton

Great in Matthiew Williamson, ok in that black and white outfit and bad in that brown/ something dress.
 
It's so obvious that Rachel Zoe was responsible for some of Mischa's best looks.

For me, that blonde hair ruins everything! She needs to have brownish hair again.

She's also lost her glow, no? Too much smoking I guess :innocent:
 
Mischa on italian magazine CHI (9 July)



I'M A ROMANTIC, ACCORDING TO BOCCACCIO
Cannes, July
"A journey into innocence, romance and idealism towards the passion, to discover the funniest side of sex". That's how Mischa Barton, the young actress who owes her popularity to the TV series The O.C., defines her intense adventure on the set of the movie Decameron Pie, one of the films we're looking forward the most in the next season. Movie will land in italian cinemas in October, produced by Dino De Lauretiis and Roberto Cavalli, who also designed all the costumes. The cast includes Hayden Christensen, Tim Roth and Anna Galiena as well. In this contemporary transposition of Boccaccio's masterpiece, which was filmed in Florence, Bracciano, the countryside around Siena and the studios of Cinecitta', Mischa Barton plays the role of the most sensual object of desire: Pampinea Anastagi, heiress of a rich family from Florence...a city devastated with the so-called 'Black Death' because of the plague epidemic in 1348.
"My Decameron Pie is a novel set out of time, dealing with love, sex, adventure, freedom, rebellion, dreams: all topics that young people have got to face up, nowadays as much as in the past" explains producer D. De Laurentiis.
"My character is very chast and romantic...you won't ever see me naked, not in one scene" tells the actress who, in this modern fairy tale where love, eros and rules infringement mix together, falls in love with the charming Lorenzo De Lamberti played by Hayden Christensen (Star Wars). "On the set, I succeed in seducing the handsome Lorenzo with a kiss, just one kiss".
A very hot kiss, that apparently left its mark even after the shooting was over. "No love story was born on the set. Every time you have to kiss one of your co-stars because it's on the script, they automatically assume you're dating them". That's the comment of the actress who's been hanging out for some months with musician Taylor Locke from Rooney, after she had been single for a while for breaking up with Whitestarr's rocker Cisco Adler (they dated from August 2005 to February 2007). Barton has recently followed her new boyfriend on tour all around Europe, like the most passionate groupie ever. And Europe itself has become her favourite destination in the last few months. The actress, born in London from an Irish mother she loves to death, settled in NY when she was just 5...although she has lately run away from the temptations of Hollywood (where she owns an amazing mansion on the hills of Beverly Hills) after that sad December, 27th when she was arrested for DUI, marjuana possession and driving with an expired license. She got away with a 1700$ fine, 3 years of probation and a 3-month special class about alcohol awareness she must attend. "Of course I am 100% responsible of my actions...I mean I am not perfect and I do not intend doing something so stupid again..." she comments.
After being processed, Mischa Barton flew to Paris. "I've always wished to live there!" confesses the actress, who will soon star next to Bruce Willis on Assassination of a High School President. Paris looks like the perfect city for an actress who's also become a style icon throughout the years. "I love to root out vintage items in some old markets. I mix them with designer clothes. But my mom's the real stylish member of the family. She's Irish but she grew up in the swinging London of the Sixties and was a photographer for a long time" tells us Mischa, who is about to launch her first handbag collection, completely designed by the actress herself and inspired by the vintage suggestions she gathered travelling all around the world. Her creations will be available from this July in UK stores.

Mischa Barton interview

Mischa16_e_b531446b815d841fa57ff7ac29559923.jpg


We're sitting in a busy restaurant at The Berkeley hotel in Knightsbridge, London. Mischa has a cold, probably due to her travel schedule – she's just flown in from Barcelona, where she's been promoting the Spanish release of Closing the Ring with the film's director, Sir Richard Attenborough.

Mischa Barton is famous. Maybe you've asked yourself why a 22-year-old actress who made her name in an American teen soap opera is so famous, why she can command magazine covers on either side of the Atlantic and beyond. The reason is simple: few other young actresses of her generation have profited - and often suffered - quite so much from the internet explosion and the exposure.

'You know,' she says in this surprisingly husky voice, betraying her roots (part west London, part New York, and nothing like the LA vowels you'd imagine), 'People label me, but I don't care.'

The gossip websites have a love-hate relationship with Mischa Barton. Rarely a day goes by without a celeb blog passing comment on her fashion, or monitoring her weight.

Mischa doesn't read her press but everything gets filtered through eventually.

'I'm not really sure what people's preconceived notions are. I don't look at the gossip websites – it's unhealthy and I think it's a large part of what drives people in LA crazy. I'm an actress, I'm in this to find the next great project. The fact is, I'm having a real life and being a normal human being.'

When asked whether she was surprised at the press attention surrounding her arrest [for DUI] she laughs, 'I didn't know people cared.' The case is still pending at the time of our interview (Barton has since been sentenced to three years unsupervised probation after pleading 'no contest' to drink-driving), so she is limited in how much she can say – but her regret appears genuine.

'It was a low point in my life. The truth of the matter is, I was being irresponsible to begin with – I moved to LA and never got a licence,' she explains. 'I don't know, it was just an awful low for me. I apologized - and you have to just hope that that's enough. People make mistakes, you know?'

The OC, billed as the new Beverly Hills 90210, ran for a total of four seasons and was broadcast in over 50 countries around the world. Mischa Barton was 16 when she joined the show, 20 when she left. She'd had a successful career in theatre and film prior to the show.

She has fond memories of The OC, but will only return to television,
'when I understand it better. Because I didn't understand it. When you're 16, you don't know what the hell you're getting into. LA was a shock to the system.'

Mischa Barton is undoubtedly an actress of true potential, yet you can’t help but wonder if, ultimately, it will be she or the internet gossipmongers who decide her future. And that depends on whether Mischa Barton is prepared to change enough to relinquish the kind of fame that has made her famous. Let's hope she makes the right decisions.

This is an edited version of the full interview, which features in Marie Claire's bumper 20th birthday September issue, out now.
