Remember Mischa Barton, the hard-partying, hollow-faced DUI arrestee who lost any semblance of normality long ago? Well guess what? Turns out she's mentally unwell. Mischa Barton has been placed under a 5150 involuntary psychiatric hold and taken to the same hospital that Britney Spears was after her meltdown last year. It's thought that action was taken after Mischa made a 911 call. The good news is that, like Britney Spears, Mischa Barton is now getting the help she clearly needs. The bad news is that, like Britney Spears, she might now make a rubbish album and go on a dead-eyed global tour.
Good news! Mischa Barton - the thunderingly pointless star of The OC and little else - won't be going to jail for that time she drove around blasted on pot and booze.
According to reports, Mischa Barton decided to enter a no contest plea to her DUI charges, which means her only punishment will be three years' probation, three months of alcohol education classes and a small fine.
On reflection, this is probably the best result Mischa Barton could have hoped for. By avoiding jail, Mischa has freed up a large block of time she's already sworn to spend furthering the advancement of shoddy direct-to-DVD bargain bin movies that no normal person would ever dream of watching. And the world thanks her for that.
Mischa Barton isn't just that one-time partly famous actress who was in The OC and nothing else at all after that, like you think she is.
No. Because Mischa Barton is also a criminal. That's right - a criminal just like Al Capone and Lil' Kim.
Mischa Barton has just been charged with DUI, driving without a license and pot possession following her arrest just after Christmas. That's bad enough for Mischa Barton, but just imagine how poor Hayden Panettiere feels being the only skinny attention-seeking celebrity not to be charged with driving like some sort of impaired dickwad. Don't worry Hayden! We're on our way! And we're bringing the elephant tranquilisers! You will not be left behind!
