Your dad just got laid off and your mom says they’re renting your old bedroom out to migrant bankers. Whatever, Mischa Barton is BACK ON TOP! From Hollywood Reporter:

“The O.C.” alumna Mischa Barton has been tapped to star in CW’s drama pilot “A Beautiful Life.”

The project, from CBS Par, revolves around a group of models living together in a co-ed residence in New York.

Barton will play Sonja, a supermodel and veteran of the high-fashion circuit who is struggling to keep on top and is in danger of slipping.

Barton can bring personal experience to the role as she has modeled for such companies as Calvin Klein, bebe stores, Aeropostale, Monsoon Accessorize, Dooney & Bourke and JC (Jeans and Clothes).

I definitely think that Mischa Barton can bring her experience as someone who is struggling to keep on top and is in danger of slipping to the show. And for season two she can bring her experience as someone who’s slipped to the point of being a secondary reference in a joke about Cisco Adler’s balls. She really should not be a star in a show about models. She should be a star in a show about ACCURSED DEMON SKULLZ. (Zingafornia, here we zing!) Seriously, though, look at her face. Whoops. She will work for no food.

Also, this is so obvious, but:

Mischa Barton is pretty sure there’s a lot more to life than being really, really, ridiculously terrifying looking. And she plans on finding out what that is.

  1. Best. Videogum original LOL Manipulation video ever.

    It’s so sad that Imogen Heap and that song will forever be associated with The O.C.

  2. wha! a new show about privileged young kids with no other purpose besides being good looking and living in NY!? yes, TV, thank you.

  3. I am sort of aware that this person exists, but I’ve never actually seen anything she’s been in. And now I am glad of that, because that picture is FUCKING HIDEOUS.

  4. Was er picture taken immediately after she gazed upon the Ark of the Covenant?

    • Oh God, please let the opening theme song for Mischa’s new model show be hide and seek. Perhaps foreshadowing her character’s death by gasoline fight?

    my favorite part about mischa’s photo is that she’s wearing the hottest thing this season – eating disorders and / or adderall addiction!!!!

    even weirder – if you actually look at her photo, she is proactively sucking in her cheeks to make those cheekbones happen – witness the tendons sticking out on her neck on the right side.

    *public letter to mischa barton*

    that whif of “stardom” that you had when The OC was popular five years ago? remember that?? that should not dictate the sadly predicable downwards-trending arc of the rest of your life. you’re OK. go do something original.

    p.s. eat a steak sandwich.

  6. I love Mischa Barton so much. Her blog is my favorite. The entire tone is like “hey, you guys…” and she’s basically Marissa Cooper from the OC but in real life.

    My question is, does this mean that she’s NOT going to be in the remake of Melrose Place which just cast Ashlee Simpson? As of Wednesday she was in discussions for that. Look, I follow Mischa news and these things are important to me.

    she should take up eating as her job.

    But will her new role cut into the time she uses to suck in her cheeks?
