Mischa Barton Photos & Pics Archive

Someone's a bit crotchety these days! Perhaps she's still bitter that her CW show got cancelled after only two episodes?

Yesterday Mischa Barton was spotted shopping in NYC, and the former it girl rocked her very best granny couture dress and hat with a pair of high heels. Whatever happened to those sexy outfits she was wearing earlier this year?

Guess her brief time portraying a super-model on the short-lived series The Beautiful Life taught her nothing about how to strike a pose, cuz with her slumpy shoulders and collapsed neck, Tyra would definitely kick her out of the running to be ANTM.

At least she learned one trick when she gave us the cold shoulder in her ill-fitting blue gown:

Show off the most attractive part of yourself -- in this case, her back. Maybe there's hope for her yet! Well, as long as she just keeps her back to the camera!

Troubled starlet and out-of-work actress Mischa Barton has gone straight from The Beautiful Life to the wasted life, partying at a LES bar with Young Veins' front man Ryan Ross.

A spy tells the NY Daily News that the model slash actress was buying shots for her pals (including Ross) at Randolph on Wednesday night.

"She had a drink in hand all night," said the source, "and she and Ryan looked very friendly."

Unemployed actresses (let alone ex-rehabbers) should probably not get into the habit of buying their new rockstar boyfriend drinks!

After only two episodes, the CW has pulled the plug on Ashton Kutcher's model drama, The Beautiful Life.

THR says that production was shut down Friday on the series, which has been pulled from the schedule effective immediately.

Last Wednesday's episode which only pulled a .5 rating, was seen by just 1 million people.

No word on what the net will do with the 5 other episodes already in the can, but we seriously hope that Mischa finds another gig soon. Being unemployed may just drive her over the edge!

Talk about a stunning transformation!

Yesterday we snapped Mischa Barton before and after visiting the hair and makeup department for The Beautiful Life, and the actress looked like a totally different person. And I'm not sure how she squeezed herself into that sexy green bandage dress, but I'm loving the results...keep it up Mischa!

And speaking of amazing, how fantastic does 46-year-old Elle MacPherson look? They don't call her the body for nothing!

Mischa Barton attended the Metropolitan Opera's opening night gala in NYC, and while she's looking great, what about that eyesore of a dress? Maybe it would have been better if it was solid black, but I swear, if you stare at it long enough, it becomes slightly less annoying. I love the cut and the sleeves, but those stripes just seem like a little too much at this hour of the morning...

Eh, judging by her expression, she's over it, but Mischa Barton did stop by It's On With Alexa Chung at MTV Studios in NYC to chat about her new show. Even though she looked a little uh, out of it, we can't help but rave about The Beautiful Life!

When we watched the series premiere last night, it wasn't nearly as gripping as a hit show like Dexter or Breaking Bad, but we're definitely going to tune in next Wednesday, and we cannot WAIT to see what kind of trouble Mischa will cause as the pill-popping supermodel Sonja Stone!

Mischa Barton was also spotted leaving the Marc Jacobs afterparty in NYC last night, and the troubled starlet looks like she could have used some of Lilo's Red Bull! Er wait, that's not a good idea!

Setting aside her tired expression, she did look pretty fabulous, right? This outfit isn't amazing, but I love the lacey shirt and she seems to have spent some time doing her hair and makeup, so at least she put some thought into her appearance.

But maybe she should go easy on the Fashion Week parties?

I definitely prefer her in the black - that pink dress just reminds me of taking Pepto Bismol! Sorry about it...

Mischa Barton has been a busy bee in NYC lately, going to fashion shows and The Beautiful Life premiere, where she had to be seen side-by-side with producer Ashton's wife Demi Moore. Who looks better?

Check out Demi in casual wear below:

Effortlessly gorge!

...but she still looks pretty damn amazing!

The Beautiful Life star was photographed in Bryant Park yesterday outside of the Herve Leger show, and though she flashed us some bewildered faces, we're def digging the dress! Who knew Mischa still had it?

Okay, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore are both pretty beautiful... but Mischa Barton? These days, I'm not so sure!

All three attended the premiere of the CW's The Beautiful Life in NYC Saturday night, and while Mischa is the one who should've wowed on the red carpet, Demi did instead! Maybe it's just the pink gown I don't like.

Either way, Demi's in her 40s and Mischa in her 20s. Something is not right here!

Juuust kidding! Obviously she has other friends than just a cat. Right? You never know with Mischa Barton!

The TV starlet isn't looking so hot here, though, texting on her phone and having a cig over lunch in the Big Apple. The beautiful life? I dunno about that!

Yesterday Mischa Barton was snapped on the set of The Beautiful Life in NYC, and the troubled actress seemed to mimic the crazy model she plays on the show, texting and puffing away on several cigarettes as she waited for shooting to start. Hmm, think this role comes naturally for her?

Mischa Barton did an interview with Time Out New York, and the troubled starlet insists that she's doing just fine, and the whole psych ward thing was just a "tough spot" in her life. Uh huh!

Mischa lays it out for us:

Here’s what happened: Before the show started, I was traveling abroad for contract stuff and I went through a terrible surgery - a wisdom tooth surgery, all four removed. It was a nightmare. I’ve never had surgery before - it all went wrong and I had to have a second surgery and it almost delayed shooting because it was a nightmare to me, because I couldn’t deal with the thought of not getting there on time. So with the travel, and surgery and prep for the show - it was hell.

Is this when you were checked into Cedars?

Yeah, I went through a tough spot where everything compounded on me, and it was like a perfect storm, like everything was happening to me at once. The show, travel and then this fairly routine surgery that went wrong - it’s still just healing. But I had to get through it without proper painkillers because I couldn’t take those during work. So it’s been a nightmare.

How did you end up in a psychiatric hospital?

I was down in the dumps about everything there for a while. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom about things and have to get the most stressed-out just to feel better again. I got completely stressed-out and couldn’t handle everything, and now I feel really in control.

Hmm, does anyone believe her?

Mischa Barton has been known to break the law and some major fashion rules, but she committed the ultimate crime last night when she brought along her cuter, better dressed TBL co-star Ashley Madekwe to the "I Heart Ronson" event in NYC!

Ashley's dress was reminiscent of that sexy black number Megan Fox wore a few months ago on Letterman, while Mischa's outfit looked like scraps of fabric and yarn from my grandmother's sewing basket.

Time to hire a new stylist honey...

NOT!

I can't take this. What happened to MB? Marissa Cooper would never wear something so unflattering! Okay, maybe she would, but she was way prettier than Mischa is now. The costume designers on The Beautiful Life set must really hate her!

Such a pretty face. See, we're not only showing you the bad pics of M. We still have high hopes for her!

Whoops!

Yesterday Mischa Barton was spotted going for a stroll in NYC, and we would feel bad for her, but it was 100% her choice to free boob it. Should she be allowed to do this? I mean, would she even pass the pencil test?
