Mischa has been known to carry most of her weight in her lower body area, and it looks like she may have gained a few extra pounds recently…? but overall she’s still looking pretty cute and healthy!

firrst!!
…
i thought in the first pic her legs looked way smaller…but then i saw the rest and yeah, they’re still her problem area :-/
but im happy for her, im glad she seems to be doing better…i feel like I can personally relate to all that she hs been through recnetly…
i like her outfit!
Colon.
her face looks different.
her body is cute though.. and I kind of like the outfit. =]
why is she famous? so unnattrative, horrible style and can’t act.
she is average sized…i wouldn’t call her chubby/fat but i’m sure some of you will. she looked better when she was thinner, like on the OC. wonder what she weighs now compared to then, hmm
dont understand why people care of her….nothing special
She’s cute but her thighs are so thick there.
I hate all of her clothes, but she has been looking SO MUCH BETTER lately!!!
Yeah, serious case of thunder thighs goin’ on here. There’s no definition in her legs. Her thighs, knees, calves and ankles are all the same size. It looks better when legs gradually get thinner from thighs on down. Hers do not do that.
Her face is definitely bloating up again
What a cute outfit. LOVE her jewelry.
horrible outfit..!
she used to be so pretty, shows what drugs and drinking do. She looks alert and awake tho so hopefully shes beginning to take better care of herself. she has gained but at least shes not scary thin anymore. still she needs to brush her hair or teeth or take a bath. for some reason she looks dirty but maybe shes a fan of the grunge look
she looks ok
I can’t stand her legs, but TAKE OUT THOSE CONTACTS.
She looks so weird like this.
Pretty girl…kinda looks like her teeth aren’t doing so great with all the drug use though.
mischa looks so sexy now, look at that butt
looking good!!! nice shoes
i cant belive everyone is so critical, she looks far better
She is just not a pretty girl I don’t even care if she is skinny or fat. Anyway she has a hard time to stay skinny as we can see.
She is incredibly pretty and has a cute figure. I like her sense of style and fashion. Yes, I’ve seen her looking better than this and this isn’t my favourite outfit of hers, but still, give the girl some credit. She looks good.
She looks about the same to me (not taking in to account those SHORT skinny periods she’s had recently), i wonder if she’s going to slim down for her show, it’s not like she has a model body now. I saw the 1. ep, and her character has had a baby, so that’s why it’s “ok” for her to be like that now. I think she looks good like this though.
I miss the old OC Mischa. She looked like a supermodel on that show.
Now she just looks like a trainwreck. She looks awful here!
Rian,
Can you please make it a rule that people who post comments with nothing but the word “first” will be banned?
For one thing, it’s extremely immature and annoying and secondly, it adds no constructive criticism to the discussion.
Thank you.
As for Mischa’s body, I think her teenage metabolism can no longer keep up with her and her lifestyle choices (binging and drugs perhaps) so it’s likely we’ll be seeing a lot of weight fluctuations from her in the future.
Honestly, the shape of her legs is the worst I’ve ever seen on a celebrity! Or pretty much on any person ever. Most unfortunate.
And no, there’s nothing she can do about it except cover them up. Which I wish she would.
Looks to m like she is still gaining. Overall, she looks so much better though, her hair and skin look so much healthier.
I have to wonder if it was difficult for her to stay so thin on the OC. At the time it seemed like she’s someone who is thin naturally (not anymore). I think she could make her current weight work for her if she’d get rid of the dead ends, quit smoking and doing whatever else she’s doing. She looks unhealthy… does anyone else think she looks a bit like Elijah Wood in these pictures??
I think that she may have lost a little weight. But, she looked pretty much like this prior to her
psychiatric hospital stay in July (which she “claimed” was trouble with wisdom teeth extraction and getting a nasty infection/abcess); thus causing her face to swell. But her body was bloaty, too, at the time. She was on THE VIEW in early August (& did look a bit thinner) & relayed the story of the infected wisdom teeth ordeal. (In lieu of what her close friends witnessed was due to excessive partying & drug use over a few month(s) period)? She was like rail thin in March/April & by summer her entire body had bloated up. Her body looks a bit better here…& her lower body/legs is where she carries her weight & that area is beginning to look thicker again. The camera angle is over emphasizing her lower body as well.
@ Emily….I have a “gut feeling” that she will NOT be slimming down for the show. The CW Network CANCELLED the show after just 2 episodes. Bet that Mischa will be spiralling down again in no time at all! (JMO)
To everyone who says she has thick legs, look at YOURSELF! I bet you’re fatter.
I can always tell when a photographer wants his subject to look fat, short, or oddly-proportioned: by this specific angle. Think of the Jessica Simpson “mom jeans” photo – same thing.
Chances are this photog was a male the same height or taller than 5′9″ Mischa Barton – and it appears as though he laid down just so he could take the shot with this horrible upward angle.
Ladies, please be wise to paparazzi upward-angle shots!
What happened to her face? She used to be so pretty.
This outfit is totally adorable and I’d wear it with plain black uggs instead, but honestly, for some reason, I do not think it is very flattering on Mischa at all.
I would totally wear it though.
I think she looks fine, what girls are supposed to look like.
I feel so bad for her since her show got canceled. Be strong Misch! And her legs looks bad as usual. She should draw attention to her top half more often.
I just don’t like her body shape in general. Strength training can change her body shape but it doesn’t look like she does that.
first
This girl does not know how to dress !!!
i happen to catch an episode of the OC over the weekend. she looked so fresh w/ a promising career back then.
sad
That outfit is rough. She looks much better in jeans.
Even back in her skinny mini days (OC), her legs always looked a bi ..and I repeat a bit heavier than ther rest of her slender body…Now, maybe it was the angle of the picture, but her thighs are big and her knees are shapeless. I have seen this in older women….anywho….my best friend works out like crazy, eats right, has a tiny waist and these Mischa legs..however, she opts for tailored pants or long dresses and always lookd great…just saying just saying
I second what Britmas08 said about “first” comments. Those people are more annoying than people who post offensive/negative things.
I would’ve sworn she was a naturally skinny girl when she was on The OC. Though she’s not fat now; just “normal.” Does anyone know if she had an ED back then?
Aw…she looks better here than she has in months. She may not be the prettiest/slimmest girl but she certainly tries. Also looks like she may have gotten some treatments for her cellulite. Hell, if I was rich I would certainly invest in any treatment I could get!
She’s a pretty girl but I’d like to see her in more flattering clothes with a better haircut, perhaps too her shoulders. Her hair always looks long, stringy and ratty. I don’t really have a problem with her figure – looks nice enough to me, she just doesn’t know how to dress it. Like the darker hair.
I like her. I think she is basically pretty. I can only hope that the cacellation of the show will be good for her life, though it could send her off in a bad direction. The thing that struck me about the show—when she first signed up—she was told not to stay too skinny—then she was warned about getting too fat. She needs to get away from people like that. Even if she does not do too much.
she looks so much healthier, meaning not too sinny nor too big, than usually! i’m positively surprised. if people call those legs thick, then mine, and most people call me super-skinny, must also be- without even taking into consideration that pix supposedly add 10lbs to your weight!
i’m worried for her and rarely do i worry over random celebrities who i do not know and don’t particularly care for. but mischa…she just seems destined for another very public demise.
She has really fair skin. It looked pretty with her blond/brownish hair. But the brown she has now is too dark and makes her look pale…
I like her outfit. Her body looks the same not counting her skinny periods.
She used to be my favorite. She still is, kind of, but I just feel so sorry for her. Yes she looks better now, but I wonder how long does it take when she’s back in her old habits.. And I don’t mean to be rude! It’s just..she was SO_FREAKING_BEAUTIFUL in her OC-days but now.. I don’t know. I’m not saying she looks bad, but just so different. She wears too much make-up or not at all. Clothes are not very flattering. Her hair looks thinner and dryer, she should cut a bit.
Why my comments are always “awaiting for moderation”? I have watched very carefully what to post..
Like I’ve said other times, I just can’t stand the enormous quantity of jewels she wears all the time!
But I love these shoes!
Chicklette Teeth get them fixed!! She needs to see Hillary Duffs dentist for some major work and top it of with a whitenning
At least now she doesn’t have to get super skinny anymore to play that model, look on the bright side Mischa.
@Britmas08: why do you care so much if people post ‘first’? Have you thought of maybe just ignoring those silly little posts and let people have some fun? ‘It adds no constructive criticism to the discussion’ – gimme a break. It’s not like we’re negotiating health care reforms on here or what to do about Iraq, is it?
I cannot see the appeal of this girl, she’s so fugly!
@Sian: here, here!
Now that Mischa has no show (Beautiful Life) to keep her busy with less “free time” to do her drugs (cocaine, reportedly & drinking)…I am almost positive we will see her making the headlines in trouble w/the law or hospitalized (in rehab or in a psychiatric facility, etc). Such a shame. (She moved from Calif. to New York to do this show). Have seen pics of her & LiLo when they were like 8 years old & doing commercials (they both had been with a modeling agency…”FORD”, I think). In the pics Mischa & LiLo were standing/posing for a picture (at 8 years old). Now they are both such (ongoing) trainwrecks. BTW, & O.T…I saw on TV E! Channel that LiLo’s attempt at becoming involved in Fashion
(artistic advisor) was a total mess. The critics said that her (LiLo’s) designs were “cheesey & outdated” & in general the line was a “hot mess”! Was reported that she was told to stick to acting as a career. Appears to me that she is incapable of acting or fashion design…her drinking, partying and drugs are too important to her. She & Mischa need to disappear for a few years & then maybe try again unless one or both of them end up dying young due to their excessive lifestyle choices!
i love her outfit
Boots of that height will give anyone cankles… whether or not you actually have them. I think they’re a bad choice to wear with anything other than pants.
I wonder how she’s holding up. When I heard her new show got canceled, my immediate thought was of how she would handle it… since it seems like she is still emotionally and mentally unstable. Even though I am not a fan of her, I hope she finds another project to work on to keep herself busy
She is not fat, but she should work out and get toned.
Her legs lack definition.
@ Britmas08
all of a sudden I feel like going to the oldest archived posts and post the comment “LAST!!!”
She is not going to age well at all. It’s too bad her current weight takes away from her prettiness. It’s too bad also that TBL was cancelled
She’s a really pretty girl, but I think she would benefit from some exercise & healthy diet makeover. I could be wrong on this, but I think if a regular person had the kind of lifestyle she has, they would be huge. I think she’s actually naturally somewhat thin, so, when she doesn’t take care of herself, she’s average-sized. I could be wrong on this, but she was pretty darn skinny on the OC.
Bella~why don’t You look in the mirror first! I happen to have awesome legs, if I do say so myself.
As for MB, she’s over the hill IMO. Never did like her.
I always gave her the benefit of the doubt until I saw her in an interview and she blamed going off the dead end on having his wisdom teeth out. Don’t like her at all anymore and can’t believe the difference from when she first started to now. I know she was tons younger but lots of actresses look better as they age, she def went downhill.
I think her legs look fine. I’m sure most of us have some part of our bodies that we would like to change but just can’t. In some cases your shape is your shape no matter how much dieting or exercising you do.
it’s amazing that she still gets press. the last time she looked good and was relevant was when she was like 17-20 years old. since then she’s been in a failed TV show and a series of irrelevant movies that no one sees or that are so bad they can’t get distribution. she’s still pretty but her looks have faded and they’re the only reason she worked in the first place. she needs AA and serious acting lessons for a couple of years and then stage a comeback!
‘Pretty cute and healthy’ – Are you having a laugh?
She looks ill!
Look at her eyes, pasty skin and greasy hair – she has been in rehab for Christs sakes for have severe problems (allegedly of a drink and drugs nature which would explain her puffy swollen face and weight gain) and is on a fast track back there by the looks of it if she carries on partying and not looking after herself.
YES she is not a SIZE ZERO – but this DOES NOT MEAN SHE IS HEALTHY!
Rian,
I think you should not only ban people who holler FRIST but also ban annoying people.
uh, wait a minute that means I’d be gone.
Never mind.
Rian-I have to agree with another commenter..people that just state “first” need to be banned.
On MB-I do feel bad that The Beautiful Life was canceled…guess I was one of the people that actually watched it and I was intrigued. I don’t love her look, but she is okay.
What happened to her?? She used to be gorgeous!
Now this is an examply of legs that should never wear ankle boots.
example*
why oh why does she continue to show those legs? they are so unattractive
shhhhh peoplee
this girl is georgeus
shhhhhhh envyy in the airrrrrrr
and the outfit is very cool
guys, she’s so pretty in my opinion…I love her hair too.
I’m pretty positive this is her sister
Nattt people who leave comments like yours are clearly the insecure ones. go back to stuffing your face with pastries and idolizing mischa of all people.
I don’t understand why she does not just cover up her flaws. Why not a longer skirt and something off the shoulders! Ugg this makes me sad!
She looks so different from her O.C. days she’s barely recognizable. I’m not just talking about the hair, lack of tan, and the weight- even her FACE looks different. Her nose somehow looks bigger and her teeth look yellowish. She looks like Mischa Barton’s dumpy cousin from Illinois or something. Like Lindsay Lohan, her looks have totally and completely diminished.
