Mischa Barton: ‘I’m no Bitch’
Posted by Adam
Mischa Barton insists she’s no “bitch” — she says she’s still fairly normal, despite her fame.
The actress — who was recently released from hospital after being placed under involuntary psychiatric hold — says her family keep her grounded.
“My family keep me grounded,” she tells Britain’s Sunday Mirror newspaper. “I still take the subway and do my own laundry. Well, not all of the time, but I’m not a bitch. I enjoy having a normal life.”
Barton admits her life was “crazy” when she shot to fame in The OC several years ago.
“The OC was a crazy four years for me, so when it ended it was kind of bitter-sweet,” she said. “But it was syndicated everywhere in the world. I sometimes wish I was just a bit-part actor so I could get on with my life and my acting. As I get older I’ll try to step back from the fame thing.
“Every day the paparazzi intrude into my life. I can’t believe I can be that interesting. I try to be graceful about it. I’m not a rude person, but it can be difficult not to unleash your angry side.”
