The Essence of Mischa Barton

Former O.C. actress Mischa Barton poses for the cameras as the new face of Herbal Essence at a photo call in Madrid, Spain on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old recently spoke about President Obama speech, saying, “I cried, I won’t lie. I cried for the people being hit by our economic crisis, including my friends, and for the people who don’t understand the spirit of good Americans. I cried because I had a press day where I had to answer worthless questions about fame and his speech was so right that that has nothing to do with the hard work that made the fabric of the American nation.”
