Mischa Barton On Her DUI Arrest: "I'm Not Perfect"
Mischa Barton called in to Ryan Seacrest's morning show this morning (man, that dude is like the king of all media) and spoke up about her recent DUI arrest. "Obviously I'm 100 percent responsible for my actions in this case," The O.C. actress said this morning. "I'm really disappointed in myself. I don't know what to say about it, except that I'm not perfect, and I just don't ever intend to do something this stupid again." That's all fine and good, people make mistakes, and I am blessed with the power of forgiveness, but Mischa's excuse for driving without a valid license is lame with a capital "L". "I didn't have a license. I grew up in New York, the land of people who don't have to drive," she said. "It's always been the toughest thing about living in L.A. for me. I usually try not to get behind the wheel."
How long has she been in L.A.? That's a really bad reason. Also, I grew up in New York, too, and almost everyone I know got their driver's license at 17. Sounds like Mischa is taking only a little bit of responsibility. She's an adult, if she's going to drive she should get a license, unless, of course, she's one of the privileged ones who's exempt from law, then she should try flying a plane, too. Why not, right?
