Mischa barton

Misha Barton is an actress and model with amazing appearance and a scandalous reputation. Almost every month in the press, shocking news about Misha's next failure thunders: now she landed in a mental hospital, then crashed somewhere in a car, then the next details of awkward personal life surface.

For all this husk is easy to forget, what, in fact, Misha Barton deserved the love of many thousands of fans. It is about how the actress and model builds her career, how to dress and care for herself, and will be described in our article.

Misha Ann Marsden Barton was born on January 24, 1986 in London. The father of the family - Paul Barton - a native Englishman, worked as a broker. Mama - Nuala Queen - was originally from Ireland, worked as a photographer. In addition to Misha, Paul and Nuala have two daughters - Zoe and Enya. When Misha was six years old, her father was offered a promising job in the States, so the whole Barton family moved to New York.

Once in a new country, on another continent, Misha and her sisters plunged into the ordinary life of American children: the girls year-round went to school, and in their free time they walked with friends. And in the summer, parents sent their offspring to an entertainment camp.

History does not say whether Barton won a prize at that competition for his performance. But fate, in a sense, still rewarded the girl: in the auditorium there was an agent searching for young talents. He invited the charismatic Misha to try himself as an actress.

Many believe that failures, both in personal and in professional sphere, very often pursue those actors whose debut and success took place in early childhood. Perhaps, it is indeed for this reason that Misha Barton in recent years in his career and in his life has more and more black lines than victories.

Just a year after the debut, Misha Barton won a place in the Broadway play. It was in 1995: incredibly keen on a creative profession, Misha was cast in the production of “Slavs!”. It was a difficult role, the girl had to play Russian, so it took to learn to speak with the appropriate accent - Barton perfectly coped with the task. In addition, in this performance, young Misha had a chance to play on the same stage with the owner of Oscar - Marisa Tomei, and she endured this test with honor and dignity.

Later, after this project, Misha had other important roles in the theater - work in the performances of “Twelve Dreams” (Twelve Dreams), “Where the Truth Lies” (Where The Truth Lies), “Disposable Diapers” (One Flea Spare) . In a word, Misha Barton turned out to be a very talented girl, and her career quickly went uphill.

Success in the theater quickly led the young talent on television.The actress has mainly received small roles: in the serials “Criminal Racing”, “Law and Order: Special Case”, in the television films “The Ring of Infinite Light” and “Offline”, as well as in the cult American soap opera “All My Children”.

This fame came to Burton after she got into the series "Lonely Hearts", also known in the Russian hire as “Once in California”. The original project name is Orange County - Orange County. Many critics have pointed out that the series was filmed with a high degree of imitation of one very popular youth soap, namely “Beverly Hills 90210”. However, this obvious similarity did not prevent “O. S. ”to find loyal viewers across America and even far beyond its borders.

The series lasted only four seasons, appeared on screens from 2003 to 2007. This is a teenage drama about a young man from a dysfunctional family, who suddenly moves from a poor neighborhood to the prestigious California Orange County. Misha got the role of the beloved protagonist in this series - the daughter of rich parents and the eternal party girl Marissa Cooper. However, the cinema couple did not live to see the final happy ending: after the third season, Burton left Lonely Hearts, and her heroine had to be killed.

The reason for this plot twist became the insurmountable disagreements between the actress and the producers of the series. In any case, many fans of “O. S. ”thinks that this is even better: the plot is more unpredictable and exciting.

Cinema roles at the dawn of such a successful career, too, got Misha Barton easily and in decent quantities. She first got into a short film about the polio epidemic. Then there were already filming in a full-length movie, for example, in a very good movie “Running around New York”.

This was followed by the role of revealing teenage sexuality Barton: charming Kira Collins in the mystical film “The Sixth Sense”, the weird Theresa in the thriller “Paranoia”, read by Mary Pierce in the comedy drama “Children under 16”, resolute Grace Bailey in the melodrama “College”.

In 2006, the actress received a very very adult role in the film "Orgasm in Ohio." Since then, Barton has played more and more older heroines. Although in 2011 she again tried on the costume of the schoolgirl: in the film “You and I” (another name is “In search of t.A.T.u”).

Misha portrayed a 16-year-old Russian girl. Provincial Lana Starkova arrived in Moscow for a concert of her favorite band “Tatu”, she wanted to get acquainted with her idols. Shooting of some scenes took place near Yaroslavl. Misha Barton admitted that she really liked Russian nature.

With his appearance on television, Misha Barton attracted the attention of the managers of the modeling agency Ford Models. Quite still a young girl received a job offer as a model, which, of course, did not refuse.This agency has opened the doors of the model business to many novice actresses.

For Misha, it was no less an opportunity than for many others: Barton became the face of the children's Calvin Klein Jeans clothing line. Very quickly, Misha began to appear on the covers of rating glossy magazines. This strengthened her position in the film industry and provided opportunities for a successful modeling career. A few years later, Barton became the face of Neutrogena cosmetics.

Each actress or model in her career always has time to act in at least one music video for the song. In the arsenal of Misha Barton there are three such works:

• 2003 - video for the song Addicted by Enrique Iglesias;
• 2005 - video for the track Goodbye My Lover by James Blunt;
• 2012 - video for the song Nobody Gallagher's Everybody’s on the Run High Flying Birds.

Any public person goes through dripping public in her underwear. And if a scandalous episode has ever been noticed behind celebrity, then evil tongues can continue to create scandals around the image of celebrity from scratch for years.

Mischa Barton is one such victim of freedom of speech. In personal happiness and relationships with men, Barton, in contrast to her numerous successful movie heroines, did not succeed. The actress has gone through a lot of novels and almost as much scandalous news in the press about this.

At one time, Jamie Dornan (the star of the film “Fifty Shades of Gray”), who had long and happily married another (Amelia Warner), could boast of being the boyfriend of a popular actress. Barton also linked romantic relationships with lesser-known people - Taylor Lock, Brett Simon, Luke Pritchard.

Much noise and gossip about Mischa Barton brought her relationship with the son of the owner of the 20th Century Fox film company - Brandon Davis. She met with a rock musician from Whitestarr and with British actor Sebastian Knapp, but all these relationships were doomed to failure.

While working on the TV show “Lonely Hearts,” as is often the case, the characters of the tape, between whom feelings on the screen were played out, decided to try something similar in life. However, as in the movie - did not work. For several years, Misha's lover was her film boyfriend, Benjamin "Ben" McKenzie. Their relationship came to a tragic end shortly before Misha left the show itself.

Constant failures in personal life - a tragedy for any woman, even for the rich and famous. Began depression, nervous breakdowns, the press rattled about the problems of Burton with the law, alcohol, weight ...

On top of all this, the actress learned that at the peak of the success of her career, her mother decided not to work, but gradually to pocket significant amounts of her daughter's fees. On this occasion, Barton began litigating with her ancestors, the actress is not going to so easily part with an honestly earned fortune, which in recent years has been greatly squandered.

Today, Misha Barton has a measured life, she has work in small projects - not deafening, but stable. Barton is engaged in charity work: supports funds to combat breast cancer in women.

No such interview has ever taken place in which a Hollywood beauty would tell her the secret to making homemade masks or lotions. The star loves good and expensive cosmetics - you can't forbid living beautifully! Favorites among the brands: Crème de la Mer and Clinique. The latter brand, by the way, belongs to the category of available face and body skin care products. At bedtime, Misha also has his weaknesses.

Only a lazy one could not notice how Misha Barton is constantly on the verge of balance: either she’s exhausted so much that it is life threatening, she recovers in a very short time, so that the diagnosis of obesity is fitting.The figure of Barton is changing all the time, but at the dawn of a career, her weight with a height of 175 cm barely reached 40 kg!

When the actress grew fat by 30-40 kg in a few months (that is, almost doubled), the public was literally shocked. Even more, everybody went into hysterics, when fat Misha did not hide her eaten sides and lyashki, walking down the street in a figure that was not quite suitable for such build. Why the actress recovered so much was probably understandable: stresses and constant failures made themselves felt.

One thing pleases: now, when Misha Barton has lost weight again to pretty forms, the actress looks great, slim and happy. According to the star herself, she did not torture herself with any specific diets. He says that she just began to follow the diet, to adhere to a balanced diet, and in total with the merciless work load, those extra pounds willingly left her.

However, information spread from insider sources, which was not without tricks. Thus, the lemon diet helped Misha speed up the metabolism and start the mechanism of weight loss. This is the option of unloading for 3 days, but some Hollywood stars, without sparing their stomachs, keep on a diet for up to 10 days, which causes fast and strong weight loss. We advise not to risk health and adhere to the rules.

1. For this three-day diet you need to prepare lemonade: 4 liters of pure water mixed with juice 6 medium-sized lemons, add 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper and 28 tablespoons of maple syrup.

2. During the diet, you need to drink 6 cups (about 200 ml) of this lemonade daily and do not eat anything else.

3. It is necessary to prepare for a diet: three days before it began to switch to liquid food (first, soups, then mashed potatoes and smoothies). At the end of the diet it is also necessary to gradually return to solid food (3-4 days).

For the sake of justice, it is worth noting that Misha Barton is able to dress so as to look delightful both in magnificent forms and being skinny. Therefore, to look at the exponential outfits from this Hollywood beauty can be infinite! Here and classic, and casual, and grunge, and all the splendor of evening dresses.

There was in the life of Misha Barton and a period of passionate love for the hippie style. It manifested itself in all kinds of headbands, massive jewelry, flared skirts and ethnic tops.

If we talk about the mixing of styles, here Misha perfectly managed to combine rock and roll outfit in the beatnik style of the 60s with boho elements originated in the hippie culture of the 70s.

No fashionista should forget that the ideal figure is not the guarantee of creating a good outfit. If the sense of style and taste disappears somewhere, you can create a ridiculous bow with a slim body. So, Misha Barton, being, by the way, not in the worst form, managed to appear in public in a frankly disastrous form. This jumpsuit is obviously not her size, everything is tight: her shoulders are not in place, the neckline does not look the way it should be, and the “camel foot” is a disgrace.

When Misha wore blonde-tinted hair, she was often compared to another blond actress, Evan Rachel Wood. Referring to the same type of appearance and having similar build, many stars are similar to each other outfits. So many times happened to this couple. One of the variants of their fashionable battle is a different vision of what should be black and white trouser bow. If an event with a strict dress code, then Wood certainly wins, but for a more informal meeting, it is the choice of Barton that is good.

Misha's style is constantly changing, as she herself. Therefore, in conclusion, we offer to admire the evolution of fashionable images of the scandalous actress.
