Mischa Barton Sues Mother, Claiming Talent Management Exploitation
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | April 7, 2015

Mischa Barton filed suit Tuesday against her mother, Nuala Barton, claiming she's withheld her daughter's career earnings and otherwise exploited her fame.

The complaint, filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court, reads like a soap opera: "This action arises from the tragic tale of a greedy stage mother posing as a talent manager who, instead of acting in the best interest of her daughter/client, schemed to defraud her unsuspecting victim."

About Marissa her character on the O C "The decision to kill Barton's character came from the producers.[9] Josh Schwartz relays that it was entirely a creative decision: "It had as much to do with creatively feeling like this was always in the cards for this character and she was an inherently tragic heroine, and part of the Ryan/Marissa story was him trying to save her from a fate that she couldn't be rescued from."[10] Commenting on her character's death, Barton said: "My character has been through so, so much and there's really nothing more left for her to do."[11] She added, "I was really excited that I get to die, to be honest. [...] It was better than one of those lame farewells."[9] ^ Stern, Marlow (August 5, 2013). "Remembering 'The O.C.': Creator Josh Schwartz on the show's 10th anniversary". The Daily Beast.

This soooooo falls into the “I don’t give a crap” category that it may never hit bottom...

She’s very lovely! Doesn’t seem to have “enhancements.”

She used to be so beautiful that I compared her to a young Jacqueline Bisset (one of the world’s truly most beautiful women of all time).

Somebody has got to talk to this girl. Too many twinkies, I fear.

I get the sense that she eats her emotions. With a mom like gets, I don’t blame her. She’s still pretty, just fragile.
