Someone gave
Mischa Barton a job! No, silly, not an acting one. But she did just sign with Herbal Essences to become the new face of their line. She’s cute and all, but we think they could have picked someone with a more luscious head of locks. The Times Online UK was the first to report the story.
Mischa was in Madrid today posing for pictures as the new face of the line. Things seem to be looking up for her a little. It’s great for her to have a worldwide campaign like this, and she’s also currently on the cover of the February issue of UK Cosmo.
Mischa’s also been turning her focus to political matters, and wrote in her blog today about how she felt when Obama was sworn in as President today.
She said:
“I think that the inauguration today was absolutely incredible. Obama's speech rung so true and is the reason why I made myself an American citizen.
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.
Had he not won, I would not be proud to be an American any longer. I live in France for the freedom America once offered -- I have all my faith in Obama. I'm not a religious person but may God bless him and his family.”
Wow, that’s a side of Mischa we haven’t seen before! She’s so grown up! Seems like her party girl days are long gone. Let’s hope this new-and-improved Mischa sticks around!
