She was not fired from the OC. They had nowhere to go with her character, Marissa. It was simply that too much had happened to the character, that they couldn't think of anything else for her to go through. So they wrote her out of the show. Maybe Mischa was a little slacking at work because she was leaving soon.

Response to Allie,
How dare you call Mischa a BRAT. A brat is someone who goes to a film festival to party, suddenly throws a diva fit and refuses to promote her movie because she thinks it's 'awful'. Mischa would never do that.
Oh wait, never mind.

It's "handy for Summer"?? WTF does that mean?

Psst! No one cares, honey. Go be a housewife. Buh-bye.

Applying at Wal-Mart may be a great career choice for Mischa these days!

Well la dee freakin' da! Why is this news? Who the hell cares? I thought she was already blonde. By the way, my hair is black, I'm thinking of going lighter too. Just thought US might want to jump on the band wagon and let everyone know...LOL.

Slow "news" day i reckon ;-)

I also remember when this brat was on The OC (a show she was fired from for, incidentally, brattiness), she griped, "I hate my hair light! They make me dye it, so when we are on hiatus, I always go darker!".

Maybe some day she'll become a real grown up!

*PS - i was not allowed to post this until i changed "b1tched" (but spelled correctly) into "griped". Nice, US. Why don't you go after people who cannot spell correctly or use horrid grammar?

1. Her hair has been blond for YEARS.

2. Why is she news? She's always "working on several movies" but no one ever sees an actual finished product. All she's famous for now is her ugly clothes and posing on the beach.

3. She is weird-looking! How did she ever get a job on TV?

Her publicist is Lisa Perkins and Howard Bragman of 15 Minutes and her manager is her mom Nuala.

She better make sure the drapes match the carpet.

Who cares what this dumb stoner has to say.

Mischa must pay her publicist a whole lot of money to keep her in the news. Her career is based 98% on publicity and 2% on actual talent and work. I mean when was the last time we saw her in something other than posing for magazines and attending events.

Poor Meesch. She makes tons of movies but so far only one has been released in US theatres. The others have gone straight to DVD or had their release delayed. She was also dumped by her agency CAA. Of course Mischa claims that she wasn't dumped but left instead for another agency, Paradigm, that barely anyone has heard of. She was also replaced by Maggie Grace on Malice in Wonderland. She was attached to that movie for two years. So if you see her getting stoned and drunk don't be too hard on her.

b!tch looks beat with a blonde mop

i think that she needs to go to college "for the learning".....
