Mischa Barton: Weight Struggles
Mischa Barton has been told to lose weight by her producers. The 23-year-old star of the new hit TV show, The Beautiful Life, was “shocked to tears” when she was told to 10 pounds to be able to play her role as a model, believably.
In recent months, Barton’s yo-yoing weight has made Hollywood news headlines, with the young star first being called too thin, and then too fat. In July, shocking photos of the former OC actress came under public scrutiny. But she brushed off the gossip and blamed her bloated face on recent dental work after she had a wisdom tooth removed.
Now that her show’s producers have made their request that she lose what they believe is excess weight, one begins to wonder if the surgery statement was true. A source told the UK’s Star magazine that Barton was really shaken up and is convinced she’s being called fat behind her back on The Beautiful Life set.
“She’s broken down in tears more than once before shooting. It’s a lot of pressure for someone who is just out of hospital,” the source said.
Barton was released from hospital just last month (27 July) after she suffered a mental breakdown. The source goes on to say that Barton’s always been able to lose weight quickly, and her family and friends are behind her 100%.
