Mischa Barton stripped down to jeans, a hat and a suggestive dandelion for the denim issue of Nylon magazine. Despite some bad career choices, with multiple movies and a handbag collection in the works, the new European has a lot to talk about. She even opened up about her DUI among other things. Here are some highlights:

• On her DUI arrest: "That was a low point for me. I never, ever would have thought I would be arrested. Like, it was one of those things that I never thought would happen to me, and I was disappointed because it associated me with a group of girls that I would rather not be associated with."
• On education: "I would want to go to college for the learning, but there's so much else that comes with that that I don't think I need anymore. I've been making my own money and living as an adult for far too long."
• On the difference between TV and movies: "In TV, actors literally ignore the directors, which I find wild. I couldn't understand that when I started on television. I'd always go to the director and ask him questions, and he'd look at me with a blank stare like, 'Why are you here?'"

Hmmm, me thinks Mischa might not get any new TV gigs after that comment. As for her DUI, at least it looks like she learned her lesson.
