Will Mischa Barton join Gossip Girl?
Sorry folks, but it appears that it’s just a rumor after all. Mischa’s rep officially squelched the hype-to-be by saying, “She will not be on the show. She was approached, but her reps passed.”
TV Guide had reported that it was “100% true” and that the actress would be playing Georgina Sparks, an old friend of Serena. Hmm… Blake and Mischa together? The blondeness would almost be too much to contemplate, no?
Maybe Mischa has bigger fish to fry. She has been officially charged with a DUI and possession of marijuana – misdemeanor charges, which is lucky for her.
What do you think? Will she reconsider after the legal woes pass? Would Mischa be a good fit for Gossip Girl or too much of a distraction? Vote in the poll in the sidebar!
