To stay fit for The Beautiful Life, Mischa Barton — who it’s safe to say has had her ups and downs in recent weeks — has been working out hard and going to the Equinox gym in the trendy SoHo section of Manhattan almost every day.
But even though she’s becoming a very familiar face there, apparently the for O.C. star is not winning many friends.
A member of the gym tells OK! that Mischa’s “really annoying” and “monopolizes the trainers’ time and seeks attention constantly.”
Yikes!
Apparently, there is usually one floor trainer for everyone to use, but Mischa ends up grabbing the hardbody-on-duty and wastes everyone’s time by asking him or her to explain every little thing to her, keeping them close to her the entire time she’s at the gym.
“It’s as if she has never been to a gym before,” a fellow gym-goer says.
Mischa also struts around the gym, preening in front of any reflective surface she can find. “Instead of trying to blend in, it’s like she really wants attention,” says the source. “She’ll stand right next to me and stare at herself in the mirror.”
Why is she still considered “the OC star”? Hasn’t that been off the air for a LONG time? She is not pretty and seems rather creepy - tired of hearing/reading about her, she’s a has been.
I agree with Denise, is she considered a “star”? I don’t consider ANY reality show person a
“star”. The reality shows are really starting to get out of hand. When are they going to stop! What ever happened to really good sitcoms, drama’s etc. 95% of shows on tv are reality…really sucks. I guess that’s why I watch HBO and Showtime (Dexter & True Blood, yeah) and that’s about it.
I actually tormented myself and watched a couple episodes of the oc awhile back, she is creepy! Her voice is horrible sounding and she has terrible posture….now that’s the only thing I’ve seen her in so maybe it was the way she interpreted the character, but I thought her acting was HORRIBLE. I was embarrassed for her just watching it.
This is simply not true. I go to the Equinox Gym in Soho and she just goes there with friends, talks to them like any one of us would do about the Steam room or the equipment and works out. She doesn’t draw attention to herself, but everyone knows who she is so every single word that comes out of her mouth attracts everyone’s attention. And every word or move she does is exaggerated by the people around her as she is famous. I stare at myself in the mirror, just like the woman next to me in the locker room fixes her hair…
