WASHINGTON:

OC star Mischa Barton opened up for the first time about her DUI Arrest in 2007. In an interview to Nylon magazine’s August issue, the 22-year-old actress revealed that she was so embarrassed by her DUI arrest that she wanted to crawl into a hole and die.

‘That was a low point for me. I never, ever would have thought I would be arrested,’ Usmagazi-ne.com quoted Barton, as saying. ‘I was disappointed because it associated me with a group of girls that I would rather not be associated with.

‘That was the biggest bummer for me — I didn’t leave my house. I was too embarrassed. They made such a big deal out of it with these other young actresses, that, for a little bit, I wanted to crawl into a hole and die. Barton admits that she had made mistakes and has done a lot to pay back for her mistake, ‘It was a stupid thing to do. But... I’ve done a lot to pay back for what I did,’ she added.

‘I make mistakes, and I never claimed to be perfect. It’s weird. The way I live my life, I don’t want to be so closeted that I just have to shut myself off and become some protected young

starlet that’s removed from reality, but I was also just shocked at what a big deal people made out of it,’ she added. — ANI
