In the August issue of Nylon, Mischa Barton opened up about her DUI arrest from December 2007. Mischa said she is now deeply embarrassed over the incident.

“That was a low point for me. I never, ever would have thought I would be arrested,” Barton said.

“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.”

“It was a stupid thing to do,” Barton, who now lives in Paris said of driving under the influence. “But… I’ve done a lot to pay back for what I did.”

Really? You’ve “done a lot to pay back” for your DUI? Last time I checked, you were put on probation (despite the fact that you’re living in Paris now), and you paid a tiny fine and took some alcohol education classes. Go do a few years worth of volunteer work like the rest of us do just because we’re decent citizens, and then maybe I’ll feel your pain.

OT: I’m so assy this morning! I stayed up last night for The Dark Knight, and I am straight up dragging ass this morning.
