Mischa admits to 'stupid' mistake

Actress Mischa Barton has spoken out for the first time about her arrest for driving erratically in Hollywood.

The former OC star followed in the footsteps of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie when she picked up while driving under the influence.

The 21-year-old has admitted getting arrested for the offence, including driving without a licence, was a 'stupid' mistake that she never intends to repeat.

Barton gave an interview to US radio host Ryan Seacrest - her first since cops pulled her over on December 27.

She revealed she was 100 per cent responsible for her actions and is really disappointed in herself.

The London-born star spent seven hours in jail but was released on bail. The actress is due back in court on February 28.
