Mischa Barton 'furious' over Fearne Cotton documentary
By Eleanor Young on Wednesday 13 October 2010
Do we spy a celebrity feud in the making? Mischa Barton is said to be 'furious' with presenter Fearne Cotton, and has hit out at the star after appearing in an episode of Fearne And... for ITV2.

The Radio One host spent time with Mischa at her home in LA for the documentary, which was screened last month.
But now the OC starlet is said to be fuming with the Brit presenter, after the final cut of the show portrayed her in a less than perfect light.
‘I think that Fearne Cotton's show is a joke and she's a joke,’ the starp-tongued star told OK! Magazine. ‘I can't hear Fearne's name without seeing red.’
Referring a clip which showed her keeping Fearne’s team waiting, she said: ‘Fearne never let on that she was irritated about waiting. She acts like everything's so great and she loves you and they cut it together and make it seem like it was a terribly painful experience for them.
And now Mischa has revealed she wishes she hadn’t done the show, and was distraught when she watched the documentary back.

'I wish I hadn't done it and that's bad because there are enough misconceptions about me in the press,’ she said.
'I cried my eyes out when I first saw it because I was like, "Are you kidding me? This is the way you want to portray me? I've let you into my life."'
What are your thoughts on Mischa’s comments? Do you think the actress acted like a diva? Let us know in the comments box below.

I love Mischa, I reckon she has a tough time and it's a shame about Fearne doing this!
I saw Fearne at a celeb juice show at she was grumpy!

I saw the show, and yes she was a diva
Comment by Kirstie Taylor on October 13 11:14
Fearne's shows do seem to follow a similar pattern where she ends up spending alot of time waiting for the 'celebrity' rolling her eyes & then doesn't mention a thing about it (on camera) but on the whole I've enjoyed watching her series.

WHo isn't going to get annoyed waiting for someone outside their house...while they are inside...for 4 whole hours. To edit that out would be hiding the fact that Mischa is a full on diva.
She is the joke being so rude, not Fearne & what would be the point in Fearne kicking off about waiting outside, she has a documentary to finish.
Comment by C Reid on October 13 12:28
She sounded/acted like she was off her face on drugs..so I doubt Fearne and the producers could have portraid Micha any differently :/
Also..what was with her American/English accent? She said 'oh I have family here and I'm here alot' so? My entire family are Irish and I'm there alot..but I was raised and educated in England..therefore..speak with an English accent..the fool.

I liked the show and found it far less annoying than the incorrect spelling of the TV presenter's name written above!
Comment by mo on October 13 12:50
I think Mischa is out of herself, when i was watching a programme, i thought why she just drops that mischa and goes home, look at Craig David, all the show was just great, everything in time, friendly and just interestinf to watch... with mischa - she never answers her phone then cant be bothered to open the door, then fixing her make up for hours.. ridiculous..
Comment by me on October 13 12:54
Mischa is only annoyed because Fearne has shown how she really is, she will have been fully briefed on what the show is all about I think it is disgusting that they agree to do these shows then keep people waiting for hours the lady from Gossip was just the same I think it's rude but Craig David was lovely he may have lots of bling flashy car and house but I loved his time with Fearne.
One last thing on Mischa if you dont want publicity stay out of the spot light.
Comment by zoe on October 13 12:58
I watched the show and i thought Mischa definitely looked affected...by something, whether it was drugs or whatever, and she did keep Fearne waiting, for hours, and came across as unreliable and diva-ish and quite weird....but i think Fearne played the typical two faced journalist, which wont do her any favours in the long-term...
Comment by mj on October 13 13:00
Yes I thought Mischa did act abit divarish on the show, but whats the big deal? i've watched the series and think it's been quite good so far, whats Mischa moaning about, get a grip love
Comment by Carolyn on October 13 13:17
I saw the programme too and every time they were meant to meet up she was late and it showed Fearne trying time and time again to contact her by phone and I dont see how they could edit that to make it look bad! Mischa Barton says she didnt say anything about being kept waiting - well no, she wouldnt as she had to finish the programme and probably wouldnt be that rude just in case Ms Barton were to kick off! Let's face it, she is a diva, typical child star who has been used to having her own way for so long!
Comment by Diane Skinner on October 13 13:23
Fearne Cotton is a sycophantic parasite. She spends her programes asking "probing" questions to people nobidy cares about but not finding out very much. She behaves like she is aspirational but she is vaccuous, and has taken advantage of a clearly damaged person.
Comment by Kitty on October 13 13:23
I think Mischa has that accent because she spends alot of time in England and she went to acting college in London. People pick up accents, it happens.
Comment by Laura on October 13 14:01
Mischa is one of the people who I really want to like but just can't. And the show just proved that. In the show fearne came off as the better person!!
Comment by Pippa Lou on October 13 14:12
I SAW THE SHOW - AND I WAS ANGRY AT MISCHA KEEPING PEOPLE WAITING FOR 4 HOURS.... SO YES, SHE IS A DIVA.. CELEBRITY OR NOT, IT IS VERY RUDE TO BE LATE OR KEEP PEOPLE WAITING FOR NO REASON - AS I REMEMBER SHE DID NOT EVEN APOLOGISE OR EXPLAIN HERSELF.
SHE IS TOO FULL OF HERSELF.... GOOD ON FEARNE IN SHOWING THE REAL PEOPLE!

I have to totally agree about the ridiculous fake accent! I really like fearne cotton and dint think that mischa Barton did herself any favours at all.. She didn't come across as someone who has anything about her she seemed shallow self centred and really really boooooring, if I was fearne I wouldn't have even waisted my time waiting for her to get ready for four hours, I mean- that's just plain rude!!
Comment by Joanna t on October 13 15:59
I felt strongly when I watched the documentry that Mischa Barton only participated because she saw it as an opportunity to appear normal. She spent a lot of time talking about how normal she is and actually, it isn't normal to be so obsessed with what you're wearing and your hair and make up and it isn't normal to keep someone waiting for 4 hours. Whether Fearne appeared irritated or not, the fact still remains that Mischa was hard work and it showed.
Comment by Kim on October 13 16:55
I was so disappointed in Mishca when watching the show. She lost a fan. Fearne won one.
Comment by Kelly on October 13 18:48
I watched this and yes she did come across as a complete diva. Yes she has not had the best time however, I find it hard to feel too sorry for her when there are people everywhere having a 'really' difficult time. And also making someone wait for you for 4 hours is just plain selfish - have a bit of self awareness. I am on the fence re:Fearne, but come on it would have been hard to make her look good.
Comment by mscott on October 13 19:50
well if mischa stuck to not leaving people waiting outside then there wouldnt have been a problem..i enjoyed the show and saw both mischa and fern and had my thoughts on both but now after mischas rant i think shes a totally spoilt b***h, she makes the bad press for herself...stop paying this girl and give the job to someone who deserves it! and fern try to be abit more tactful!
Comment by cat on October 13 20:06
whilst watching it i thought if 'twas really true Mischa was in her house realizing the team might have arrived at some point, then she wasn't really nice as the program showed the team waiting and Fearne attempting to get through to her phone. HOWEVER, was that really the case though? or did Fearne, in her usual waffling way, actually not make it clear to Mischa that she was arriving in so-and-so time and therefore will be expecting the actress to be waiting for the team? wasn't clearly depicted. And why was Fearne so two faced in not asking or even mentioning that they were waiting for that long outside??? what was she playing at? sure makes Mischa B out to be a diva, of course. Not fair though.
Comment by juni on October 13 20:20
good on you Fearne! Mischa wants to be seen as something she is not. She's just an average looking, average actress who appears to be often off her head!
Really nothing special or interesting about her
Comment by Andrea on October 13 21:01
I love Fearne's shows, they are fab... Maybe the celebs should think about it before saying yes to doing it!!!! Craig David is the only one I've seen that I can say really embraced it and showed Fearne a good time.....
Comment by Claire on October 14 14:07
Mischa (God love the girl) was eccentric, disconnected right throughout the show so I don't think that Fearne could have shown her differently. Fearne didn't set out to show her in a bad light but Mischa came across as being a little out of it
Comment by Katie on November 15 22:08
I watched the whole thing, I thought Mischa came across as pretty down to earth and cool while Ferne came across two faced
