Mischa Snubs Cannes Premiere of Lesbian Film

Former O.C. starlet Mischa Barton has been criticized for failing to attend the scheduled premiere of her new movie, You And I, in Cannes, because she thought the film was “awful” and “didn’t want to be involved in the project.”

Barton, who turned 22 in January, opted to party at Chopard’s Cannes bash instead of attending the premiere. She pulled out of all promotional work for the film earlier in the day, saying she was going home, but a source has revealed Mischa was still on the Riviera and drinking champers when You And I was due to debut.

The source apparently asked the young actress why she wasn’t at the premiere, to which Mischa snapped: “I was never due to go.” Not a very good argument, considering she was in partying in Cannes at the time.

In the film, Mischa plays one of two teenage girls who attend a t.A.T.u. concert in Moscow and fall in love. Bandmembers Lena and Yulia play themselves in the cross-continental film. As you all know, t.A.T.u. is the Russian girl band who’ve made a controversial come-back, appearing naked in their new music video for the track, Beliy Plachik.

The plotline is pretty simple: “[The girls] are swept into a dangerous world of obsession, drug abuse and murder.” Sounds a lot like the plot to Lindsay Lohan’s D-grade stripper romp, I Know Who Killed Me
