Mischa Barton is one tough cookie. The actress was visibly annoyed by the attention she (and her vintage car) received during an outing in Beverly Hills on Tuesday and decided to take the matter into her own hands.
While other celebrities would opt to call in extra reinforcements when facing off against the paparazzi, Barton decided she wanted to handle the situation herself, vigilante-style.
"Get off the car! Just get off the car!" she said angrily as she got back to her classic ride. "I've never been more serious about anything in my life, I'll run you over with it."
Earlier, everything had seemed fine: Barton had thanked the assembled group of photographers for reminding her that the meter was only valid for twenty minutes ("Thank you, you guys are so thankful," she said, maybe somewhat sarcastically), and seemed genial as they helped her figure out how to pay the meter with a credit card.
