Totally planned. It's obvious the photos were carefully selected for her to look her best.

wow, what a great set of candid shots. major scoop. nothing fake or posed here. i am so surprised that they got these without her knowing. just showed up on the beach all by herself and who would have suspected a photorgapher waiting to capture her very natural movements? shocking.

Are there photography studios in CA that specialize in fake candid beach shots? First Douchbag and Funbags, then Donna and the Bachelor and now Mischa are all building their porfolios of unconvincing candids? Pathetic.

Looks like she's taking tips from Heidi Montag!

Do you think her thighs are photoshopped?

hmm wheres her cootage cheese thighs she make sure the sun it her right..

other than that..she make me

god damn, i hope not! her thighs look awful!

this is obviously on purpose à la Heidi Montag but i think the bangs look good on her.

her thighs look aweful? who are u comparing her to? a barbie doll??

Yep...same as yesterday, still the WORST legs in Hollywood!!! UGH

She looks good in a bikini. I am trying not to focus on her legs.

she is lucky, it seems she looks better out of her clothes then in them. her upper body is good, but her legs are rather thick, but even in these pictures,they look ok.

totally posed! it wasa blind item on perezhilton.com today

Planned or not, I think she looks really cute and I really love her bikini! Also: I can't believe people think she has fat legs. I find that very sad...

I just think she looks better out of the picture rather than in it.

If anything she looks like a healthy 20 something year old. I am sure everyone mentioning her "cellulite" has perfect legs to go along with a perfect body.

I do think these pictures look like they were set up (which is annoying) but come on people isn't this something we (young women) should defend (healthy and NORMAL sized women) and not criticize?

shes doesnt look fat to me! Now that shes off that stuff she finally at a normal weight (not normal in Hollywood terms though).

she is boring and just tired

i feel like almost everything that she's done lately has been planned/staged or whatever. she's trying to redo her image and maybe it's working. i still don't care for her.

it like after the DUI she was going to church and looking all southern and wholesome and we all know that it's really not her style.

do we not remember the party that she threw with nicole richie and thier email that was a 'JOKE'? this IS The same girl...

So what - She looks cute. I am so tire of people criticizing celebs. If you hate them so much, why read about them. And I don't see anything wrong with her thighs - this is why so many woment are anorexic.

I think her legs are fine! I hate how normal, healthy girls are "fat" by hollywood standards.

My legs are bigger than hers and I am a healthy and toned size 6...guess that makes me fat! It seems like some people have allowed the media to totally brainwash them.

she looks great! very cute and confident

look at the pix of her on her knees, blech! not good legs, no! and as for people making ugly comments about celebs on here; that's because this is a gossip site not a fan site.

While she doesn't have great legs, she's not fat either. She does seem to have a special talent for picking the least flattering clothing to accentuate her less than perfect attributes, though.

People seem to think that the only reason these pictures are online is for them to compete with other posters in saying the nastiest, most unnecessary things about people they can think of in the name of humor. It gets really, really old after while, reading all the negative people things people try so hard to come up with.

These photos look so stupid. I could make photographs look less staged! It reminds me of that beach photo shoot Heidi Montag did. . . lame to the max.

Ick. She has the oddest shaped body. Her legs are not attractive. I am quite the reader but even I have a hard time reading on the beach. That part is especially staged.

she is about as sexy and appealing as an ironing board

she is looking good...and those are very unflattering angles
the photos on egotastic are much better...for her and her legs..

she's boring

i would take being built like that!

What is wrong with her legs? I don't even like her and I feel like I have to come to her defense. I don't understand why some of you are making a big fuss about her body. Genetics are genetics. Let it be. Just be glad you're not the one being sabotaged for your body type.

I agree with anaid. Seriously, I think most everyone has some cellulite. Its part of life, no one is perfect.

her legs dont look like thunder thighs in these pics

I wonder what book she's reading..?

People are right - she totally doen't know how to dress herself appropriately for her figure - I love how as soon as she moved away from the OC she slowly attempted to individualise her style (- Brownie points for trying to be individual but her clothes are just plain wierd and completely flattering most of the time. I feel that she's caught between two shapes - pear and something else, I can't decide, and I think that's what makes it awkward for her to fit properly in her chosen attire.

Also, wasn't she considered somewhat of a fashionista during/straight after the OC (before she started changing)?

I think her thighs look great here, but a few days ago they didn't. So I'm wondering if they were photoshopped. I'm not saying I have great legs... my thighs are thunder thighs too. It is a critical world we live in.

I'm pretty sure she new thet taking picture of her... Great picure... Yeah her hair ten times better then blonde! I'm glad things went well for her today! I just hopes shes careful! i love this chick, she freaking awesome... I dont care about anyone that doesn't like her.... Yall can get a life... like i said, this chick is awesome!!!! She not like most celb!!!! ( yeah i don't like her style sometimes, but i like her personallity or wat ever!

All the haters can go and get stuffed. I bet you guys don't look half as good as her in a bikini yet you think you can critise?

I have thick legs too! Am i suppossed to feel disgusted with myself? get over it - it's genetics.

I hope none of you have daughters because with your standards they will be hospitalised for anorexia by age 8.

fashionplate-she's probably reading How to Photo Op like Rich Talentless Out of Work Sluts for Dummies.

wow she must have gotten the cottage cheese removed somehow....
but the reason she gets so much flack is because she comes off really arrogent and talks about how shes so skinny without having to diet.

her legs = bleh!

mostly i'll give her flack because her acting kills babies, and she has an inability to convey anything but pretense & arrogance. but overall she doesn't look too bad, though she'd be in better shape if she exercised once in awhile. and her hair looks a MILLION times better than her old peroxide mop. her inability to "act natural" in such a staged environment, however, is HILARIOUS.

Geeze, Mischa Barton is so skinny and people are getting on her about her legs? I wish my legs were like hers. It's no wonder people in Hollywood and outside it have eating disorders; it's because they get flack from people like the ones complaining about her legs!

It's not the size, it's the jiggle. Bigger legs look okay if they are toned. Mischa got away with being naturally thin when she was 17 but she needs to start working out now. We have a right to criticize because they are celebrities and they get paid to look good.

Hey, Mischa, your book is upside down! LOL

It's not that her legs are fat or thick. They are like upside down triangles. It's called personal taste. I don't exactly love my legs either. I am a size 2 and workout every other day. My bottom half is not in proportion to my upper half. Skinny arms and muscular legs. Her legs are shapeless. She looks better than I thought she would in a bikini though. Why in the hell can't anyone be critical of another attention starved wh*re? She put herself on the beach in a bikini while knowing the paps would be there. Her and Lohan need to get together and just rub their vaginas all over the camera lens. They are in love with themselves and pap attention.

there is something weird about her body
