Former O.C. star MISCHA BARTON is heading back to TV in a new fashion-based show alongside ASHTON KUTCHER.
Barton quit the teen drama in 2006 to pursue a movie career, but will now go back to her roots on the small screen in A Beautiful Life - a satire based on the fashion industry.
The 23-year-old plays a New York-based model in the pilot episode, which also features a cameo appearance from supermodel Elle Macpherson.
Barton says, "It’s a really great show. It’s like the O.C. but times 10. Everyone is dressed in the latest Versace and McQueen. Zac Posen has a fashion show in the first episode and plays himself.
"It’s a younger version of Sex and the City. I play a super bitchy model in New York. If the pilot does well I will be spending a lot more time in New York." And Barton admits she loved the clothes so much, she took most of them home with her, adding, "I bought most of my wardrobe."

GIRLS ALOUD star CHERYL COLE has confirmed she will take time out from the band to record a solo album.
The singer, who is also a judge on TV talent show The X Factor, will begin working on her own music this summer (09).
But a spokesman for the British girl band insists Cole’s solo efforts will not spell the end for the group - as they are contracted to make three more albums together, including one in 2010.
The rep also revealed the other members of the girl group - Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh - will also be using time away from the band to concentrate on their own projects, from "music to acting to beauty to fashion".
He says, "Cheryl is going to work on some solo music - there is no release date set for this yet as she has not recorded any music. Her A&R people have approached various producers with the view to working with her.
"Until she has recorded music, we can’t say who will be working on the record as we can’t say at this stage what will make it past the idea stage." Cole’s bandmate Harding is to make her acting debut in forthcoming BBC drama Freefall, starring alongside Mamma Mia! actor Dominic Cooper, while Roberts has already embarked on several fashion and beauty ventures including a make-up line for women with pale skin.

LIAM GALLAGHER insists OASIS will never split, despite the tensions between him and bandmate brother NOEL GALLAGHER - because they’ve hated each other for the past 15 years.
The pair has taken their feud public in recent weeks, starting with Noel’s revelation that his brother has never met his 19 month old nephew Donovan.
The guitarist said, "Liam is… rude, arrogant, intimidating and lazy. He’s the angriest man you’ll ever meet. He’s like a man with a fork in a world of soup." But Liam wants to reassure fans the rift doesn’t mean a split is likely - insisting the brothers have never got on.
He says, "(Things are) not good. Not good. He likes Oasis and I like Oasis, so I’m not leaving and he’s not leaving, so we gotta do it, but we don’t get on, so I can’t be a**ed, man. He’s different and I’m different. We’ve done well, 15 years at it - 15 years of having problems together, we’ve done pretty well.
And he believes the band feeds off the Gallaghers’ feuding: "I think the minute we start getting happy and holding hands and being like other bands then I think it’ll be over. This is the tension, it’s like he wants to outdo me and I want to outdo him".

Rockers AEROSMITH have settled a lawsuit filed by fans in Hawaii over a cancelled concert - by offering to play a free gig there.
The Walk This Way hitmakers have been embroiled in the feud since they scrapped a planned show in Maui on 26 September 2007.
And fans who planned to attend subsequently launched a legal action - claiming the band cancelled the date to focus on a more lucrative gig in Chicago, Illinois earlier that month.
But now attorneys for the group have settled the case by announcing they will reimburse all the concert-goers’ travel costs, handling fees and other expenses incurred by the cancellation.
They will also play a show in Maui, giving all original ticket-holders free entry.
Aerosmith’s lawyer, Jay Handlin, revealed the rockers are happy with the settlement: "The band is about the music. So they are glad to be able to resolve this in a way that really focuses on connecting or reconnecting the people of Hawaii with the band and its music." A date for the gig has yet to be announced, but it is believed the show will take place in September or October (09) after the band wraps up its North America tour.

THE HILLS stars HEIDI MONTAG and SPENCER PRATT have walked down the aisle for real - marrying in a ceremony in Pasadena, California.
The couple staged a bogus ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in November (08), but have now officially wed at the Westminster Presbyterian Church on Saturday (25Apr09).
After the ceremony the couple’s guests, including Pete Wentz, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, and singer Michael Buble, enjoyed a lavish reception at Los Angeles’ Beverly Wilshire Hotel.
And a spokesperson for the pair, who allowed the ceremony to be filmed for an episode of The Hills, confirmed the wedding was genuine.
The rep says, "Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt joined hands in marriage. Dr. Twining F. Campbell served as pastor in front of 200 family and friends." While Pratt’s sister, Stephanie, one of Montag’s bridesmaids, adds, "It was amazing. Heidi looked amazing. She was wearing a million dollars worth of diamonds over a strapless Monique Lhuillier dress. I was up there, and her back was towards me, so I don’t know if she was crying. Everything worked out great."

Actress SAMANTHA MORTON was convicted of threatening a girl with a knife when she was a teenager - following years of bullying while she was living in a care home.
The Minority Report star spent most of her childhood living in institutions in Nottingham, England.
And Morton, 31, has revealed she was tormented by bullies throughout her youth - and when she finally retaliated it led to a conviction and detention in a youth attendance centre at the age of 14.
The two times Oscar-nominee confronted the bullies and held a knife to an older girl’s throat, but was arrested and charged with attempted murder.
She was eventually convicted of a lesser charge of making threats to kill.
Morton says, "I was physically abused and I retaliated. (But) the only person I hurt in the end was myself.
"I didn’t touch her - wouldn’t have touched her - but the police restrained and then arrested me.
"I was locked in a cell for three days. It was terrible. I just sat there thinking, I don’t want this life - I’m not a petty criminal. I’m not a thug. I was so ashamed of myself." The star believes her 18-week sentence helped steer her away from a life of crime, and in future she hopes to take a break from acting to work with children in care.
Morton was first placed in care as a baby and, after a brief spell living with her father, spent the rest of her youth in a variety of foster and care homes.
