Mischa Barton appeared to be vying for the honour of Skinniest TV Hasbeen at Sunday's British Academy Television Awards.

The former OC star posed on the red carpet outside London's Royal Festival Hall in a long dark blue gown that hung off her emaciated frame.

Mischa recently hit back over the attention her dramatic weight loss has received in the press, branding the whole situation "ridiculous" and insisting she is “happier and healthier than ever.”

But, judging by her shocking appearance yesterday, we find that very hard to believe!

The main list of winners is as follows:
Best Actor - Stephen Dillane (The Shooting of Thomas Hurndall)
