Mischa Barton says cellulite pics are faked

Paparazzi photos of Mischa Barton's lumpy thighs ended up in celebrity mags and tabloids recently, including Britain's Daily Mail, causing the former O.C. starlet to cry foul.

She initially told Ok!, "Every woman does have cellulite! I just feel like the photographers try to get the most unflattering shots." But now shes saying some digital trickery had to have been involved.

"Those photos are doctored," Barton's rep, Lisa Perkins, told the New York Daily News. "I'm not saying she's perfect, nobody is. But they've given a 22-year-old woman the legs and bottom of an 80-year-old."

And what's Perkins have for proof?

"Look at the shots that were taken shortly before on a beach in L.A. Did she develop all that cellulite in a couple of weeks? There's a lot you can do with Photoshopping."

Believe us, we know; but does that mean these were faked? Look at the pics in question here and sound off below.
