She was busted on suspicion of DUI, possession of marijuana and a controlled substance, and driving without a valid license… but, finally released on a $10,000 bail @ 10:10am today from the West Hollywood Sheriff’s station. TMZ caught the starlet sneaking out the back and making a getaway in the backseat of her parents’ black Mercedes.

According to a press release issued by the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, the former “O.C.” star was pulled over early this morning around 2:45 AM as she was driving in West Hollywood, Calif. Cops say she “was seen straddling two lanes of traffic and failed to signal when making a turn.” When deputies pulled her over, they determined that she “was an unlicensed driver and was driving while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage.” ~TMZ

TMZ has followed this developing story and apparently, her black SUV is still sitting in the impound lot, many hours after she was released. Well, I have to say, what a stupid life move Mischa, but a fantastic career move. She must have been jealous of the other girls’ mugshots, and so decided to go out and get what’s hers! It’s amazing how she’s now back in the spotlight. Step aside Lilo. Oh, and Nicole… ever since she got preggers, she hasn’t been much fun. Is Mischa going to be the next Hollywood bad girl? God knows Britney needs a break.
