What's that famous line from Shakespeare about "protesting too much?"
Oh well. Anyway, Mischa Barton is defending her much publicized "girl-on-girl" kiss during Paris Fashion Week.
On her blog, the actress writes:
"As I'm sure most of you have already seen, I was photographed at my 23rd birthday party engaging in what most of the gossip blogs refer to as a 'girl-on-girl kiss.' Well, I just wanted to take this moment to clear the air by saying that the kiss was purely platonic! We were joking around and it was taken out of context.
"The anonymous female I was photographed with is actually my close friend Irina. Irina works as a model in Paris and since meeting a few months ago we have been spending a lot of time together. We share a lot of the same interests and I really enjoy her company. I guess you can say she's become my Paris partner in crime!
"So no, I haven't switched teams. In fact, I have someone else that is keeping me occupied at the moment ;)"
