Mischa Barton made her way back into the spotlight this week after opening up to People about her breakdown in 2009.


"I was under enormous pressure," the "O.C." star told the magazine, speaking openly about her personal struggles in detail for the first time. "I went through a tough spot where everything compounded on me, and it was like a perfect storm, like everything was happening to me at once."


Now, Barton admits she's "learned a lot" from her experiences and is ready to speak out about tough times, saying, "I'm stronger now."


In other news, Kim Kardashian posted a risque Instagram photo this week, posing in a sexy white swimsuit. And Kanye West seemed to be a fan of the snapshot, tweeting, "HEADING HOME NOW" soon after she shared it.


Speaking of famous figures, Kate Hudson's body is amazing. The actress poses in a sports bra and spandex shorts for the November cover of Shape and displays her incredible abs for the issue.


“I work out to feel great but also to look great,” she tells the magazine. “There’s no way a woman gets up to work out at 6:30 a.m. just for the mood boost. She wants to fit into her jeans and look fantastic too.”


Also this week, Kendall and Kylie Jenner partied at a club while still underage, Vanity Fair's editor revealed the magazine is running a Gwyneth Paltrow takedown article and Lauren Conrad got engaged.
