MISCHA Barton has claimed that she was told to sleep with Leonardo DiCaprio when she was 19 years old.
The stunning model and actress, now 37, paved a successful career at an early age.
Among her roles, Mischa has played Marissa Cooper in The O.C., Kyra Collins in The Sixth Sense, and Vicky Austin in A Ring of Endless Light.
And in a 2005 interview, Mischa claimed that when she was 19 she was told to sleep with the Titanic actor, who was 30 at the time.
Leonardo had just broken up with his girlfriend Gisele Bundchen at the time after a rocky six-year romance.

Mischa explained that her then-publicist Craig Schneider had seen Leo at a photoshoot, and said to her: “For the sake of your career, go and sleep with that man.”
The star continued to add to Harpers & Queen that she had “no interest in older men", adding: “Isn’t Leo, like, 30 or something?”
Leonardo has just come under fire after being seen with a 19-year-old model named Eden.
Sources close to the star were forced to hit back at claims the pair were dating after they were seen together at the same event.
After huge backlash online about the 48-year-old, a source said: “They were seated next to each other at a music-listening party. There were a number of people at that event.”
It comes after a psychologist told The Sun that Leo will end up on the shelf if he doesn’t pack in his partying.
Since splitting from his long-term girlfriend, Argentinian actress Camillia Morone, Leo DiCaprio has been spotted relentlessly living it up with a string of different women.
Jo Hemmings told The U.S Sun: “Leo's nudging 50 yet still has this Peter Pan eternal youth to his excesses.
"He's also a bit of a risk taker and is rarely seen without a cigarette dangling from his lips or fingers or surrounded by models.
"Otherwise, with no family responsibilities, Leo seems to be extending and celebrating both his successful career and his free personal life for as long as he can.

"As an only child of divorced parents, he’d probably have been over-indulged by both parents growing up.
"They'd have ensured that any guilt they felt at splitting up wouldn’t impact a young, talented, and impressionable Leo.
"It's this indulgence, combined with the fact that he doesn’t have any children of his own, that has enabled him to extend his youthful behavior and party for as long as possible.
"There are many men of his age who are already tied to all the financial and emotional commitments of having a young family.
"They might cast an envious glance at both his record of dating young, beautiful women and his seemingly carefree approach to life."
