Single Mischa Barton

Mischa Barton says she is single "for the first time" in her life and is fed up with dating "immature" men.

The former 'O.C.' star is happy being single and says her next man will be funny and intellectual.

She told Elle magazine: "I like an intellectual guy, because I love to read. If they like movies, books and music, we're pretty alright.

"And I'd like someone who's mature. God, I can't take another immature person!"

Barton, 21, previously dated Whitestarr rocker Cisco Adler before the pair split in February after nude pictures of him were found among Paris Hilton's belongings.

She also dated oil heir Brandon Davis for over a year until he was caught on tape branding 'Mean Girls' actress Lindsay Lohan a "firecrotch".

Despite her links with Hilton and Lohan, Barton is keen to set herself apart from her troubled contemporaries.

She said: "The media has created a fake 'Young Hollywood' where everyone hangs out together and everybody knows each other. It couldn't be further from the truth. I feel so different from those girls."
