Beauty meets
brains as actress Mischa Barton joins Microsoft chairman Bill Gates
to launch a multi-coloured watch.
One to one meetings with the duo
are being offered by Swatch as the Swiss watch firm unveils its
latest accessory - appropriately named the Paparazzi.
Eighteen-year-old Mischa
Barton is best known as the lead in The OC, which has taken
the world of television by storm.
Her most recent film role is in thriller Octane and she
has also featured in The Sixth Sense, alongside Bruce Willis,
and in Notting Hill with Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant.
Bill Gates is the
billionaire chairman of the Microsoft Corporation, which he
set up with his childhood friend Paul Allen in 1975.
Olympic champion Carl Lewis, billed as the greatest
track and field athlete of all time, also joined the duo to launch
the watch.
Swatch is offering a chance to join Mischa Barton
on the set of The OC, tour the Consumer Electronics Show with Bill
Gates or train with Carl Lewis in a personal session.
