Two big thumbs up to Mischa:

The OC star Mischa Barton is unlikely to become the latest celebrity Kabbalah follower or a Buddhist - she hates 'show business religions'.

The British-born actress insists she'll never become one of "those people" who seek spiritual enlightenment from a trendy religion, and mocks the likes of Demi Moore and Madonna who do.

She says, "I'm not one of these people really into the latest fetishes like yoga or the Kabbalah. I can't imagine anything worse than wearing a trendy red bracelet around my arm and running around saying, 'I'm at peace with myself.'"

In other news, construction is underway in Beverly Hills on several mansions for the gurus of the kabbala sect that numbers Madonna and Demi Moore among its faithful.

The homes, which are said to cost at least $2 million each, are being constructed as kabbalah-friendly dwellings.

You Said

Kaballah friendly. Am I alone in wondering what that means?

Does the staff live in Sub-Zero refrigerator boxes instead of Frigidaire?
