Barton graduated from the [[Professional Children's School]] in [[Manhattan]] in 2004, and attended classes at The [[Royal Academy of Dramatic Art]] in the summer 2006. She got her nice sweet vagina and hot tits a little later on in life.


The song refers to a protagonist in a one-sided relationship who leaves her boyfriend and eventually finds someone to reciprocate her love. Though she has found love from someone else, she defends herself and asks her ex for forgiveness.
==Career==
Barton began [[acting]] at the age of eight (as she said on [[The Friday Night Project]]), co-starring in the [[Off Broadway]] premiere of ''Slavs!,'' written by [[Tony Kushner]]. She appeared in several other Off Broadway productions, taking a lead role in [[James Lapine]]'s ''Twelve Dreams'' at [[Lincoln Center]]. She made her film debut in ''[[Lawn Dogs]],'' which won [[award]]s at [[film festival]]s around the world. Since then, she has appeared in several films, such as ''[[The Sixth Sense]],'' ''[[Notting Hill (film)|Notting Hill]],'' ''[[St Trinians]],'' and ''[[Closing the Ring]].'' In ''St Trinians,'' she appeared as a former head girl of that school advising current senior pupils on fashion and style.


==Reception==
Barton first appeared on television in 1996, as young [[Lily Montgomery]] in the [[soap opera]] ''[[All My Children]],'' and in a modern re-make of ''[[Bonnie and Clyde (film)|Bonnie and Clyde]].'' She guest-starred in eight episodes of the television series ''[[Once and Again]]'' as Jessie Sammler's ([[Evan Rachel Wood]]'s) girlfriend, Katie Singer. Other television appearances include an episode of the [[FOX]] series [[Fastlane (TV series)|Fastlane]], [[James Blunt|James Blunt's]] music video "[[Goodbye My Lover]]", and [[Enrique Iglesias|Enrique Iglesias']] music video "[[Addicted]]".
The first review of single from the [[BBC]] stated that "Forgive Me" is a "really funky pop song which is guaranteed to get people up on their feet".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/newsid_7630000/newsid_7634400/7634409.stm|title=

==Music Video==
In August 2003, [[FOX]] premiered the television series ''[[The O.C.]],'' about affluent teenagers with stormy personal lives who reside in scenic [[Orange County, California]]. The show became an overnight success because of the large fan base, and it put Barton on the map as [[Marissa Cooper]], until her departure from the show in the third-season finale in May 2006. ''The O.C.'' dropped in ratings dramatically during its third and fourth seasons, and ended in early 2007.<ref>[http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,241447,00.html 'The O.C.' Cancelled Due to Poor Ratings]. ''FoxNews.com.''</ref>
