Apparently it wasn't always sunny for one "The O.C." star. Cam Gigandet, who played Kevin Volchok on the Fox teen drama, had some choice words for his former co-stars in a recent interview.

Gigandet, who also starred in Twilight and Burlesque, was asked by Elle magazine if he ever stayed in touch with his co-workers from "The O.C.".

"No. Actually, Ben McKenzie was kind of mean to me," he said. "I hadn't done anything at the point and he was a little bit of an ass. But I love him. I think he's a great actor and I love Southland."





When asked about Mischa Barton, Gigandet was dismissive.

"Mischa? I didn't really... was she there? I don't even have memories of her."





It sounds like Gigandet's whole experience on the show was a drag.

"I learned a lot," he said of being on the series. "But the things that I remember now—none of them are good. It was only the third or fourth season. Those kids were f---ing miserable. They were just—they would not remember their lines on purpose. They were young. That said, I don't talk to anyone I've ever worked with."



Gigandet can next be seen in CBS' upcoming legal drama "Reckless", which premieres Sunday at 9/8c.
