It's a simple fix just to edit the /bin/activate file from the virtualenv directory and add the following lines,
_OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH="$PATH"
PATH="$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin:$PATH"
PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin/"
export PATH
That's it, just make sure you match your paths to your own configuration. Now MySQL-python installs under virtualenv as normal.

adding this line
PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin/" has done the trick.Also it can help you, especially if you use MacOS X
pip install MySQL-python (error)
echo "mysql_config = /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config" >> ~/.virtualenvs/ENV_NAME/build/MySQL-python/site.cfg
pip install MySQL-python (it's ok)

This worked for me, though I am using MAMP and had to adjust the path to:
/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql_config
