Amanda Bynes Retires from Acting

June 21, 2010


It’s a very sad day in Hollywood: Amanda Bynes has retired from acting. We’ll give you a moment to collect yourself…

In a series of Tweets today, the 24-year old actress wrote:

Being an actress isn’t as fun as it may seem. If I don’t love something anymore, I stop doing it. I don’t love acting anymore, so I’ve stopped doing it.

I know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first I’ve #retired.

Bynes has not starred in a movie since 2007’s Hairspray. She anchored her own sitcom, What I Like About You, from 2002 to 2006.

Will you miss Bynes on TV and in films?

Rumored Couple Alert: Amanda Bynes and Drake?

March 22, 2010


She likes his nickname for her and remembers things they said “months ago.” She thinks he’s “worth the wait” and quotes lyrics to express feelings for him.

And they may already be broken up. Such is the life of Amanda Bynes and Drake, supposedly. It was a rumored romance spawned – where else – on Twitter.

Drake termed Amanda “Penny Lane” in one Tweet, and she noted in a message they have something in common: “Drake is half Jewish like me … word!”

Word indeed. “You’re the best, which is why I’m saving you for last,” she wrote, quoting lyrics from Rihanna (linked to Drake herself last year) and Jay-Z.

Bynes then raided iheartquotes.com for further inspiration.

Is (or was) Amanda Bynes the best Drake ever had?

Cute as it sounds, Bynes’ new flame may actually be an old one. On Valentine’s Day, Bynes said she was newly single and was glad she never her man’s identity.

Then this week she wrote, “Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect,” she hinted, quoting J.K. Rowling.

Deep. Whomever the man is, he was rocking Bynes’ world for weeks. She writes: “It’s amazing when someone knows how to love you with out being told.”

Until things went south: “I have a friend I thought was like a sister to me,” she wrote. “She’s been lying to me and has been up to no good with a man I like.”

The actress then added that “Some people make me sick.”

Damn, Drake. Cheating on her with her BFF? Bold, man. Bold and cold, my friend. Bet Amanda’s watching the video of Drake’s on-stage ACL tear on repeat.
