Hollywood good girl Amanda Bynes was arrested early Friday morning under the suspicion of driving while under the influence.

Say it ain’t so Amanda!  Say it ain’t so!

The 26-year-old actress was taken to a West Hollywood jail and released Saturday morning on $5,000 bail.  The typically well-behaved Easy A star appears to have been letting loose of late, dying her hair purple and taking to her Twitter to announce,

Live fast die young bad girls do it well !

What happened to the sweet, young thing who dressed up as her own biggest fan on The Amanda Show?

Actress Amanda Bynes pulled a Miley Cyrus by officially deleting her Twitter account (@chicky). The 24 year-old, who plays a mean girl in Emma Stone’s new movie “Easy A”, was apparently tired of all the hateful messages she was getting every time she tweeted something completely irrational or too revealing… or totally dumb!

During Amanda’s stint on Twitter, we have learned she likes to date black men, hot men, hunky man and horny men. Amanda also announced her retirement from acting to get some media attention and then, a month later, she decided to un-retire.

For now… RIP @chicky!! We could bet Amanda will be back on Twitter in less than a month.

Short lived and not really all that surprising, actress Amanda Bynes has announced she is no longer retired from acting.

The Nickelodeon teen superstar (who moved onto the big screen with movies What A Girl Wants and She’s The Man and then back to television costarring at Jennie Garth’s daughter on What I Like About You) tweeted last month that she’d had enough of the Tinseltown rat race and was retiring at the age of 24. Today, she tweeted the simple statement “I’m unretired.” For good? Long enough to promote her new film due in September? For an hour? Maybe another tweet will come along from the actress and set the record straight. In the meantime, she wants you check out the trailer for her upcoming movie Easy A with Emma Stone, Cam Gigandet, and Aly Michalka. Do it, for Amanda’s sake!

Actress Amanda Bynes just announced her retirement from acting on Twitter, claiming that she is no longer having fun. The former Nickelodeon star, best known for her roles in “She’s The Man” and “Hairspray”, is only 24 years old.

Amanda tweeted, “I’ve never written the movies & tv shows I’ve been apart of I’ve only acted like the characters the producers or directors wanted me to play. 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,” she added.

We hope Amanda will reconsider her decision. She is still so young. Amanda’s last movie as an actress is “Easy A” starring Emma Stone (watch movie trailer here).

Actress Amanda Bynes looks absolutely stunning and gorgeous on the cover of the latest issue, the Valentine’s Day issue, of Maxim Magazine (February 2010). The 23 year-old actress thinks this sexy, yet very classy photo shoot will show that she is not a little girl anymore. She is a woman and she is HOT sexy!!

Here are some highlights from Amanda Bynes’ Maxim interview:

Posing for us is the greatest Valentine’s Day gift we can imagine. Thank you! “I’m honored! I had the best time on this shoot. I think every shot I did was sexy. Some people still see me as a kid, but I’m a 23-year-old woman now.”

You want to show the world you’re all grown up? “I want to show people who I am. My parents were like, “Does this mean you’re gonna do sexy movies now?” I said, “Well, if they’re done the right way, then maybe!” I mean, I’m not gonna do porn, but if it’s a Leonardo DiCaprio movie or whatever…”

Oh, we get it. If a scene involves making out with Leo DiCaprio, then it’s OK? “Ha, yeah, then I wouldn’t mind! Point is, it’s time for me to start making my own decisions.”

Actress Amanda Bynes looks absolutely awkwardly Photoshopped on the cover of the latest issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine (January 2010). Amanda is such a beautiful girl that we cannot understand why would someone attempt to put her head on someone else’s body!

Anyway Amanda talks about her desire to have a long acting career and what she looks for in a man, someone to share something more special with. Here are some highlights:

On her career: “I’m at that stage where I’m still young and maybe naive, but I’m figuring it out. All I want is to continue – to have a long career. I want to do stuff that I’m passionate about.”

On what she wants in a potential relationship: “I want someone who’ll be there and who I can trust – that’s really important to me.”

She is someone who has said she never wants to get married and now Amanda Bynes is split from her boyfriend of one year, Doug Reinhardt. It appears her friends didn’t trust the baseball player, believing he was using her for fame.

“She ended it. She had had enough,” a source close to the actress tells Usmagazine.com. “Her friends didn’t trust him. Everyone thought he was using her for celebrity. He was not good, and she was over it. It was definitely her who ended it.”

Ouch! Sounds like she needed to get rid of him.
