Amanda Bynes - the next Aaron Carter?

Uh oh.

Septum piercing + face tattoo = Advanced Demi Lovato. Or what I think Lovato will be like after she's past her expiration date. This is sad though, I think something really bad must have happened to Amanda in her childhood/teen years to make her so messed up. Maybe Jennie Garth fondled her.

Her skin looks good, not overly facetuned.

R3, this guy is one creepy dude. He's the producer for all those Nickelodeon shows. Rumors were he got Britney Spears's sister pregnant. I don't know about that but he is shady.

R5, according to her lawyers and parents, she has never been diagnosed with anything. Maybe we should interpret that to mean "never officially diagnosed". There has to be something there.

Schneider is an obese man and his wife sells diet advice. Why would anyone take her advice when she failed her own family?

Based on the timing of when people went wacko, wasn't Aaron Carter the next Amanda Bynes, who was the next Lohan, who was the next Corey (take your pick), who were the next Dana Plato?

Yeah, she did a bunch of fun teen movies, like Lohan, before going off the rails, like Lohan.

Her parents were very old when they had her.

I wonder if that age of eggs and older sperm contributed to some latent onset mental illness.

I believe she is in denial of her bipolar disorder and only takes her medication for it sporadically. If you EVER go off the meds, manic episodes ensue.

by Anonymousreply 21December 31, 2019 7:39 PM

It was a different guy who knocked up Britany Spears sister, not Dan Schneider.

And Amanda Bynes was loony tunes, even as a teen. I heard stuff behind the scenes about the behind the scenes of the sitcom she did with Jenny Garth. Ironically, what I heard, got posted here on the DL 10 years later, by someone who worked on the show, so there must've been some truth to it. It was basically, her being sexually inappropriate with Jenny's husband and certain crew members. (i.e. leaving her dressing room door open and changing her clothes.) I have no idea if she was having addiction issues or mental illness issues in the early 2000's. She would've been around 18 or 20 back then and I think her problems emerged much later. Not positive, though.

But, I'm sorry, anyone who tats their face has some mental deficiency, IMO.

Also, that looks nothing like what my mind recalls Bynes looking like. She looks like Mylie Cyrus or something. Did she have some pretty drastic work done?

I can't. I can't with my childhood entertainers losing their shit as they age. It's tragic... the relationship humans have with image.

She must have some sort of official diagnosis, no matter what her parents say. To everyone here talking about "predators ", you're being very simplistic. People can become damaged and mentally ill for all sorts of reasons, not all of them relating to sex abuse . Genetics, bad experiences with peers, dysfunctional family dynamics and chronic stress are just some of the other things that can screw up someone's head. Not every mentally ill person is that way as a result of molestation .

by Anonymousreply 29January 1, 2020 6:04 AM

R26 were they? I only remember when she asked Drake to murder her vagina.

R29 you're right, but in this case I do think sexual abuse was involved.

At least the tattoo is not near her eye. She can have is lasered off.

by Anonymousreply 31January 1, 2020 7:21 AM

I give her a huge pass. She has mental issues far beyond her control, much like Britters. Schizophrenia is the one remaining mental health issue that still freaks people out, so, like Britney, she has to lay low when things get especially bad. She can't go on the TV circut, be an advocate for a more "acceptable" condition and get some support while doing so. This poor kid.

by Anonymousreply 32January 1, 2020 7:31 AM

I think Amanda suffers from a schizoaffective disorder based on her meltdown some years back—she and her parents tried to claim it was too much pot and drugs, but it was obvious something else was going on. She exhibited a number signs that pointed toward schizophrenia. It is possible she is not adhering to her therapy and is relapsing. Schizophrenics have to be consistent with their antipsychotic meds, and any sort of lapse can cause a lot of problems. It is really sad because, like many people, I grew up watching her. She was a talented, funny kid. Unfortunately, I don't think there will ever be a bouncing back for her in regards to her career.

by Anonymousreply 33January 1, 2020 7:49 AM

Can we get a law passed that states it's illegal to tattoo your face...or have anyone tattoo your face?! What's happening to some screwed up people these days is for them to become even more screwed up. This has to stop. No more tattooing anyone's face.

by Anonymousreply 34January 1, 2020 8:42 AM

The story about Bynes changing with the door open on her sitcom aged 18-20 makes sex abuse seem like a distinct possibility. Abuse victims are often hypersexual in the aftermath.

by Anonymousreply 35January 1, 2020 11:23 AM

I hope all these former Nickelodeon women get their revenge in the form of success & healing for what undoubtedly happened.

I thought at one point Jennette McCurdy (former actress of iCARLY and later SAM & CAT) might be the one to topple the house of cards, but she’s moving on with her life and that’s probably a good thing.

R38, to answer your question, one word: MONEY. And lots of it.

by Anonymousreply 42January 1, 2020 5:42 PM

CA has laws on the books (including Lanterman-Petris Short Act) that place the freedom and autonomy of mentally ill people as the priority. It is extremely difficult to get mentally ill patients held longer than 10 days and forcibly medicated, much less placed on a conservatorship. CA law favors upholding individuals' civil liberties, and those liberties are not easily taken away.

Placing a person on a conservatorship is done when that person is considered gravely disabled (in a legal sense) due to serious mental illness. Typically 2-3 doctors' opinions who have treated /evaluated the person are needed to justify conservatorship. Drug addiction alone does not qualify.

There is no way a judge would approve Amanda being on a conservatorship without meeting those strict criteria established by the LPS Act.

There's a few clips of a 23-year old Youtuber going around where she's drunk or high and her producer was making out with her, not realizing she was livestreaming everything. You hear about this shit but to actually hear him panic when he realize she's recording it and telling her she can't post it because it will ruin things is so disturbing.
