Amanda Bynes Shocks with Bold Two-Toned Hair and Lady Gaga Vibes
Amanda Bynes' Shocking Transformation: From Child Star to Adult Sensation
The spotlight has once again shone brightly on Amanda Bynes, and this time, she's not just about her acting career. The 39-year-old former child star, who rose to fame with hits like "Big Fat Liar" and "Easy A," has been making waves with her bold new look and surprising revelations.
Just weeks after announcing that she had gotten lip fillers, Bynes was spotted sporting a daring two-toned hairdo while out in Los Angeles. The platinum blonde on top of her thick mane starkly contrasted with the black dye on the back of her head, leaving fans and paparazzi alike buzzing about the edgy new 'do.
But that's not all - Bynes' style game was also on point as she stepped out in an oversized Lady Gaga T-shirt, white athleisure slacks, and sleek black-and-white Nike sneakers. The overall look was effortlessly chic, especially considering she opted for a no-makeup, natural vibe behind her signature black-framed glasses.
This latest sartorial experiment comes hot on the heels of Bynes' decision to trade in Hollywood glamour for a life of design and creativity. In 2019, the actress graduated from the prestigious Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM), paving the way for her transition into the world of fashion.
But what's perhaps even more fascinating is Bynes' willingness to push boundaries and explore new frontiers in her personal life. The former child star has been open about her struggles with mental health and substance abuse, but it seems she's now focusing on self-care and wellness. In a candid Instagram story, Bynes revealed that she was embarking on a weight loss journey using the popular diabetes medication Ozempic, vowing to shed around 40 pounds.
The motivation behind this drastic change? To look better in paparazzi pictures! "I'm going on Ozempic," Bynes gushed. "So excited. I'm 173 now so I hope to get down to like 130, which would be awesome." The starlet also shared that she had gained 20 pounds due to depression, and it's clear that she's determined to take control of her health.
But what really has tongues wagging is the news that Bynes' fans can soon expect more from their beloved actress. In a bold move, she announced plans to launch an OnlyFans account, promising to connect with fans through direct messages without compromising on content. "Disclaimer: I'm doing onlyfans to chat with my fans through dm's," she revealed in her Instagram Stories. "I won't be posting any sleazy content."
Meanwhile, Bynes' co-stars are also singing her praises. Frankie Muniz, who starred alongside the actress in "Big Fat Liar" and later became close friends, recently shared a heartwarming anecdote about his time with Bynes. The former child star revealed that he had turned down a major opportunity to co-host Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards just so he could meet her.
"I had the biggest crush on Amanda," Muniz confessed in an interview with US Weekly. "I was supposed to cohost Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards in 2000 and I knew Amanda was [a presenter]. My mom got a call from Gail Berman, who was the president of Fox, and my mom’s screaming, and she’s like, ‘You got asked to host Saturday Night Live.'
"The Malcolm in the Middle star continued, "The SNL gig was the same date as the Kids' Choice Awards, 'so I turned it down.' That way, I could meet Amanda. We became friends; we talked to each other on AOL. There was never any secret dating. After the premiere of Big Fat Liar, I saw her a few times, but we lost touch."
Muniz couldn't help but gush about Bynes' kindness and professionalism during their time working together. "She was the most professional, happy, easygoing person I ever met," he raved. "I never saw a sign of anything negative... I wish her nothing but happiness."
As Amanda Bynes continues to reinvent herself in the public eye, it's clear that this talented actress has much more up her sleeve than fans initially thought.
