Always Amanda Retires
July 2nd

Following Amanda's announcement of retiring from acting, I feel this is a good time to retire from this website. Things have been extremely quiet the last couple of years with Amanda's career and with her no longer pursuing a career, there really isn't any point in continuing.

The site will remain online in it's current form so you can still access our gallery and other sections for the forseeable future but there will be no new updates.

Thanks for your support over the years (Always Amanda celebrated it's 6th birthday in April!). If you wish to support my other websites, I will be continuing to run PortraitMagazine.Net and KiwiOlsen.Net

Amanda Announces Retirement
June 21st

We haven't seen much of Amanda Bynes since, ummm, her 2007 smash hit Sydney White (you saw it right?), but TV funnygal turned movie star turned Hills dude's girlfriend is bowing out of the acting game at the ripe old age of...24?!

"I don't love acting anymore so I've stopped doing it," Bynes tweeted around 3 a.m. Saturday morning.

But why the sudden change of heart?

According to the onetime Nickelodeon kid, "Being an actress isn't as fun as it may seem. 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."

Bynes, who's headlined not one, but two television shows since age 13, went on to say: "If I don't love something anymore I stop doing it." Hence, the abrupt end to her still-budding acting career...

Easy A Set Visit: Amanda Bynes
May 24th

ComingSoon.net talked to Amanda Bynes on the set of her new film Easy A about the character she says people are going to "love to hate." Wearing a high waisted black skirt, a white buttoned up blouse, heels and a cross necklace, Bynes explained how her "uptight" character causes a lot of drama in the Screen Gems comedy.

Q: Tell us about your character.
Amanda Bynes: Marianne is sort of an uptight, religious girl who has very strong beliefs about virginity and basically, her relationship with Olive is sort of strained because they just don't get along from the get-go.

Q: They were never friends at all?
Bynes: No. So my character has to get over the fact that she finds out that Olive has had sex. Obviously, my character believes in abstinence until marriage so it's a funny relationship they have. They become friends for a few days, like basically, a day and then I plant some information and I hate her again. So, it's really fun for me because I haven't actually gotten to play the 'mean girl.' It's done in a way where you love to hate her because you can't tell that she's evil because she seems so put together and sweet and charming but it's actually that she wants to rule the school. So, it's a really funny role. It's a good one.

Amanda's new film 'Hall Pass'
March 1st

Christina Applegate (Anchorman), Alyssa Milano (“My Name is Earl”), Larry Campbell (Wedding Crashers) and Vanessa Angel (Kingpin) are the latest batch of actors and actresses to be announced for the Farrelly Brothers‘ comedy Hall Pass, which began shooting this week in Atlanta. (With Atlanta standing in for New England.) They join the already announced cast of Owen Wilson, Jenna Fischer, Amanda Bynes, Jason Sudeikis, Stephen Merchant and J.B. Smoove.

Previously:

Wilson stars as Rick, a husband in a dull marriage whose wife gives him a ‘hall pass’ — ie a license to engage in a week’s worth of extra-marital affairs. Sudeikis co-stars as Wilson’s best friend, who also gets a pass to get whatever ass he can.

Stephen Merchant and J.B. Smoove play friends of Rick (Wilson) and Fred (Sudeikis) who “accompany them as they cut loose and attempt to cash their tickets.”

Hall Pass was written by Pete Jones as a spec, then rewritten by Kevin Barnett and Peter and Bobby Farrelly.

New Line picked up the film after Fox put it in turnaround

It sounds like a comedy in line with the tame recent work of the filmmaking brothers rather than the broad, over the top stuff that made them popular in the first place.

Amanda does Maxim

Retract those claws, Bar Refaeli! (Assuming, of course, you and Leonardo DiCaprio are back on.)

As much as we like a good catfight, Amanda Bynes isn't looking to steal your man. She just wants to smooch him onscreen.

In her quest to prove she's no longer that squeaky-clean Nickelodeon kid, the 23-year-old has stripped down for the February issue of Maxim.

Inside, Amanda says that while she's not opposed to doing sexy movies, "I'm not gonna do porn." Yet, if a scene did call for her to lock lips with Leo she'd be all for it.

"Ha, yeah, then I wouldn't mind!" she reveals.

Time will tell if the What a Girl Wants star really gets what she wants.
