'12
After spending the last two months in an endless cycle of booze, car accidents, arrests and would-be, should-be arrests, Amanda Bynes has issued a statement about her tendency to drink-and-drive, and about her DUI charge. That statement was made via her Twitter:
YES. She tweeted President Obama and asked him nicely, “Please fire the cop who arrested me.” ARE YOU JOKING? I hope to hell she was high and drunk when she tweeted that, because if she was stone-cold sober, I’ll have to think that she’s a flat-out moron. Besides all that, her denial of “I don’t drink” and “I also don’t hit and run” is bulls–t. Does she think people will believe her over the mounting evidence that she hits-and-runs on a now weekly basis?
Anyway, Amanda seems to have tweeted this nonsense in direct response to a misdemeanor charge being filed against her officially. This misdemeanor DUI charge is related to her original arrest on April 6 – where she (drunkenly) SMASHED INTO A COP CAR. Upon her arrest, she refused to complete a Breathalyzer, so I guess Amanda’s justification for her consistently horrible driving in the wee hours (after she’s been clubbing and bar-hopping) is that she’s simply a horrible driver. If she’s convicted (I hope), she’ll face 48 hours in jail, three years probation and a nine-month alcohol program. And that’s basically it. Because California is soft on drunk drivers.

Not to annoyingly bring up an unrelated celeb in a thread that has nothing to do with her BUT why do we irrationally hate on girls like K-Stew when THIS Amanda Bynes chick (who is a legitimate brat) exists? Sorry but this chick seems like a complete moron and a spoiled, narcissistic jerk. Yeah, Amanda-I’m sure Obama is putting your “request” at the top of his list. *eye roll*

Hi Kitten!
Agreed. It does seem kind of silly – especially since Kristen is sooooo… boring (in a gossip sense I mean). There are never any scandals or anything, she doesn’t really do anything to warrant hatred in my opinion. Some think she’s being ungrateful for her succes but honestly I don’t see the way she handles the fame, money or anything to differ much from Roberts. They kind of seem like the same person to me – as in, none of them are really comfortable with celebrity but are grateful for their fans and succes. None of them really expected it so I guess they got really surprised. Aaaaand they’re both introverts/quiet so I guess that figures in too.
Anyways, what I was trying to say is.. I really have no idea. The Kardashians I get, Lohan, Rimes all of those I get but for the life of me I will never get the hate for Kristen. Especially since she doesn’t really ping on my radar and I didn’t really think people cared about her (at least enough to hate her) before reading the comments here. Same for another celeb but I won’t mention her name because I don’t want to start a war.
Edit: Haha, this got a lot longer then I’d thought
Sorry for the rant.

ASLI! How are you, girl?
Exactly. And the thing is that everyone calls Kristen an ungrateful brat. THIS Bynes girl is the DEFINITION of an ungrateful brat. Self-absorbed and excusatory about everything she does. Kristen Stewart might be a bit awkward at times but she isn’t a brat IMO.

I’m great, thanks
How are you?
And completely agree. I just had to laugh at the ridiculousness of that tweet. Someone has to be extremely dumb/drunk or high to think the President cares about a D-list actress’ DUI charges. It’s not like that doesn’t happen on a regular basis in Hollywood *eye roll*

It’s a good point, Kitten. I do try to stay out of the Kristen bashing, even though she is annoying and I really have to remind myself to be nice. But, you’re right, there are far more worthy people to critique, particularly ungrateful, entitled brats who are incapable of taking responsibility for themselves. This one has now put herself right into focus. She’s fair game.

Thanks, Sarahtonin. Yeah I mean, I’m not trying to be up-front and center with the Kristen-defending. Not a Twi-hard or anything but I just think we should transfer the bulls-eye from Kristen to Bynes, KK, Lilo or anyone other celebasshole really…Although, I must admit that there’s no shortage of hatred towards Kim and Lindsay on this site

I’m with you on this, Kitten. I do think like this already. Well, I don’t really respect any of them to be honest, they are all famewhores who play the media. But some are worse than others and really are deserving of flack, eg Lohan, Me!Ann, KK, and now Bynes etc.
As long as we can still have no limits on Tom Cruise bashing though, I’m happy. Because if anyone deserves it, he does. Apart from being a control-freak, he has actually ruined other people’s lives promoting CO$, not just his own like Blohan. For that, he deserves all we can give.

Here is a cold hard fact.
Had Amanda not been drinking, she would have done the Breathalyzer. Period.
It is not against the law to be a moron who can’t drive. And even hitting the dang cop car, would have just ended with her insurance company paying to have it repaired.
Yet being buzzed and clipping a parked cop car, will not end well.
But she knew she had been drinking. The bar knew she had been drinking. And she refused the Breathalyzer because she knew she would fail it.
And if Bynes keeps up this indignant act. She is going to end up spending a few weeks in LA county lockup. Just like Paris Hilton did for being just as stupid and indignant.

If she’s not drunk driving, she’s doing a perfect imitation of a drunk driver – including refusing any test when asked by law enforcement. That means a 1 year license suspension, but if she’s not drunk she’s the worst driver in the world and should be permanently off the road. I think she’s delusional if she thinks anyone, including Obama, believes she’s stumbling out of bars and getting into wrecks and there is no connection between the two… well good luck with that. Sad & stupid is no way to go through life.

Samigirli, I couldn’t figure out how to respond directly to your barefoot running post, but don’t do it. I tried it with the Vibrams and it made my feet worse. I had to get expensive, custom orthotics as a result. My orthopedist explained that some people are able to do it; however, some feet are not mechanically and structurally able to without making problems worse. Just my two sense.

No. She’s just got a big face. I used to take my niece to her movies, but all of a sudden when she grew up, hit like 18, her face was big. On the big screen it was noticeable. I knew then she wouldn’t transition to movies as an adult actress. Her career dying after working throughout her tween/teen years must have affected her. She would be better as a TV actress, but with her odd behavior it isn’t helping her career.

Again, Amanda, DUI stands for Driving Under the Influence in the state of California (that’s where you live). It doesn’t HAVE to be alcohol; could be street drugs, could be prescription drugs; could be a combination of them. (And there’d better be some mind-altering reason you tweeted that dumbass thing to the POTUS!)
And if you’re not drinking, what substance are you using, because DAMN. Sober people generally don’t HIT A COP CAR, PERIOD. But then, to drive off like nothing happened?
Get your act together, girl!

Cali’s not “soft on DUI’s.” LA County sure seems like it, but only for the “famous” people. Now, juxtapose that with the story of the SD Charger who was arrested by the SD Sheriffs for DUI IN HIS OWN CUL-DE-SAC! (There some other circumstances, I believe – it’s been awhile.) Not ALL of Cali is like LA.
Remember my story on the last AB thread? The one about one of my residents who got a DUI? Her life was nearly ruined by her stupid, drunken choice, and she didn’t hit ANYBODY.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
LA county had a pilot program where anyone arrested for DUI at .08%+ automatically has to get an ignition interlock device (breathalyzer) installed in their care for a certain amount of time before they can have their license back. No exceptions. Don’t have a car? Too bad. Suspended until you get it.

If she really refused upon arrest then she’s automatically got a one year suspension from CA DMV’s Admin Per Se laws. If she’s got any priors that number goes up.

In Texas you have to submit to a breathalizer or else it’s a forced blood test.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Same in MN. If you don’t take the breathalyzer they take you into custody for a blood test.
Actually, this is kind of funny (but only because she’s better now) – when my cousin was a teenager she became an alcoholic. She was arrested for a DUI and wouldn’t do the breathalyzer on scene. She was booked in jail for being difficult and uncooperative, and they were going to give her one more chance to do the breathalyzer before making her do the blood test. She yelled all kinds of obscenities and told them where they could shove the breathalyzer, demanded a snack because she was hungry and wanted to know why they didn’t have a vending machine, started kicking and yelling even worse things when they restrained her, and then had to read the transcript of what she had said aloud in court. Talk about embarrassing. That was her last brush with the law, and 6 years later she’s doing great, a college graduate, etc. I think that kind of humiliation, of having to read aloud what you said when you were out of your mind high or drunk and acting like a complete tool, is exactly what some of these starlets need.

CHIEF OF STAFF: “Well, this morning you have a meeting with the economic council on the stock market, a delegation from the mid-east around noon, a meeting with the attorney general regarding court cases this afternoon, and a tweet from Amanda Bynes.

Look, Amanda. You’re not 18. You’re a real adult. So put on your big girl panties and start acting like one. Yes, you have problems that need help. And therapy. And as an adult, you are fully capable of booking yourself some appointments with a therapist, checking yourself into rehab, or whatever it is you need to do. Stop blaming other people for your issues – it’s not going to help you heal from whatever you’re hurting from.

They usually give you a field sobriety test first before they administer a breathalizer. If you are under the influence of something, I doubt your gonna care if the mouthpiece is sanitized, but I would think that they would be to avoid contamination of the results.

@Skeptical – “ How do you know if the motuhpiece is clean? I wouldn’t like being told to put something in mymouth when I didn’t know where it had been!”
I agree, not only for the gross factor, but for the chances of contaminated results of the test. I was looking online to see about whether the police are held responsible for keeping the machines clean after each use, but couldn’t find anything.
The closest I found was that some models have a detachable mouth-piece that is removed & replaced with a new one after every use. But not all of them are like that.
