Amanda Bynes was at the Marmont, texting and driving, one week after her DUI

These are some new photos of Amanda Bynes being an idiot last night. She was photographed leaving the Marmont, then driving to a second location to (likely) drink some more. These photos are from her Marmont exit – she hides her face as she’s walking, and then when she got into her car, she started texting and driving, and promptly ran over the curb. So, we don’t know if she had actually consumed alcohol (but I think we can assume so, considering she was at the Marmont, for God’s sake), AND she was texting and driving. She’s a g–damn genius, this one.

These photos come just one week after Amanda was arrested and held for hours for a DUI after she clipped a patrol car while drinking and driving last Thursday. They say Amanda is going to “fight” the charges. They say she’s already hired a big-time lawyer. They say she’s sober… sober as a Lohan. We’ll see.

Speaking of Lohan – who at this point has become the model for all 20-something screwups – remember how she was accused of assaulting a woman at The Standard last Thursday? The woman filed a police report at the time, and Lindsay claimed she was nowhere near The Standard that night, because she was at home, watching Homeland in her crack den. Well, Radar has a story – which you can read here – about an “eyewitness” to the assault who also claims that LL “shoved” this woman. It could be a thing, but it’s probably not. Anyway, I brought this up because someone awesome tweeted me an amazing alternate theory. What if Lindsay hasn’t actually been falsely accused by someone who mistook Amanda Bynes for the Cracken? That theory actually holds up – while there’s no proof that LL was at The Standard last Thursday, Amanda Bynes was definitely there. Could this all be a case of cracked-out mistaken identity?

    TMZ came up with that theory last week – it’s totally plausible. this girl is (also) a train wreck. that loose bandaid on her heel is revolting.

  2. Gene Parmesan says:

    What a sad mess…..Stay home, read a book, i mean start auditiong or soemthing. This does nto make her sympathethic. She wanted to be seen that’s why she went to the marmont.

  3. Franny says:

    oh child, if you have to wear that many bandages on your feet to wear those shoes, you need to buy different shoes. Also, invest in the type that doesn’t come off easily.

    • Tillie says:

      OMG, this was exactly what I was going to say.. 🙂

    • Gradstudenteatinghotpockets says:

      Her feet look so painful! She could use some vasoline or some of the heel guard we would wear for soccer. Geeze.

    • Minky says:

      THIS! Exactly! I sympathize with blisters, as new shoes of any sort always do this to me, but discretion is the better part of valor and those bandaids are not discreet by any means. *sigh*

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Minky, your comment reminded me of Bloom County, when Oliver Wendell Jones needed a band-aid (which he didn’t want to show on his forehead); all the other kids (who happened to be white) offered him a “flesh-tone” band-aid and told him not to worry.

        Berkeley Breathed, you are sorely missed!

  4. brin says:

    Yikes…as if things aren’t bad enough for her, now she is being mistaken for the Cracken?! That’s bad.

  5. carrie says:

    if you don’t want to see paps,don’t go to Chateau Marmont

  6. blondie says:

    I could buy that alternate theory. Amanda Bynes is looking rough enough these days that someone could mistake her for Lindsay Lohan.

    On a completely unrelated note, her shoes must be very comfortable judging by the number of band-aids on her feet.

  7. jesstar says:

    Is this a legitimate career move now? Become a drunken cokehead mess so the you dont have to actually work, but people still know your name? Ugh! Thanks Cracken, for paving the way.

    • jess says:

      I was about to post the same thing. Its sad that the only way these washed up kid stars can get their name out there is to be a trainwreck. Whats sad is that Amanda and Lindsay are/were talented.

  8. hoya_chick says:

    Eww are those band-aids coming out of her shoes? I wish this style of shoe would go away, it’s very unflattering. LOL @ someone mistaking Amanda for Lindsay. If that’s what happened then there’s two things: 1st how embarrassing for Amanda that she is not even famous enough to get in a drunken scuffle and get credit for it! Haha and 2nd it’s even funnier that that’s what the cracken has been reduced to. Any crack event that happens in LA she is somehow linked to. hahahaha

  9. Talie says:

    Jesus, you have to wonder how much Amanda was getting away with before all this paparazzi attention.

  10. Reece says:

    I don’t get the appeal of Marmont. It used to be the hideout place back in the studio system days but now it’s a pap haven. People hanging out there are clearly trying to be seen.

  11. Neelyo says:

    Is texting while driving illegal in California? Texting while doing anything should be illegal. I live in NYC and navigating the sidewalk while people are texting is beyond annoying, but while driving?

    Texting while doing any activitiy that requires concentration and LOOKING WHERE YOU’RE GOING is so incredibly selfish. It says that you can’t be bothered to pay attention and others just need to get out of my way because i’m busy.

    Sorry for the rant but it makes me incredibly angry.

    • gee says:

      As a fellow NY-er, here here.

    • lucy2 says:

      It is illegal, and has been for about 3 years.
      It’s bad enough to do that to begin with, but when you’ve just attracted a lot of attention for a DUI, wouldn’t you STAY HOME??? Or at the very least be very cautious?

    • the original bellaluna says:

      Yes, texting while driving is illegal in Cali. So is talking on a mobile without a hands-free device.

      Don’t know if you ladies (and gents) have seen the article about the 18-year-old girl who was on her way home from school in Utah to visit her parents in Idaho; she was driving 85 MPH and Facebooking when she crashed into a tractor-trailer truck and died. Apparently, it’s not illegal to text while driving there, and the speed limit is 75 MPH on some of those country roads. BAD COMBINATION.

  12. Day says:

    Why does she always look so bloated?

    She used to be so cute. I loved her What About You show. Girl has fallen all the way off.

  13. B says:

    She looks like she’s drunk-flush (red face).

  14. Lucy says:

    I never heard of this chick until she got in trouble…hmm

  15. Lorri says:

    Did you see all the bandaids on her feet????

  16. franceska says:

    Why is she just wearing a brA? Or is her shirt coming off?

  17. Mich says:

    Forget being out and drinking/driving a week after her DUI, according to some reports she was out drinking just HOURS after her DUI.

    CDAN may or may not be correct, but it is really pushing that there is a LOT lurking behind this girl’s cupcake facade.

    Note to self: Short shorts, black lace bra and box o’ bandaids…not a good look.

  18. imabrat says:

    See? She’s decided to play the Lohan game. She can’t get attention on her merit so she gets attention the Lohan way.

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      She is really playing the Lohan game. Pics of her with Diana Jenkins in room 23 , along with other “starlets” that pimp out their wares. She worked extensively with Dan Schneider the pedo Nick producer that supposedly got little spears pregnant.
      Word is that Bynes, Lohan, Tara Reid all hook for money between few and far between acting gigs. Jenkins is the one with the ass bruises with Hayden p on that yacht in Cannes. Hayden rumored to have a pedo mom and dad and being a call girl, freak and liking to get hit by her older man friends.
      Bynes is in that catalog showing off what’s for sale and she looks every inch of it here.
      Great look and band aids. The thing that gets me is the texting! Why not use Siri and have her voice do it? Idiot.

      • Karolina says:

        where did u hear all this stuff? I am curious

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        It’s all over the web in many places. The photo and fact trail they leave is incredible and you can’t keep everyone quiet.
        You can google any of it. Google Dan S. name with Jamie Lynn spears . Look at the photo evidence of Hayden from a young age and who she dates, who her mom and dad are, check out pics of her on a pole at 16. Dating always much older violent men, the many, many blinds that absolutely fit.
        Google Diana Jenkins. See who her connections are, the pics of her, Hayden in Cannes, check out room 23. All these models and “starlets” posing like that.
        There is a thread that was referenced here a few days ago that led to a thread on lipstick alley that patches it all together with other articles and tons of pics.
        Cindy Crawford is referenced a lot, in connection with the dirty dance scene on the yacht next to Pam Anderson to the frankly weird treatment of her daughters. Topless pics, early modeling, bondage pics of her youngest held for ransom. For real, it really points to there being a high class call girl ring using starlets and models.
        Who is in the room 23 catalog? Which is supposed to be for Bosnian relief, but is a bunch of celebs with hardly any clothes on in a hotel suite. George clooney and kid rock, I suspect are clients.
        Girls? Ashanti, LL, Amanda Bynes, Cindy Crawford, Rachel hunter, marissa miller, etc.
        This is all woven together with pics of Ashanti with a foreign president, LILO meeting with Russian diplomats, etc. it’s kind of a mind blowing read, and the puzzle pieces fit.
        We’ve talked about Cindy’s kid modeling, rumors of call girl actresses and models. It’s well documented truth the history of hollywood and modelling. And politics… Naomi Campbell and her married russian, carla bruni, terry Richardson, there is a truckload of evidence out there, but room 23 in that lipstick alley thread sewed it all up. Crazy stuff, but the Nick and Disney kids, these models and starlets. There is something going on, that is for sure. How many have to talk about the incest, sex, rape, pedophilia and drugs and how many have to die? The list is endless. There many pedo cases in entertainment right now, it’s been in the news a lot. Corey Feldman, Mackenzie Phillips, that chick from little house. The allegations of molestation about the dude that managed nsync.

        I wouldn’t my kid in the field for all the money in the world.

      • kazoo says:

        dude. everything you said was interesting. please share more! LOL

      • Mich says:

        @TheOriginalTiffany

        I LOVE that you know all of this! For some reason I happened on this thread a few weeks ago and have been following it ever since. If even a slice of it is true it is mind-blowing.

        I don’t really buy the Room 23 rumours or the stuff about Crawford, but am completely sold on Nick being a cesspool. How is Dan S not under investigation? With so much smoke there must be fire.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        When you really start thinking about it, it makes your head swim. Why would all these billionaire men and superstars and politicos hang with mostly vapid models and starlets? For their rapier intellect and scintillating wit? Why did Naomi wind up with blood diamonds? Denise Richards?
        Let’s be real.

        All you have to do is google hollywood and pedophilia and maybe throw in a couple of names like Schneider and look what you get. Look at his wiki page only to see the shows with the actors crossed off at the bottom with who he has worked with and the trail it leads to.
        Roman Polanski anyone? Heidi Fleiss? She even said she was small potatoes. Hollywood continues to abuse children from Judy Garland on down to today. What a soul sucking industry.

        Ridiculous to assert I am making this up due to blinds. There is enough in the actual MSM to show it all. You realize Berlusconi runs Italy, runs fully 90% of the TV and media and is based on jiggle and sex? Great doc on Netflix, BTW.

      • mary simon says:

        @ TheOriginalTiffany

        I’ve heard some of this stuff before. Do you have any of the links?

      • normades says:

        That lipstick alley thread is one of the most disturbing things I have ever read. I can’t even repeat the stuff it’s so disturbing (though Tiff is doing a nice job).
        Like all blind items I would take it all with a grain of salt (but a very very small one).
        I believe Corey Feldman.

  19. Stephanie says:

    It looks like she is doing the ho stroll!!!

  20. Meanchick says:

    Courtney Love would be proud of those feet.

  21. joesway says:

    @the original tiffany: youre just a know it all aint ya? love how you eat up what these gossip sites like cdan say word for word. take it with a grain of salt hes in the website business, more clicks more money dummy.

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      No, I rarely read cdan, if ever. You cannot deny the weird trail of child stars who are really messed up and the actual criminal allegations and photo evidence of these things. They come up here all the time. Do you really believe there isn’t something going on with these criminal allegations and kids literally falling apart before our eyes.
      The world of kid stars and models is messed up because adults who prey on kids get into positions near kids. Like priests and coaches. Why do moms like Lohan, panitierre, that mom from that show where the daughter was breaking into homes do this? Why would a wash up like Stacy Dash from clueless be hanging with Clooney? The pics are right there. what about Uncle Terry? I guess I am a know it all and shut up.
      Tons of celeb crap is stupid, but clearly we gossip daily about a Lohan, a Bynes, a Lovato, Spears, Christina, etc…I have kids, it bugs me that people turn a blind eye for profit.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        Also, I only read this site and Dlisted now and again for giggles. Sometimes follow links.
        I can remember hearing about Paris and Nicky from back in the day when they were kids dancing on tables in W magazine. Hayden’s rumors followed her forever, along with her man choices.

        Everything is in the news, Berlusconi, Clooney, Canalis, etc. Do we really believe that this isn’t going on? It’s obvious when you start putting it all together.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        TOT, hubs and I were just talking the other day about how Disney and Nickelodeon studios should be shut down for all the damage they do to the kids who star in their shows. (Granted, it’s not just them; the parents have a lot to do with it as well.) (I also only read CB, D-Listed, and Jezebel.)

        They stuff these kids heads with dreams of fame and fortune, and when they can’t transition to “adulthood fame” they end up a mess.

        Britney: Disney
        Christina: Disney
        Amanda: Nickelodeon

        I’m sure there’s more, but I don’t feel like developing carpel tunnel listing them all.

    • normades says:

      This shiz is hardcore and I eat it up, but since I can’t verify any of it I choose not to repeat it.

      In regards to CDAN/himmm I wish he hadn’t shot his credibility to hell because I think he was on to something. But no one will believe him now because he tried to be RDJ.

      I believe Corey Feldman. I believe Alison Arngrim. It’s sad no one does anything about it. HWood is full of sickos.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        I usually don’t. Never have but am fed up with this stuff and there is ample evidence, not blinds, but photo, news and criminal accusations, like the molestation on the choreographer from SYTYCD.

        It’s sad and sick. Makes more sense that these girls are doing something for cash if not acting ala lohan. Long, long breaks between bit modeling or acting, but living high? Hmmmm.

      • Mich says:

        @TheOriginalTiffany

        I couldn’t agree with you more. If we learned anything from the Catholic church or Penn State or any number of other horrible stories, it is that the lid needs to be blown off these things and people need to be held accountable.

  22. CS says:

    Amanda… who? I guess she’s not pals with Paris, or she would have learned something from her deep song…

  23. sunmoonstars says:

    Amanda please! But seriously, this is sad. I have always really liked Amanda and think she’s talented. I watch “What I Like About You” every morning even though I’ve seen every episode at least 3 times now. With all these stars imploding like this, I have to agree with the whole Room 23 thing. Something seriously bad has to be happening to these people for them to be behaving like this. It’s literally every other person in Hollywood with a drug problem, is that a thing in other industries or is Hollywood unique? I wish I knew the answer to that….

    Amanda, get it together!

  24. A Fan says:

    Admittedly, I barely know who the girl is, have never seen anything she’s acted in, know next to nothing about her, and certainly don’t know her personally…but my first instinctive reaction is that she’s another spoiled, arrogant, cocky, self-entitled piece of shit. I don’t usually write things like this, but this girl and her smug defiance grate on my nerves. In my opinion, life needs to send her a really hard lesson to knock her down a peg or two.

  25. mimi says:

    Parental control anyone?

    These girls who once had work as children in Hollywood really have problems growing up.

    She has enough money to get a taxi.

    She should go to college, get educated and do something outside of LA/ Hollywood.

    That would give her a lot. She is caught up in this world and thinks this is “life”.

  26. Sugar says:

    Amanda I am so jelous! Where I live its still to cold outside to leave the house in just my bra…

  27. Joey says:

    She looks like a trick on the stroll.

  28. shannon says:

    This is really sad to me. Back in the day, when she was on Nickelodeon, my son had quite the crush on her, and she was so cute on ‘The Amanda Show.’ I hope she gets it together.

  29. lindsay says:

    @TheOriginalTiffany: the site those blind items came from was already proven to be fake. can u stop rumor mongering. if u want lame conspiracy theories, go to vigilant citizen and discuss ur lame stories w/ the illuminati freaks

    • Mich says:

      This is a GOSSIP site. What do you think we come here for? World events discussions?

      Second of all, the site you are talking about was not ‘proven to be a fake’. One commenter became a sensation based on who people thought he was. But it doesn’t matter, it isn’t the only, or even the first, site to talk about many of these things.

    • OriginalTiffany says:

      @Lindsay, again, I don’t even read the site in question. If you put the photo, criminal and media reporting together it proves the point.
      Also, my husband has worked with the majority of the musical field and I could probably tell you stories that would blow your mind.
      All you have to do is read the news and follow the sites for a bit, it is perfectly clear what is going on in the industry these days. Do you think it is normal to be on drugs, rehab, cults, dying early, mental illness, addictions, etc? Seems to be a high rate in this profession, no?
      No thanks about VC, I’m not into craziness.

    A text worth dying for.

    Wow,everybody is hating on poor girls feet covered in band-aids,actually i think it’s kinda sweet!
