Amanda Laura Bynes was born on April 3, 1986, in Thousand Oaks, California. The youngest of three children, she became interested in acting and performing from the age of three, when she would say her older sister Jillian's lines with her while she performed in plays. It was from then on that her family and friends knew that she would be a star someday. Her acting debut was in 1996, when she auditioned for and got the role as a newcomer on "All That" (1994). Right away, she became very popular as people enjoyed her acting in skits, especially Ask Ashley, where she played a little girl running an advice column who would get very angry every time she read a letter. In 1999, 13-year-old Amanda was given her own variety show, "The Amanda Show" (1999), in which she starred in all of the skits except Totally Kyle. In 2001, she co-starred with Frankie Muniz in Big Fat Liar (2002) as Kaylee, Jason's friend who helps him prove that he really did write the essay "Big Fat Liar" and regain his father's trust. It was also in 2001 that she began dating Taran Killam from "The Amanda Show" (1999) and Big Fat Liar (2002), who is four years and two days older than she is. She also won a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award and, at age 15, "The Amanda Show" (1999) ended its run. In 2002, she began co-starring with Jennie Garth in "What I Like About You" (2002) as Holly, a 16-year-old girl who moves in with her sister after their father decides to move to Japan. She also celebrated her Sweet 16th birthday and got her driver's license on April 3, 2002. In 2003, Amanda won two KCA Awards and starred as Daphne, a girl searching for her father, in What a Girl Wants (2003) with Colin Firth and Kelly Preston as her parents. She continued acting in "What I Like About You" (2002) and broke up with Taran. On April 3, 2004, Amanda celebrated her 18th birthday on the 17th Annual KCA Awards, where we she won an award for best actress for her role in What a Girl Wants (2003). She graduated from Thousand Oaks High School's independent study program on June 10, 2004, and filmed Lovewrecked (2005) in 2004. A prodigiously talented comedienne, she promises to have a lifelong career.

• August 17, 2009: Bynes in Pink: There hasn't been as much of an uproar around Amanda Bynes lately, as there seemed to sprout up a few months back when she was busy out on the party scene. While the actress claims to like being out with her fellow peers, she's not a drinker....

• May 18, 2009: More Bynes 4 Ur Face: As it was debated the other day, Amanda Bynes is one of those women that you either wanna nom nom nom or gag gag gag over. I happen to like her. For those who think that her acting is annoying, you can be glad that her bookings have been few and...
• May 15, 2009: Maxim's 100 Hotties: So, Maxim magazine put out its top 100 Hotties list recently, naming Olivia Wilde at the top of that list. She didn't appear to be on-hand for the party that they threw, but there were a slew of other good looking women there in support of the...
• May 13, 2009: Bynes, White & Leggy: I wonder if Amanda Bynes' permanent job at this point in her career is to show up to every event that anyone will host, promising to wear a short dress and show off those legs of hers. She's only got one movie ready for (supposedly) later this...
• May 1, 2009: Star Trek Premiere: Out of all of these pictures of all of these hotties for the Los Angeles premiere of STAR TREK last night, Heidi Klum was the only one to get into the spirit of things by sporting her Spock fingers. Guys, you hear about giving girls "The Shocker"...
• April 17, 2009: 17 Again Hotties: Here are some of the parade of women that turned out for the premiere of the Zac Efron headed comedy, 17 AGAIN. I remember when JoBlo first reported that this movie was going to be made and everyone assumed it would be a lot like BIG. And while...
• February 19, 2009: Battle of the Babes #40: Sometimes I get these great bursts of inspiration and come up with great Babe Battles. Other times, I'm struggling to figure out which chicks to pit against one another. For instance, this week I felt like I came up with a good...
• February 18, 2009: Amanda's Fashionable: Oh, how easy it is to get caught up in the Amanda Bynes wave of good looking shots. However, and maybe this is just me, I don't think she looks as good in these ones as she has in some of the others recently. I'm sharing them with you so that you...
• February 16, 2009: Bynes Walks Out: I can't think of anything better to caption this post that would fit in the amount of letters that I am allotted. I can't really think of anything coherent when I look at the lovely visage of Amanda Bynes. She's pretty, she's always out in the...
• February 2, 2009: Out of Bynes Blurbs: I'm seriously running low on ideas for what to title my posts on Amanda Bynes. She keeps wandering around town, going to restaurants and clubs, red carpets and various parties, flashing her big smile and flaunting her nicely sculpted legs. Sad...
• January 30, 2009: Singly Bynes: Amanda Bynes is single. She broke up with whatever inconsequential douchebag she was dating and has now dedicated herself to going out to fancy restaurants with her girlfriends, wearing skirts that maximize the perfection that are her legs. She's...
• January 19, 2009: Monday Morning Bynes: For those of you who don't dig on Amanda Bynes, you're probably sick of me posting shots of her on the red carpet by now. Well... these aren't red carpet charity events or after party shots: They're candids! Shall I wag my tongue, or would that...
• January 16, 2009: Friday Morning Bynes: Since there are more people than just me on an Amanda Bynes high lately, I figured we could cap the week with some shots of the actress at the Education Advantage Foundation Celebrity Basketball Game in L.A. (Try saying that out loud even...

• January 12, 2009: Bynes By Demand: Since the majority of you who commented on the images of the women at the Critics' Choice Award seemed to be in agreement that Amanda Bynes was holding her own amongst the A-listers, I figured I would bring you more shots of her luscious...
• January 9, 2009: Critics Choice Hotties: The hotties were out in full force last night for the 14th Annual Critics' Choice Awards. Between this and the People's Choice Awards, I think it's safe for us to say that we are officially in awards season. The Golden Globes are coming up and...
• November 19, 2008: Bynes in Miami: Alright, so there isn't much difference between Amanda Bynes and Tara Reid these days. Neither one of them are working on movie projects, so they can't be all that bankable by Hollywood standards, right? I hate to compare that generically, but I...
• September 26, 2008: Bynes is Bodacious: Amanda Bynes needs work. Something other than taunting me from the red carpet premieres of shitty Lifetime Channel Movies. The woman looks hot. Now will someone please cast her in a Leelee type role where she's got to be poured into...
• July 31, 2008: Amanda Works It: I personally really dig Amanda Bynes. She's funny, she's not just another air-headed dipshit in their early twenties getting snapped falling out of clubs drunk (or at an accident scene later) and lately she's gotten her body into...
• May 23, 2008: Ahhh-manda: I know I'm not the only one who thinks the little girl from "The Amanda Show" grew up into a total fox. Now if she could only land some more acting jobs and not have to spend her time bumping around from premiere...
• April 20, 2008: No Booze for Bynes: Well, at least we won't have to worry about her pulling a Lindsay or a Paris or a Nicole or a Mischa... How sad it is that the list goes on. But Amanda Bynes, the now 22 year old and legal to drink hottie has admitted that she's a complete...
• June 4, 2006: MTV Movie Awards - Backstage: While these backstage and press room pictures are technically the last we have of the MTV Movie Awards, we'll be adding more as we we get our hands on more. By the way, is it just us or does Hayden Christensen looked stoned out of his mind? Or...
• June 4, 2006: MTV Movie Awards - Show: Judging from these pictures, nothing terribly exciting happened this year except for maybe Christina Aguilera's outfit and Jessica Alba's existence. We're even surprised there weren't any odd match-ups a la Busta Rhymes and Martha Stewart. We...
• March 8, 2006: PromoPics: Amanda Bynes: Recently, reader Mike, who we like to call Mr. Cool, sent us these promo pics for the upcoming teen rom com SHE'S THE MAN. We initially thought they were as generic as many we've seen before but on closer inspection, we noticed Amanda Bynes is...
