Amanda Bynes is Crazy... OR IS SHE??

Back in April, Amanda Bynes was reported as being arrested for a DUI. Not at all uncommon these days, but still always unfortunate to see a beloved child actor get busted for shit like that... though it reminds us they're human. Also around this time, Bynes was allegedly the driver in a few hit and run cases.

Amanda's DUI mugshot:

Now, the world had forgotten about this. Old news. DUIs become old news real fast these days, as they're so plentiful. Common knowledge, right?

Well, about a month and a half later, Miz Bynes takes to her Twitter to say that the DUI is basically bullshit and everyone is making up stories. Um... what? Then where did that beautiful mugshot come from, dear? Alright, whatever. Maybe she's just fucking around.
Until yesterday...

When Bynes took to her Twitter to ask Obama (who I'm sure would love to take time out of his busy schedule to make sure the cop who arrested a Hollywood C-list celebrity drops her DUI and loses his job) to assess the situation. The degree of her seriousness of involving the President is TBD, but if the DUI is false and you don't drink, WHY are you being arrested?

And then I thought.. I spent a lot of years trying to keep up with Lindsay Lohan's drama before it got ridiculous.. and I do have a theory. Hollywood, especially the young woman partying side of Hollywood, seem to be like some kind of optical illusion. The audience, the reader, the voyeur is typically only given a quarter of the story. Who's to say this girl WASN'T drinking? Cop sets up a paparazzo, makes some side cash on a starlet's DUI. Who's to say the woman working in the jewelry store didn't say "Try this on, Miss Lohan, now let me distract you with a bunch of other stuff on purpose so you forget you're wearing it and I can call you a thief and take all your money in court"? I mean, seriously. It's really hard to say what's true. So as crazy as I thought Amanda Bynes sounded at first, maybe she really didn't do it.

Hollywood is a scary fucking place.
Unless you're just visiting. Then it's lovely.
