Where is Amanda Bynes in 2023? The former child star for Nickelodeon just launched a podcast and admitted to having eyelid surgery, and ended her Britney Spears-style conservatorship last year
- Amanda Bynes, the former child star who rose to fame with films Hairspray, What a Girl Wants, She’s the Man and Sydney White, is in the headlines again for discussing blepharoplasty
- Like Britney Spears, Demi Lovato and Lindsay Lohan, Bynes has faced her fair share of mental health struggles as a result of finding fame too young – so where is she today?
Amanda Bynes is opening up about her experience with blepharoplasty, a procedure that removes excess eyelid skin.
“I was never open about this before, but I actually had blepharoplasty surgery on the skinfolds and the corner of my eyes. So, I don’t have those skinfolds any more,” she shared in a video on her Instagram Story last week.
The former child star called it “one of the best things I could’ve ever done for my self-confidence”, saying it was part of her “new look”.
Bynes, 37, rose to fame in the early 2000s, starring in classic chick flicks What a Girl Wants, She’s the Man, Hairspray and Sydney White.
The last film she appeared in was Easy A alongside Emma Stone and Penn Badgley in 2010, but she stepped away from acting and has now been out of the industry for over a decade. In an interview she did with interview with Paper Magazine in 2018, she said she “literally couldn’t stand my appearance in that movie [Easy A], and I didn’t like my performance”.
