Bye bye blonde...

and hello brunette! Amanda spent 3 hours at the Jessica Galvan Hair Studio in LA yesterday and was swarmed by photographers by time she got done. She left with her dog showing off her new brown 'do and reportedly said, "Am I worth it guys? I'm no Posh!" Some of the papparazi said she was prettier than the Spice Girl, and I have to agree!

Thanks pranksalot for finding these.

The Post Grad Survival Guide

Rumor has it that Amanda was attached to star in a movie called The Post Grad Survival Guide, which IMDB describes as a comedy in which a recent college grad moves back in with her family while she figures out what she wants to do next.

Although Amanda's involvement is unconfirmed, Bynes may have pulled out due to conflicts with objectionable material in the script or due to delays caused by the writers' strike. The film is now in post production and stars Alexis Bledel, Carol Burnett, and Micheal Keaton.

Out and about this weekend

Amanda went to the Macha Theater in West Hollywood to see a play called Glengarry Glen Ross with her boyfriend and the director of the play over the weekend. Could Amanda be headed to the stage next?

Bynes is a lightweight drinker?

From Contact Music:

Former child star Amanda Bynes is a terrible drunk - she can't swallow a drop of alcohol without vomiting.

The 22-year-old actress may be old enough to legally drink in her native U.S. but admits she gets sick too quickly - so prefers to stay sober.

Bynes says, "I'm not a big drinker. I puke every single time I get drunk."

"On my birthday, I'll go out, but I'll probably not go out again until my next birthday, which is kind of depressing. I'm tired at night, and I don't have that energy."

Brittany Snow talks about Amanda

Hairspray costar Brittany Snow tells May's CosmoGirl more about her struggle with her nine year eating disorder and had this to say about Amanda:

The weekly entertainment magazine notes that Snow says she decided to make her struggle with anorexia public after two of her friends died from an eating disorder. "I was devastated," she says. "I have so many girlfriends who are not even in Hollywood who struggle with eating disorders — Sophia and Amanda [Bynes] are the only two people I know who are happy with their bodies."

Bynes headed back to tv...

...sort of! Amanda will provide a guest voice on the season finale of Family Guy, airing Sunday, May 4.

Here is more information from Comics Continuum:

Fox describes the episode:
Yo ho ho! It¹s a pirate's life for Peter when he gets a pet parrot. But after raising hell in Quahog and terrorizing the neighbors, Peter accidentally kills his beloved pet. Meanwhile, Chris goes with Brian to the vet and falls for the lovely intern Anna (Bynes).

Amanda has previously done voice work in Rugrats, The Day I Saved America, Charlotte's Web 2: Wilbur's Great Adventure, and Robots.

Too bad it's not a movie role that has been announced, but at least it's something new.
