Amanda Bynes to Tabloids: I Lost 18 Pounds! Take Some New Pics Of Me!
by Tyler Johnson at . Updated at .Over the weekend, recordings of Amanda Bynes threatening to kill her father went public.
Bynes claims she was only "joking" about murdering her family, and she wishes we'd all get over it and focus on more important things - like how good she looks these days!
Yes, Amanda's mental health issues have made her a tabloid staple lately and though she's apparently fine with the constant coverage, she wishes the press would use some more flattering pics.
"I hate that TMZ uses the ugliest photos of me," Amanda tweeted last night. "I don't look like that anymore."
"I've had acne laser treatments and I've lost 18 lbs so I don't appreciate them using old photos of me."
A fair request. Although, as you can tell from the photo above, Amanda tends to obscure her face as much as possible whenever she encounters paparazzi, so it's not hard to see why some media outlets might prefer to use older photos.
While the weight loss and acne treatments may not be immediately apparent, the fact that Amanda dyed her hair purple has received plenty of attention from fans and the press.
It may seem like a harmless fashion statement, but in the past, Bynes has taken altering her appearance around the same time that her behavior reached its most troubling point.
Hopefully, that's not the case this time, but if her latest tweets and recorded ramblings are any indication, things may get worse for Amanda before they get better.
