Video: Amanda Bynes Posts Clip Of Herself Getting Ready
Amanda Bynes' slow descent into madness has been very well-documented. The troubled actress posts regular updates on Twitter revealing her tough-to-follow thought processes, as well as her strange new looks.
But now, Bynes has upped the ante. No longer content, it seems, with simple photos and words, last night she posted a video of herself allegedly getting ready to go out.
Titled "I'm Sucking On A Sour Patch Kid Listening To Music Getting Ready For Tonight :D �?�," the video shows Bynes making duck face into a mirror with Groucho Marx eyebrows, frosted lipstick and mounds of blond, teased hair. For about a minute, she twitches and turns this way and that while gazing into the looking glass.
Deep, deep into the looking glass.
It's not immediately clear what Bynes is trying to tell the world, and also, it looks like she's already ready to go out, so the title is kind of a misnomer.
But that's neither here nor there. Here's the video in its entirety:
