Amanda Bynes has been arrested for a DUI and was charged with a misdemeanor after cops "determined she was under the influence of a controlled substance" while she was driving.
On the heels of Amanda Bynes' lawyer's statement clearing up rumors about the starlet's mental health, Bynes' mother Lynne is now speaking out about her daughter's condition, saying she has "no mental illness whatsoever" and that marijuana was the cause of her erratic behavior.
What a difference a year makes. Amanda Bynes quietly returned to Twitter after a well-documented public meltdown that was covered by the media all through 2013. The former actress, who is now studying at FIDM, shared a self-portrait on Twitter.
Amanda Bynes has completed her stint in rehab. Her treatment will continue as an outpatient even though she has been discharged from a facility in Malibu, Calif.

Amanda Bynes is finally getting the help she needs, and a judge wants to make sure she keeps getting it -- so the troubled actress could spend the next year locked up in a mental health facility.
Knowing that, it probably won't surprise you that a tweet that went out Saturday from her long-dormant Twitter account wasn't posted by Amanda herself.
Amanda Bynes' 72-hour 5150 psychiatric hold just got extended by another two weeks, allowing her parents (and probably her poor pooch) to breathe a sigh of relief.
One person who may not be stoked? Osama 'Sam' Lutfi, the same creep who preyed on Britney Spears during her breakdown.
