Compared to her bizarre antics, most of Amanda Bynes’ answers to the Us Weekly celebrity survey “25 Things You Don’t Know About Me” were relatively mundane. Below are some semi-interesting factoids that the actress confessed, but pay special notice to No. 15:
1. My first concert was the Spice Girls. I always wanted to be Posh.
3. I went on Accutane and it really helped my skin clear up.
8. I know how to play the piano and the violin.
11. I gain weight quickly so I need to work out constantly.
15. I moved to New York City and I love it! I lost 4 lbs. since I moved. I’m 121 lbs — my goal is 100 lbs.
16. I survived Hurricane Sandy.
17. I bought a Rolex. It’s my most prized possession.
So Bynes lost some weight and would like to lose a lot more. Us Weekly commenters seemed concerned about Bynes’ desire to slim down. A reader noted in the comment section that since the “Easy A” star measures at 5’8,” if she lost 21 more pounds, it would put her at an unhealthy extreme.
“That’d make her BMI 15.2. Anything under 18.5 is underweight. That’s VERY underweight,” another commenter wrote.
As HuffPo reported, a woman at Bynes’ height should hit a target weight of about 146 pounds. A low weight for them would be 126, which Bynes is already below.
Bynes also recently posted an Instagram photo about her diet. “Losing weight is hard to do! I love jeans with sexy holes, mine are from Current Elliot :D”
Page Six revealed this week that the eccentric star mystified her former neighbors at her recently vacated downtown building.
“Her door was left open all the time,” said one who added, “And we saw that she put red [lightbulbs] in every outlet.”
The former Nickelodeon star was seen coming down to the lobby “at 2 a.m. one morning, laughing hysterically for four minutes” and then “went back to her apartment.” The source added, “She was really nice at first. She knocked on some doors and introduced herself and wanted to hang out, but then she started acting weird.”
