Things are not getting better for our friend Amanda Bynes. TMZ reports that the actress starlet has been dropped by not only her agent but also her publicist and lawyer. Sources say she has become uncontrollable over the past 12 months. But Bynes feels she no longer needs their services anyways, because as you know, she's no longer an actress and is now a fashion designer.

For the first time since making headlines all summer for her reckless driving and bizarre behavior, Amanda Bynes is speaking to the media. In an interview with People, Bynes says she's "doing amazing." The actress goes on to say: "I am retired as an actor. I am moving to New York to launch my career. I am going to do a fashion line," added Bynes, who was polite, respectful and upbeat on the phone. "I am not talking about being arrested for DUI because I don't drink, and I don't drink and drive. It is all false." But her words seem to convince few. Just the day before Bynes again acted bizarre at a gym where she wore a a strapless push-up bra instead of a sports bra and was seen putting on makeup in the middle of a spinning class. According to TMZ, Bynes' parents have relocated from Texas to LA to be closer to the troubled starlet. But the good news in all of this? At least she's retiring from acting.

Though she's no longer driving, Amanda Bynes is still making headlines for her weird behavior. TMZ reports Bynes, whose license was suspended last week, locked herself in a West Hollywood boutique dressing room for nearly two hours. Store employees were reportedly concerned about her and thought she was doing drugs in the dressing room. "I was so worried about her. I didn't know what she was doing in [the dressing room]," said one employee. "I didn't know if she was overdosing, or doing drugs or what." While some say that with the alleged drug use and weird antics (including talking to inanimate objects), Bynes is losing it, the actress said she's not having a meltdown and she doesn't need a Britney Spears-type conservatorship. But maybe Bynes is learning. Monday night she was seen at a Starbucks instead of a nightclub and instead of driving home, she used a chauffeur. Good for her.

There's yet another nude British royals "scandal," and this time it's focused on the Duchess of Cambridge. Reuters reports that a French magazine, Closer, posted pics of Kate sunbathing on a beach in southern France topless while on vacation with William. While the photos are causing some titillation and discussion of the royals' right to privacy, it hardly seems scandal-worthy seeing as being topless while sunbathing in the south of France is about as inappropriate as being nude in a spa or a shower... or at a party in a Las Vegas suite.

At least we know what she was thinking. Amanda Bynes' lawyer went in front of a judge this week and argued that the actress could still drive since she had not yet been to a DMV hearing. The judge assured the lawyer that the license had been suspended, and added that perhaps Bynes should show up at the next hearing.

Not to be outdone hot-mess-wise, Lindsay Lohan has been acting erratic. She is rumored to have not reported to work for shooting on Scary Movie 5, but perhaps that was because she was too busy tweeting deep thoughts such as: "Birkin. Mac Computer. Chanel and a jet. Never quit fighting to live your dreams. God Bless." Yeah, we don't know what that's supposed to mean either.

She might be too old for action movies, but Gwyneth Paltrow has signed a deal with cosmetic company Max Factor.

Thirty-seven-year-old Eva Longoria admitted to Extra that she is dating football player Mark Sanchez, who is 25. Does anybody else think she might want to try dating men her own age again? After all, guys in their twenties tend to have the bad habit of acting like guys in their twenties.

Ok, this is now getting sad. TMZ has photos of Amanda Bynes allegedly smoking from a "drug pipe." The photos were snagged Tuesday when photogs were trailing the actress, who is reportedly driving on a suspended license. Bynes allegedly took several hits from the pipe in the parking lot of a taco restaurant and again in the parking lot of a Home Depot. While inside the store, paparazzi took shots of the interior of Bynes' BMW, and the pictures show what appear to be marijuana remnants in a cup holder. The rest of car looked trashed with stains on the seats, empty bottles, and dog hair. Up until now it's been fun mocking Bynes' and her recent run-ins with the law (literally, she hit a cop car) but it's now getting to the point where we should we worried about the star. Let's hope she gets some help.

Is Kristen Stewart moving on from Robert Pattinson? RadarOnline reports that James Franco was "enamored" with the Twilight actress when they ran into each other during the Toronto Film Festival last week. "There was a lot of flirting and Kristen was overjoyed by the attention she was getting from James," according to a source. After conversing with Stewart for 22 minutes, he was turned down when he reportedly tried to set up a dinner date. Maybe it's too soon? Wait until the publicity tour for Breaking Dawn: Part 2 is over Franco.

Well, the streets are a bit safer now. Amanda Bynes's driver's license has been suspended following two misdemeanor hit-and-run charges. The charges stem from two separate incidents — one on April 10 and the other on Aug. 4. That's not counting Bynes' OTHER car accident. In April she was arrested and charged with driving under the influence after she hit a cop car. Bynes faces up to a year behind bars if convicted. Now if we could only get Lindsay Lohan from behind the wheel.

Rosie O'Donnell is recovering at home after suffering a heart attack last week. The comedian took an aspirin after realizing that she had several heart attack symptoms, including clammy skin, nausea, and an aching chest. Doctors inserted a stint after finding that O'Donnell's coronary artery was 99 percent blocked. On her blog O'Donnell urged women who believe they are having a heart attack to call 911.

We don't know who, but somebody apparently told Amanda Bynes that driving around southern California is pretty much the same thing as riding in the bumper cars at an amusement park. The retired 26-year-old actress got in yet another car accident on Monday night. She was rear-ended while driving a rental, but the other driver is claiming a reckless maneuver on Bynes' part caused the collision. Why was she in a rental? Oh yeah, because her car is in the body shop. Between getting in car accidents every five minutes and getting photographed running around town looking like a hot mess, perhaps Bynes should look into relocating to a smaller, mellower, pedestrian-friendly town.

Natalie Portman is officially off the market. The actress tied the knot with Benjamin Millepied at ceremony in Big Sur in California. The two met on the set of Black Swan. Millepied was a choreographer on the movie. In December 2010, the two announced they were engaged and expecting their first child. Their son Aleph is 14 months old. The couple were surrounded by family and friends, including Ivanka Trump and Macaulay Culkin, as they exchanged their vows in a Jewish ceremony at a private home.

Amanda Bynes is accused of being in yet another car accident. A woman filed a police report with the L.A. police claiming Bynes rear-ended her and then left without exchanging insurance information. Bynes reportedly crashed her black BMW into the back of the woman's Toyota Corolla. The woman said she didn't recognize Bynes at first and described her as a "hot mess." Bynes then told the woman the damage to her Corolla didn't look bad and got in her car and left. This is the fourth time Bynes has been accused of being in a car accident. She plead not guilty to a DUI incident in April, where she allegedly sideswiped a cop while intoxicated. She's also accused of being involved in two hit-and-run accidents in May. Please, someone get this girl a bus pass.
