Ever wonder where Nickelodeon star-turned-movie star Amanda Bynes has been? Yeah okay, me neither, which could be part of the reason as to why the 24-year-old has called it quits when it comes to acting.

The Sydney White star took to her Twitter page in wee hours of Saturday morning to let her fans face the bad news first:

“I don’t love acting anymore so I’ve stopped doing it… Being an actress isn’t as fun as it may seem. I’ve never written the movies & tv shows I’ve been apart of, I’ve only acted like the characters the producers or directors wanted me to play… I know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first I’ve retired.”

While I’m by no means begging Bynes to return to movies, no one was stopping her from writing films and television shows… Sounds like someone has a case of ingratitude!

Or maybe it’s smart marketing: with her last film, Easy A, due out this fall, perhaps this is merely a ploy to lure her fans into the theater. Will you miss seeing Amanda on the big and small screens?
