Amanda Bynes has quit acting at the ripe young age of 24.  The former actress announced the news on Twitter, tweeting in quick succession:

Being an actress isn’t as fun as it may seem.

If I don’t love something anymore, I stop doing it.

I don’t love acting anymore, so I’ve stopped doing it.

I know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first I’ve #retired.

Kinda weird because just last week she tweeted that her idols are “Marilyn Monroe (RIP) and Angelina Jolie.” Bynes hasn’t been in a movie since Hairspray in 2007.  She added, “I’ve never written the movies & tv shows I’ve been a part of. I’ve only acted like the characters the producers or directors wanted me to play.”

So is that a hint that she’s going to start… scriptwriting? Directing? Something besides tweeting? [Photo: Getty Images]
