Amanda Bynes

Amanda Bynes the beautiful gorgeous young actress of Hollywood has decided to quit from acting at the age of 24. She announced the news on Twitter. She tweeted around 3.am. last saturday morning that it wasn’t amusing anymore. "I don't love acting anymore so I've stopped doing it," "Being an actress isn't as fun as it may seem".

She's the Hairspray actress who started acting as professional at the age of 7 believe she doesn't find her career fun anymore and has decided to quit from acting.

Amanda Bynes was 10 years old when she started on Nickelodeon show "All That" then she eventually got her own series, "The Amanda Show."

Amanda Bynes also did a photoshoot for Maxim. She was also named one of Teen People's "25 Hottest Stars Under 25" in 2006. She's not only hot, she is rich too. In 2007 Forbes listed her as the fifth highest paid celebrity under 21, with earnings of $2.5 million.


I am sad because Amanda Bynes is a great actress and she is one of my favorite Hollywood actress.

Dora Grows Up

I just read that now Dora the Explorer is also growing older. The creators are making an older doll of Dora with miniskirt and long hair for the tweens. While the little Dora version will also be around for the kids.

But many parents are questioning this move. They feel why cant' a doll stay ageless. Thus petitions are being signed to pressurize the makers of Dora - Mattel and Nickelodeon.

This has become a trend with Barbie celebrating its birthdays every decade with some element of surprise.

It seems that the commercial aspect can't be lost in anyway - the modern age, fashion, style and trends are being highlighted in almost every way with all products. There is resistance to these changes when actually people themselves are the reason to these changes directly and indirectly.

Anyway, I will be looking forward to the older Dora as well though.
