Keeping Out Of The Spotlight – These Hollywood Stars Walked Away

28. Amanda Bynes

Back in her heyday, Amanda Bynes was set to be the new Meg Ryan. She was an American actress and child star who was funny, smart, talented and beautiful, and starred in a bunch of Nickelodeon hits. Many kids looked up to her, as she was clean cut and led a wholesome life. She was slowly transitioning into more adult roles, but then she completely disappeared.

When she came back on the scene a few years later, it was through many Tweets on Twitter that didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Amanda went through a lot, mentally, and decided to give up acting unfortunately. She has now poured her energy into the fashion industry studying fashion at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandise.
