Amanda Bynes' Parents Met With Lawyers To Try To Get A Conservatorship

This whole saga is sounding very Britney Spears-esque!

Even before Amanda Bynes' latest arrest in N.Y.C. last night, her parents Rick and Lynn were concerned enough about their daughter's erratic behavior to consult with lawyers about obtaining a conservatorship, Radar reports.

"Rick & Lynn have met with several lawyers that handle conservatorships in the past month, because they want to get a conservatorship over their daughter. They have been advised that even as disturbing as Amanda's behavior is, it's very unlikely that a judge would sign off on a temporary conservatorship," a source dishes.

The troubled actress is so unpredictable that she even reportedly called 911 on herself the night of her marijuana bust!

"She called 911, saying the cops were going to assault her," In Touch sources claim.

Her parents want to get her the help she desperately needs, but it looks like they might not have the best of luck!

"Conservatorships are very hard to get, and being mentally ill and addicted to drugs isn't enough. Amanda hasn't ever been to rehab or ever agreed to see a mental health professional. Her parents are absolutely powerless to do anything at this point," a source adds.

We feel for them!

 

Amanda Bynes Charged With Marijuana Possession, Reckless Endangerment And Tampering With Evidence

Amanda Bynes appeared in a New York City courthouse this morning following her arrest last night, and she was formally charged with marijuana possession, reckless endangerment and attempted evidence tampering.

Though prosecutors requested that the 27-year-old actress be held in lieu of $1,000 bail, Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Neil Ross decided to release her without bail. Despite appearing lenient with the starlet, Ross warned Bynes that if she missed her July 9 court date, an arrest warrant would be issued and he would set “very significant bail.”

According to the NY Daily News, Bynes engaged in an animated conversation with her attorney in the court’s soundproof box, and when she wasn’t talking, "she was making crazy faces, mumbling to herself and staring blankly through the glass."

A man in Amanda's building filed a criminal complaint after witnessing her smoking a joint in the first floor lobby, and when officers went to Amanda's room, they noticed a bong on the kitchen counter. According to the report, the cop asked Amanda about the bong, at which point she "grab[bed] said bong, [ran] to the westbound-facing window, and [threw] it out the window where numerous pedestrians were walking on the 8 Avenue and West 47 Street sidewalks below." According to TMZ, Bynes told the judge she didn't throw a bong out of her window -- rather, it was "just a vase."

Last night Bynes was held temporarily for psychiatric testing at the Roosevelt Hospital, she was booked at the police station, where she took two mugshots -- one with her platinum blonde wig, one without.

Bynes left court just after 11am, and she hopped in a taxi and took off. Hopefully she can see where she's going!

bynes-mugshot-230.jpgAmanda Bynes' booking photo has hit the web, but minutes after this mugshot was taken at the Midtown Precinct North station in New York City, police asked Bynes to remove her platinum blonde wig and pose for a second one, which revealed her shaved head.

Bynes was arrested last night for marijuana possession after throwing a bong out of her West 47th Street apartment window on the 36th floor, and she was held temporarily for psychiatric testing at Roosevelt Hospital.

Bynes was then booked at the police station for criminal possession of marijuana, reckless endangerment and felony tampering with evidence. And let's not forget that earlier this month Bynes was put on three years' probation for driving with a suspended license.

The troubled actress was then taken to night court just before midnight where she waited for a judge, and she was snapped leaving just after 11am ... stay tuned for more photos and updates!

Brandi Glanville and her adorable sons Jake and Mason went shopping in Calabasas on Thursday, and even though the Real Housewives hottie is embroiled in bitter Twitter battle with LeAnn Rimes and apparently now Courtney Love, she was all smiles. (Of course, this comes the day after Courtney's daughter Frances slammed Kendall Jenner for a whiny tweet...)

Rimes and Glanville have been at each other's throats lately, but Love has made it clear that she's Team LeAnn! Glanville tweeted about not being able to get in touch with her children, writing:

    "I tweeted the father of my boys Mon night after trying to reach them for an hour.I dont know Y ANY1 else tweeted me back with involvment ... The kids called me 1 minute after that tweet #therealtruth Im so sick of BS lies I tweeted EC not his wife she should mind her business ... I am NOT in a twitter war with ANYONE! Ive been doing my best to not engage, I have no war with anyone I just miss my babys ... FYI I am only allowed to call my kids between 7 pm & 730 each evening, so when I cant reach them I freak, I always answer anytime dad calls."


Matchbox 20 singer Rob Thomas then wrote, "everyone who gives @leannrimes a hard time, be embarrassed that u read enough celebrity gossip to give someone you don't know a hard time." Shortly after that Love wrote, “I eat that sh*t for breakfast. Leanns my girl, u f*ck with her you f*ck with me!" Who knew the Hole frontwoman and the country cutie were pals?

Rimes replied, “@Courtney @ThisIsRobThomas love you both."
