90s kids brace for a shock. Beloved star of Nickelodeon's kids comedy sketch show The Amanda Show, Amanda Bynes, is turning 40 years old today.
Bynes had her big break on the Nickelodeon show All That in 1996, and just three years later, the child actress was already leading her own comedy show. Although The Amanda Show only ran for three years, Bynes' career exploded after that show concluded, with a major shift to the big screen.
Bynes' first major big screen role was What A Girl Wants in 2003, which saw Bynes in the Princess Diaries-style role of Daphne Reynolds, an American teenager who learns that her biological father is a wealthy British politician (played by Colin Firth).
Just a few years later, in 2006, Bynes starred in She's the Man, a modern take on William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. In the movie, Bynes plays Viola, a teenage girl who pretends to be her brother, Sebastian, so that she can play soccer at his boarding school. Bynes starred opposite Channing Tatum in that film, which is largely seen as a cult classic today.
However, arguably Bynes' most successful film was her very last before her ongoing hiatus from acting. In 2010, Bynes starred as mean girl Marianne, the antagonist to Emma Stone'scharacter, Olive, in Easy A. That movie, based on Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel The Scarlet Letter, was a massive box office success, grossing approximately $75 million worldwide after reportedly only costing $8 million to produce.
Following that movie, Bynes took a step back from the spotlight, and she hasn't had an acting role since. In recent years, Bynes has become more present on social media, though. She maintains an active Instagram account, and she seems to be even more active on TikTok.
After she had her big start on All That when she was just 10 years old, it's difficult to believe that she's now celebrating her 40th birthday, but it's true; the Amanda Show and What A Girl Wants star is officially 40 years old.
