Former Nickelodeon star Amanda Bynes joins OnlyFans
Amanda Bynes is stepping into the world of OnlyFans.
The former Nickelodeon star, now 39, took to social media and announced that she had officially launched an account on the popular subscription platform — but with clear boundaries in place.
"I'm on OnlyFans now! Disclaimer: I'm doing OnlyFans to chat with my fans through dm's [direct messages]. I won't be posting any sleazy content. Excited to join," Bynes wrote in a post made to her Instagram story.
OnlyFans is a subscription-based platform that allows creators to share and monetize their content, which can be explicit.
The child star shared a mirror selfie on her page, as she opted for long pointed nails, blonde wavy curls and a septum nose ring.
The current price to subscribe to Bynes' page is $50 a month.
"I'm on OnlyFans now! Disclaimer: I'm doing OnlyFans to chat with my fans through dm's. I won't be posting any sleazy content."
"The Amanda Show" star's OnlyFans launch may give fans a glimpse into her daily life, as Bynes has maintained a relatively low profile in recent years.
She had a widely publicized incident in March 2023, where the actress was placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold after she was found walking the streets of Los Angeles naked.
At the time, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital that their team responded to a call on March 19 at 6:45 a.m. to a 36-year-old female standing "completely nude" on the corner of Vermont Avenue and 4th Street.
The LAPD noted that Bynes appeared to be "suffering from mental illness," and based on statements she made, she was put on a psychiatric hold.
Officers also confirmed that Bynes was taken to the hospital.
The child star was additionally absent at the 90s Con event in Hartford, Connecticut, that year despite being scheduled to appear, but her former "All That" co-star Kel Mitchell shared an emotional message as Bynes missed the cast reunion.
"I've just been praying for her," Mitchell said during an interview with Entertainment Tonight. "It's awesome to see she's doing better. Which is great. We're just continuing to pray for her on her journey, and it's answered prayers that she's doing a lot better."
Bynes canceled her 90s Con appearance due to an "unknown illness," according to the media outlet.
Bynes' attendance at the media convention would've been her first public appearance after her eight-year conservatorship ended in March 2022.
At 10, Bynes landed a role on Nickelodeon's sketch series "All That" in 1996 and was a breakout star. In 1999, she got her own spin-off sketch show, "The Amanda Show," which ran for three seasons until 2002.
She made her feature film debut in 2002 in "Big Fat Liar," alongside fellow child star Frankie Muniz. That same year, she landed a starring role alongside Jennie Garth on the WB sitcom "What I Like About You."
In 2010, the "Easy A" actress announced she planned to go on an indefinite hiatus from acting.
Three years after that announcement, the California-born star was placed under a conservatorship.

Jared Leto denies sexual misconduct after facing accusations from multiple women
Jared Leto has been accused of sexual misconduct by nine women in a lengthy exposé published by Air Mail on Friday. A representative for Leto has denied the accusations. Allegations against the Thirty Seconds to Mars singer, 53, resurfaced last month when Los Angeles DJ Allie Teilz reshared a Facebook post she made in 2012 on her Instagram Story. 'Youre [sic] not really in L.A. until Jared Leto tries to force himself on you backstage… In a kilt.. And a snow hat. I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17,' she wrote. 'I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17,' she wrote in another Story. 'He knew my age and didn't care. What he did was predatory, terrifying and unacceptable.' The Independent has contacted Leto's representatives for comment. One of the women in the Air Mail article claims, 'it's been an open secret for a long time' that Leto is known for texting teenage models. Another said she was 16 when Leto approached her and got her number in 2006. She says the actor began calling her in the middle of the night and making sexual remarks. In response, a representative for the star said that Leto has been sober for more than 35 years after the accuser speculated that he was on drugs during the calls. Leto 'has not had a drink or used drugs in over 35 years,' said the spokesperson. Laura La Rue, a model who was also 16 when she said she met Leto, claimed she had a similar interaction after Leto invited her to visit him in his music studio. 'Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate,' Leto's representative told Air Mail, 'and Ms. La Rue later applied to work as Mr. Leto's personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions.' La Rue reportedly denied ever applying to work as Leto's personal assistant. A fourth woman, who said she began a texting relationship with Leto when she was still underage, said his advances ramped up when she turned 18. She claims that during a subsequent visit to Leto's house, he began masturbating in front of her. 'All of the allegations are expressly denied,' Leto's representative said in response. Leto rose to fame in the 1990s as Jordan Catalano on the cult TV series My So-Called Life before earning critical acclaim for transformative roles in Requiem for a Dream (2000), Dallas Buyers Club (2013), and Suicide Squad (2016). Alongside his acting career, he co-founded Thirty Seconds to Mars in 1998, achieving global success with hits like 'The Kill (Bury Me)' and 'Kings and Queens.' Over the years, Leto has become well known for his commitment to method acting. For his role as the Joker in Suicide Squad, he insisted on being addressed as 'Mister J' and told E! that he tried to 'create an element of spontaneity' on the set by sending strange presents such as 'used condoms' and 'anal beads' to the cast, which included Cara Delavigne and Margot Robbie. However, he later said he was just joking when he made the claims publicly in 2016. '99.9 per cent of what people read is bulls***. There were no used condoms,' he said. In 2018, Metro reported on a Twitter post by The Suite Life of Zack & Cody star Dylan Sprouse that read: 'Yo @JaredLeto now that you've slid into the DMs of every female model aged 18–25, what would you say your success rate is?' Sprouse, 32, is married to 31-year-old Hungarian model Barbara Palvin. Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn replied to Sprouse's tweet, saying: 'He starts at 18 on the internet?' If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, contact the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673). If you are in the UK, Rape Crisis offers support for those affected by rape and sexual abuse. You can call them on 0808 802 9999 in England and Wales, 0808 801 0302 in Scotland, and 0800 0246 991 in Northern Ireland, or visit their website at

Instagram Says Trial Reels Have Helped Creators Significantly Increase Their Reach
This story was originally published on Social Media Today. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Social Media Today newsletter. Instagram's trial Reels have been available for just on six months now, and IG is keen to get more creators trying out its audience sampling feature, in order to help boost content performance. As you can see in this example sequence, trial Reels are shown to a selection of users who don't follow your profile, which can give you early insight into the likely performance of your Reel. To be clear, trial Reels are not displayed to your followers, either in the main Feed or via the Reels tab. The idea is that this gives you an unbiased assessment of content quality, while also helping you potentially reach a broader audience. Which some have also used as a growth hack of sorts, in that you can get your content in front of a broader audience in the app by only showing your Reels to people who don't follow you. Within that, you can also re-post older posts as trial Reels as well, and some creators have found this to be an effective way to build their audience. Another element to consider. 'Approximately 24 hours after sharing a trial reel, you can view engagement data, such as views, likes, comments and shares. The more trial reels you create, the more insights you'll have to compare against other trial reels and the more understanding you'll have on what might perform best.' You're limited to 20 trial Reels per day, but outside of that, you can test and measure your initial Reels' response, which can then help to inform your content strategy. And for those who are using trial Reels, they have proven effective: 'After trying trial reels, 40% of creators started posting reels more often and of those who did, 80% saw an increase in reels reach from non-followers.' So it can help to guide your thinking on what to post, while you can also easily convert trial Reels into regular posts, which will then be shared with your followers. It could be a valuable tool in your IG strategy, and as Instagram notes, many creators are finding this a valuable tool for audience sampling. And IG clearly wants more creators to try it out. If you are thinking about adopting trial Reels, you need to have a professional account (though IG also says that some creators without a professional account may have access to trial reels as part of ongoing testing). You can activate a trial Reel in the publish element of the Reels upload process. Sign in to access your portfolio
