Bynes, who is now 24, said she’s not digging acting much anymore and she doesn’t plan to continue. Bynes revealed her retirement in a series of tweets:

I’ve never written the movies & tv shows I’ve been apart of I’ve only acted like the characters the producers or directors wanted me to play

Being an actress isn’t as fun as it may seem

If I don’t love something anymore I stop doing it

I don’t love acting anymore so I’ve stopped doing it

I know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first I’ve #retired

Bynes, who has previously starred in Nick’s All That and The Amanda Show, is appearing in a film called Easy A later this year. Reps for the actress have not commented on her future plans or whether she was entirely serious about retirement.
