Amanda Bynes appeared in public for the first time Drake Bell's child abuse claims against a former professional mentor… and she has a whole new look.
The ex-Nickelodeon child star came forward Friday for the first time since her former “Amanda Show” co-star went on the stage to make some serious allegations against her. Brian Peckin a new documentary in which his story is broadcast for the first time ever.
People have been wondering if Amanda herself would be part of this doc — “Quiet on Set” — since it affects many former child stars during Nickelodeon's heyday… which is why this sighting of her in LA is so so interesting.
As you can see… Amanda has a colorful hairstyle here, namely blonde on top with blue extensions. It's certainly a unique style — and somewhat in line with how she's been rocking lately.
Amanda has clearly been out of the spotlight for years, although these days she's showing signs of putting herself back in the spotlight… through podcasts and other companies. With this Nickelodeon documentary coming out, many have naturally wondered if she would come forward to make accusations of her own, but so far there has been no indication that she will speak out.
Drake, on the other hand, is willing to break his silence… which in itself is huge.
Don't forget, he starred on 'The Amanda Show' from 1999 to 2002 before getting his own Nickelodeon show in 2004… and he's one of the former child stars to do so to pronounce in the document.
The network says Drake will file claims against Peck, who worked as a dialogue coach on “The Amanda Show” and “Drake & Josh.”
Peck pleaded no contest in 2004 to committing a lewd act with a 14 or 15 year old and to oral copulation with a minor under the age of 16… and when the doctor comes out later this month, Drake is expected to he claims he's one of Peck's victims from that case.
Drake remained anonymous for decades… but now he and others are speaking out about the bad things that allegedly happened during their Nickelodeon days.
Peck's has worked on numerous children's shows over the years – including Amanda's – and recently some 'Boy Meets World' stars said in retrospect they regret joining with him at the time. Yes, he was also working with young actors at that time.
Amanda is mum on the whole subject so far… and it's unclear what message, if any, she's trying to convey with this fashion statement.
From the outside, it looks like she's telegraphing… don't mind me, I'm leaving this aside for now.
