Amanda Bynes - 1996 10 year old stand up

[@TheGreekPianist]

She was my favorite comedian growing up, I swore by the Amanda Show, and still think she has the potential. She was naturally born talented, and that's something that will always be in her.

[@zeytun4290]

her delivery is so good.

[@baldoraldo315]

This is an amazing performance. Amanda's delivery and command of the stage were signs of what was to come. The material is funny and appropriate to her age and experience. I wish I would've seen this in 1996!

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

Amanda was such a talented child she really was genuinely funny, entertaining, and a precious little girl. The documentary made me cry, all those shows were my childhood and they gave us so much and i was really terribly upset to just know what happened to these people. It all makes sense

[@rocknrollmilitant]

As long as it doesn't come at the expense of her recovery.

[@AdVictoriam93]

She's still young.

[@Mr.PR2000]

I think she’s too far gone mentally bro.

[@hannahgates2994]

I’m not too sure about that… no offense & not hate, but have you seen how she looks lately? It’s honestly heartbreaking, & still very shocking like I’m still trying to process it. She looks like a completely different person now. And her mental health is extremely fragile. I’m scared she might try to end her life or something. She could be easily triggered putting herself out there again

[@Dudeonwheels]

Man she had stage presence at 10 years old that I've seen lacking in some adult standup shows.

[@beitie]

Some of the most priceless facial expressions you'll ever see. Wow. I watched her a lot growing up, and the movie Easy A made me want to look back, so glad I did!

[@Douglasman123]

This is so sad now after watching Quite One set . It cannot be entirely confirme but I’m pretty sure Schneider and Nickelodeon did a number on her . Maybe the years took their toll on her . I hope she gets better or some level of normalcy and peace in her life .

[@fishpasted]

This is why i have so much respect for entertainers. Most of em start young and theyre practically fearless when performing in front of an audience :o

[@mmurph617]

Amanda Bynes was introduced by Arsenio, and Richard Pryor was in the audience. She was surrounded by legends.

[@emilydestefano2883]

She is the most adorable kid ever!

[@TheGreekPianist]

Hahahaha she was so NATURALLY funny! Much funnier than adult comedians. Her line delivery and facial expressions were great. I’m so glad she got her own show and starred in many films. I really miss her! ♥️

[@Trangsetter8888]

Did he call her Amanda Burns?

[@DisneyPro664]

[@AshleeisLegit]

probably just read it wrong. probably thought it said byrnes

[@Marichuy92]

I always loved the way she rolls her eyes

[@jerelminter]

You can't really put the pressure on Amanda Bynes, I mean she was a little girl when she started acting and didn't have a normal childhood like the rest of us did, because of the fame and the bright lights at such a young age and all she wanted to do was go outside and do regular things without being seen or heard all the time. It's no wonder Amanda got crazy later on, we're the ones who made her that way.

[@jerelminter]

@Kelly Kelso Thank goodness you did, other former child actresses like Amanda weren't so lucky because that was what she did for most of her life. It ended up destroying her later on, it's so sad.

[@salubriousinfo]

Dan Schneider and her parents are responsible

[@evanfisher7361]

No. The real Amanda Bynes is already dead. The crazy one is her impersonator.

[@jerelminter]

@@evanfisher7361 The crazy one you're talking about is the real Amanda Bynes. She's a person just like you and I, you think celebrities don't have personal issues ? You think just because she appeared to be happy in the media that that's the way she was supposed to be 24/7 ? Well I got news for you Evan, it ain't like that.

[@evanfisher7361]

@@jerelminter she didn't appear to be happy, she appeared to be smart, witty, talkative, upbeat, for 25 years. If she broke down for a couple of years I can understand that. But she's literally changed into a different person at least in personality. Way too much. People generally DO NOT change that much, unless they are forced by poverty, and have no opportunities like she does! Otherwise it's got to be an alien parasitic living inside of her now. Or maybe it's not just one impersonator but many, hired by her family who murdered her! I can't have it any other way. She's got so many opportunities. And look at how she sang in Hair Spray!! Girls who sing like that do not become like this. It's just impossible.

[@shadyshady3390]

Sooo Talented. She had it all. Damn shame what they did to her 😢. She was gonna be BIG TIME. Bigger than TV, movies

[@JenniferPoole.33272]

I was 5 when she was 10 in 1996. She’s one of the best actors I grew up with. She made a lot of us laugh. Sad that we didn’t know what she and others have been through in these old years. FU*K Dan Schneider, Brian Peck and many others who did stuff to Amanda, Drake and others!!

[@Rose32285]

So much talent and fame, so early in her life. I think former child star Mara Wilson said it best when she commented that people like Amanda sometimes have so many acting jobs and so much power as kids, then don’t quite know what to do when they suddenly don’t have that anymore. Amanda had so much success with All That, then eventually her own show, and all those feel good comedies she did as a teenager, when critics were calling her the next Lucille Ball with her knack for physical comedy. By all accounts, she had the potential to keep going as an actress, but it just doesn’t always work out that way, for whatever reason. The problem is that Hollywood is such a fickle business-they adore these kids when they’re little and cute, but transitioning to adult roles is an entirely different animal. It definitely is sad when you hear stories like this one.

Haha pretty sharp for a kid shame shes such a screw up now. Would have been interesting to see if she would have stayed away from lousy sitcoms and went the stand up route.

[@jerelminter]

Everyone screws up, celebrities are no different from you and I. The only difference is that we don't have our problems broadcasted on national television for the whole world to see, or have magazines and newspapers published about the incident for people to read about. The media doesn't even tell you the truth, most of the time when they can't get the story about what really happened, they lie about it.

[@Truthbtold2no]

Every entertainer has gotten into show business for pretty much that same reason...they believed they had talent and wanted to show the world. It wasn't an issue of whether they were any good or not, or if they had personal psychological things going on with them. The main thing is that they chose to pursue this and risked everything before a self-righteous, prejudging and severely critical viewing public too chicken-s**t or talent-less to take this same risk. They get my respect.
