After a decade of troubles, embattled celebrity Amanda Bynes launched a new podcast on Saturday with friend Paul Sieminski and debuted platinum hair buns.
The inaugural episode of “Amanda Bynes & Paul Sieminski: The Podcast,” available on Spotify and YouTube, marks the “She’s the Man” actress’ first on-screen project since her 2010 comedy “Easy A.”
“First episode of ‘Amanda Bynes & Paul Sieminski: The Podcast’ done,” Bynes, 37, wrote Saturday on Instagram alongside a photo of herself, Sieminski, and tattoo artist Dahlia Moth, who met the “Hairspray” actress while working at a Spirit Halloween store in Los Angeles.
Bynes retired from acting in 2010 as rumors of substance abuse surfaced. Following a very public breakdown, she was placed under a conservatorship in August 2013.
Bynes was diagnosed with bipolar disorder during her eight-year conservatorship.
The Post reached out to her reps for comment.
The ex-Nickelodeon star teased the podcast last month, stating, “At first we are going to interview our friends and then we’re hoping to take it mainstream and interview celebrities and artists.”
“It’s super impressive that Paul is going to be a part of it because he’s a scientist and a biochemist,” she added of Sieminski. “So having his beautiful mind being a part of this podcast is just going to bring it to another level I think, ’cause he’s going to ask great questions, and I think he’ll kind of carry most of the weight in terms of just, like, topics of conversation.”
The inaugural episode touched on tattoos, with Bynes declaring, “Nobody cares anymore if people have face tattoos. It shouldn’t matter.”
Bynes has a small heart tattooed on her left cheek.
The podcast premiere dropped after the “Big Fat Liar” star shocked fans by rocking a platinum blond hairstyle while walking home Thursday from a Starbucks in Marina del Rey, California.
She had been sporting dark locks as of late.
The changes follow a tumultuous year for the “What a Girl Wants” star that saw her check in and out of mental health facilities.
In March, the former child actress was spotted wandering the streets of LA naked before she was arrested by police.
The “All That” star was supposed to attend a ’90s-themed convention, but was forced to skip it at the last minute as the ordeal unfolded.
Bynes was set to reunite with “All That” castmates Kel Mitchell, Danny Tamberelli, Lori Beth Denberg and Kenan Thompson.
“I’ve just been praying for her,” Mitchell, 45, told “Entertainment Tonight” at the convention.
Bynes was released from her conservatorship in March 2022.
