Amanda Bynes has been on a rollercoaster ride from her bizarre tweets to her most recent arrest, but is someone who has been in a similar situation reaching out to the troubled star?
According to Celebrity Fix, Britney Spears has reached out to the former child star to help through her most recent troubles. The report indicates Spears tried to establish communication with Bynes before her arrest and asking her to reach out to her parents for help.
"Britney had a brief conversation with Amanda the week before her arrest and promised to personally help Amanda get her career back on track by helping her record music," the source said. "Britney also opened up to Amanda about her painful breakdown and about how she was so against her dad taking out a conservatorship - but she told Amanda that it wound up being a life, career and fortune saver."
Spears, 31, is no stranger to any of this. In 2007, following her divorce from then-husband Kevin Federline, the singer went on a downfall. The singer exemplified bizarre behavior and even shaved her head in front of the paparazzi to watch. All came crashing down in 2008 when she was hospitalized and placed Spears on conservatorship under her father Jamie Spears.
Since her infamous breakdown, the "Circus" singer has been placed under conservatorship and the source revealed that "Brit was able to get Amanda's cell phone from her parents, whom she contacted first to offer support and guidance. Brit and her dad have provided Amanda's parents with details about how a conservatorship works."
The singer has also vowed to stay by Bynes' side "through her recovery and not ditch her - as so many celeb friends did to Brit when she broke down."
Bynes, 27, was arrested last week in New York City and has a court date set in July.
