Actress Amanda Bynes says she had a nose job

• Tweet

NEW YORK, May 7 (UPI) -- U.S. actress Amanda Bynes said via Twitter she is so happy with her nose job she doesn't want the media to use photos of her from before she had it.

Bynes, 27, was the star of TV's "The Amanda Show" and "What I Like About You," as well as the films "What A Girl Wants" and "Hairspray."

However, for the past year or so she has been better known for her erratic behavior, driving mishaps and Twitter rants than her acting.

In a tweet Sunday, Bynes said she had had plastic surgery, although she didn't say exactly when she had the procedure.

"I had a nose job to remove skin that was like a webbing in between my eyes," she wrote. "I wasn't going to tell anyone, but I look so much prettier in my new photos that I don't want old photos used anymore!"

She went on to say her new look was the "most amazing thing for my confidence!"
