Time to Raise the WHM Alert

And here we were thinking that, perhaps, she had gotten it together.

Alas, it’s time to raise the Walking Hot Mess (WHM) Alert again, to orange, at the very least: Amanda Bynes has been arrested again.

For a DUI.

Like, weeks after the year-long conservatorship that her parents had had over her affairs expired.

Bynes was pinched in L.A. yesterday after she stopped for a red light...in the middle of an intersection in the Valley.

The arresting officer conducted a bunch of field sobriety tests, and she was taken in on suspicion of driving under the influence when she failed ’em all. Marijuana is widely believed to be the cause of her woes.

Damn.

Damn because, for a year, Bynes had not let it get – to borrow one of her phrases – ugly. She (well, her parents) had avoided a Lohan-style string of back-to-back stoopid in her life (allegedly throwing her bong out the 36th-floor window of her Manhattan apartment, if not later being held on a 5150, was to be the peak of the crazy...or so we thought). She reportedly had been taking classes at the FIDM Fashion Institute in the O.C. Things were looking up.

Now, though, she is in big-time trouble (or in as much trouble as a Hollywood starlet can get), for girlfriend is still on probation from a 2012 DUI.

Fingers crossed this will be only a minor personal setback, big picture-wise. It should be fairly major, legally speaking....

On a related note, this is also a big bummer for all who are pro-marijuana, huh. Bynes and her antics sure ain’t helping matters.

Damn for them, too.
