LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Amanda Bynes is back.

After retiring from acting last month at the age of 24, Amanda Tweeted what appeared to be her return on Friday night.

“i’ve unretired,” she posted on her Twitter account on Friday.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Amanda hit Twitter last month to announce she was leaving acting, Tweeting, “Being an actress isn’t as fun as it may seem… If I don’t love something anymore I stop doing it. I don’t love acting anymore so I’ve stopped doing it.”

At the time, however, she did admit that she was a little young to call it quits.

“I know 24 is a young age to retire but you heard it here first,” she tweeted. “I’ve #retired.”

Following her star-making roles on Nickelodeon’s sketch comedy “All That” and her own show on the network, “The Amanda Show,” Amanda starred alongside Jennie Garth on the WB sitcom “What I like About You” and hit the big screen in such films as “She’s The Man” and “Hairspray.”

She hits screens this fall in the comedy “Easy A,” co-starring Emma Stone on September 17.

I thought Amanda Bynes would be the next Anita Mui after announcing her retirement from acting, only to return to acting after a short time.

(Anita Mui was an actress and singer from Hong Kong who retired in 1992 and unretired in 1994. She lived for exactly four decades.)

Well, good. I thought her retiring was stupid anyway. She's another Jay-Z.

"Easy A" had already finished filming before she announced her retirement - has there been any word on what exactly she came out of retirement to do?

I don't think she has come out of retirement at all. She said on twitter a few days later that she was still retired and that she just wanted to post the trailer for Easy A. If she actually had come out of retirement I think she would have done press for the movie.

Can what she does in films actually be called "acting?"

Yeah. She's a great comedic actress.

She should be appearing in a new sitcom, which should be better than this show. Which is good!
