Amanda Bynes accosts two strangers in Atlantic City for taking her picture

Amanda Bynes now apparently doesn't want publicity because she lashed out at two strangers who snapped some pictures of her while she was out shopping in Atlantic City.

According to Radar Online, Brett Cohen and his father Bobby were near the Revel Resort in A.C. when they spotted Bynes’ familiar unkempt blonde wig.

The actress had a large handbag and a pet carrier and was reportedly “stumbling and reeked of alcohol.”

Cohen’s father took out his cell phone to take a few pictures of Bynes, but when she saw him Cohen claims that she “started yelling at my dad and lunging at him.”

E! News had more details on the incident, quoting Cohen as saying, “As soon as he took the picture she kind of stopped and said ‘Sir, I need you to delete that. You can't take pictures of me.' She kind of lunged at him to take his phone.”

He continued, “She is trying to grab his phone from him and he starts walking away from her. She started following him and touching his shoulder trying to get his phone.”

Eventually security guards came to calm Bynes down and to pull her away from the Cohens.

It’s a wonder that Bynes reacted so strongly to the amateur photographers considering that she recently told a close friend that her abrasive online behavior and public meltdowns were all a desperate ploy for attention, we reported just days ago.

Bynes insisted, “I am an actress and know what I am doing…I am smart and not stupid. Everyone mentions my name. The world loves me!”

Perhaps this, too, was just a scene in Bynes’ on-going melodrama.
