Amanda Bynes returned to the Chateau Marmont – scene of many early 00s shenanigans – to help a friend celebrate their birthday.
The Amanda Show alum, 38, wore a light grey tank top and black leggings with white athletic shoes.
She had her platinum blonde hair pulled half-up and half-down with dark roots visible.
The She’s All That star carried a gift bag emblazoned with the message ‘Happy Birthday’ as she walked into the iconic venue on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles.
As Amanda – who is in school to become a manicurist – entered the hotel, the manicurist-in-training looked down at her phone.
Also seen at the birthday bash was Natasha Lyonne from the show Poker Face.

The sighting comes after the debut of the Investigation Discovery series Quiet on the Set: The Dark Side of Kid’s TV.
The series dove into the avalanche of allegations of a ‘toxic environment’ against former Nickelodeon executive Dan Schneider’s reign at the network in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Former Nickelodeon star Raquel Lee Bolleau shared her experience of alleged abuse.
She claimed Bynes once spat in her face multiple times.
Raquel, who is now the voice of Nubia Gross in The Proud Family, focused in particular about a skit called The Literals, which involved Amanda repeatedly spitting her drink on Raquel.

According to Raquel’s recollection, Amanda repeatedly spat in her face while filming the skit, even when nobody told her to do so.
‘Everybody thought it was so funny. Everybody’s laughing, but I did not find it funny,’ she recalled during the final bonus episode of Quiet On Set. ‘The third time, I was infuriated.’
The actress added that the director tried to calm her down, recalling being ‘so mad.’
‘The director hurried and put me on the side of the set and was like, “Listen, Raquel. Breathe in. Breathe out. She’s the star of the show,”‘ she continued.
‘Since I haven’t passed the board exam yet to get my manicurist license, I started back at school to study manicurist theory to practice doing acrylics,’ she wrote in the Instagram post, seen in 2009

Raquel, 37, starred in the first season of the Nickelodeon sketch comedy series and thought the show would be her big break.
In recent years, Amanda has been trying to launch a new career as a manicurist and last month she shared an update on her progress.
‘Since I haven’t passed the board exam yet to get my manicurist license, I started back at school to study manicurist theory to practice doing acrylics,’ she wrote in the Instagram post.
She continued, saying she plans to take the test again: ‘So I’ll be good to go when I get a job at a nail salon.’
