Keep Amanda Bynes, Let These Actors Retire

Miley Cyrus, Megan Fox, Kristen Stewart are disposable

(Newser) – News that 24-year-old Amanda Bynes is retiring from acting doesn't sit well with Richard Lawson. "There were signs of some charm in her fluffy teen pics," he writes for Gawker, and besides, plenty of other no-talent actors could quit without causing a moment's pain:

  • Kristen Stewart: Whether in the Twilight movies, indies, or chick flicks, "every time, Kristen Stewart is just being mumbly, mopey, slappable Kristen Stewart. She's one-note, and that note is annoying."

  • Chace Crawford: The Gossip Girl star is "very pretty," but his stock was dropping even before his recent drug bust. "I put him in a paper bag three years ago and he's still stuck in it. He just hasn't been able to act his way out of it."
  • Megan Fox: So far past her expiration date, "one of her two upcoming projects is a movie starring Mickey Rourke about an angel getting rescued by a trumpet player. Seriously!"

Why does everyone have to keep dissing Kristen? Here's a tip: why don't you go out and try to do half of the stuff she's doing right now and then criticize her? Really, it's just extremely immature and stupid that all of you people want to keep dogging her for doing her job. It's really ridiculous. What has the girl ever done to any of you for you to talk about her like you do? It's really a waste of time anyway, it's not like she actually cares about what you say. Just find something else to talk about, seriously.

Well, gotta assume he's kidding about Streep, but the others, especially Fox and Stewart ... PLEASE let them get bored with acting soon.
