Amanda Bynes 'pinched' photographer

Los Angeles - A paparazzo has accused Amanda Bynes of pinching him.

The 26-year-old actress who recently had her car impounded, her driving licence suspended and is facing a charge of driving under the influence, had a run-in with a photographer on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, which quickly escalated into a war of words.

Amanda begged the photographer to delete a picture of her because she wasn't happy with her appearance.

'I have to look beautiful'

In a video obtained by Entertainment Tonight, Amanda says: "You have to delete the one of my face, I have to look beautiful."

In the footage that Entertainment Tonight obtained, the actress tries to get the photographer to do as she asks by complimenting him saying: "Let's get along. I like your shirt." Soon after she loses her temper when he fails to delete the picture.

The photographer can be heard saying: "Can you stop pinching me? All right, stop? Amanda, stop pinching me it is not necessary. Let me go, what the hell is wrong with you? Stop that!"

Just recently Amanda's parents have leased out their home in Cedar Park, Texas, and intend to sell it so that they can move to Los Angeles to be by her side.

Sources close to the family say they have no plans to pursue a conservatorship which would give them legal control over Amanda, but they want to be on-hand to support their daughter.
