Amanda Bynes was "obviously joking" about wanting to murder her parents.
An audio recording of the 28-year-old actress threatening to kill her parents, Rick and Lynn Bynes, and then burn their house has emerged online – but Amanda insists she made the comments in "jest".
She took to Twitter to clarify her remarks, saying: "By the way – I was obviously joking about hurting my family – I straight up don’t believe in harming a soul (sic)."
Amanda – who left a psychiatric hospital last month – continued: "I said what I said in jest & if you don’t understand that then know I’m in therapy to talk about my dad issues and that will solve my concerns with ppl invading my private life.
"When I said I want @drake to murder my vagina did anyone think I was asking him to actually murder my vagina.
"I think not. So take what I say lightly because I am the nicest girl."
The ‘Easy A’ star was recently caught sleeping on a sofa in a Beverly Hills shopping mall in California, saying she couldn’t afford a hotel because her parents – who have control of her finances – wouldn’t give her enough money.
