Report: Bynes discusses killing parents on tape

Amanda Bynes was recorded as saying she wants to kill her parents, who currently have control over her finances.

Amanda Bynes' rage at her parents shows no signs of dissipating.

Early Saturday morning, TMZ posted two recordings it says are Bynes conversing with a friend about wanting to kill her parents, who currently have control over her finances and medical care.

On the tape, which appears to have been made in a car, Bynes says she wants to murder her father but hasn't decided how. She also says she's called her mother and threatened to "slit her wrists and burn down her house."

She ends the rambling spiel by telling the friend, "you're so gay, it hurts my feelings."

Unnamed family members told TMZ that they wanted the tape to go public in hopes it might bring about some kind of medical intervention. She was under psychiatric hold at a Los Angeles hospital for much of October.

On Saturday afternoon, she took to Twitter to make a vague apology about calling people ugly. "I apologize to everyone that I called ugly but everyone has been making me act so ugly by posting horrible shots of me that i cant help but act out."
