Amanda Bynes’ parents, Lynn and Rick Bynes, are upset about comments Kim Kardashian made about their daughter during her Monday appearance on Chelsea Lately.

Kardashian appeared on the show with her sisters and said she is “obsessed” with Amanda’s makeover. She told talk show host Chelsea Handler, "Am I the only one that is obsessed with her new makeover? Kardashian had said. "I think she looks amazing. With the blonde hair and those nails?"

Amanda’s parents, who are worried about the Easy A star, reportedly felt the comments were inappropriate.

“They thought the remarks Kim Kardashian made were in poor taste and are very upset over it,” a source said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The source added that Amanda “is having some sort of crisis.”

Amanda's makeover is part of her troubling behavior and her parents want the media to leave the actress alone, the insider said. Amanda is lost and refusing to seek help, and her parents are saying that media involvement is only exacerbating the situation.

“Her parents are powerless to do anything because she is 27 years of age and there is very little they can do," according to the source. "Amanda's parents hope that people, including Kim, would start to show empathy towards their daughter at this time."

Even if Kardashian was joking about Amanda's appearance, it's not funny. The insider added, “Amanda is in trouble and she doesn’t need to be a punch line in a joke.”
