Amanda Bynes took a page out of Wiz Khalifa's playbook Friday night in West Hollywood ... no, she wasn't rapping -- the troubled actress dyed her hair purple.

Amanda hit up Nine Zero One in West Hollywood ... we're told it was just a random salon walk-in. She stayed a few hours and we're told she was very polite.

Amanda paid with the little money she gets -- $50 to $100 a day.

As we previously reported ... Amanda's grousing she doesn't have enough money to get a hotel room for a night -- on Wednesday she roamed all night and fell asleep Thursday inside an L.A. mall.

Ashley Olsen (right) attended the 2014 World Of Children Awards in New York City on Thursday night alongside her formerly twin sister Mary-Kate.

28-year-old MK ... who's engaged to 45-year-old Olivier Sarkozy ... didn't quite go full-Zellweger, but something's up.

Hey, at least we can finally tell them apart.

Mariah Carey is one expensive chick to hire ... and we're not talking her day rate -- she charges nearly $85,000 just to look presentable.

It all came out in a shocking lawsuit, in which a photographer is suing Mariah's record label, claiming he prepped a photo shoot for the singer's album cover and it was cancelled for no reason.

In the legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- the photog lays out exactly what it takes to get Mariah camera ready:

Stylist -- $65,391
Hair stylist -- $9,600
Makeup artist -- $7,200
Manicurist -- $2,400

The photog is suing for his fee -- which totaled $150,000

High maintenance, for sure.

But the record label claims they never fully agreed on the terms of the contract ... so there's no breach and the label's not on the hook for the fee.

There's nothing satirical about "Weird Al" Yankovic's good looks!

Here's a 27-year-old version of the polka enthusiast just before his Michael Jackson's "Bad" parody prime (left) -- and 28 years later, the squeezebox slayer -- who celebrated his 55th birthday in October -- at a Hollywood charity event earlier this month (right).

Chelsea Handler blasted Eastern and Western culture all at once ... skewering Putin and Instagram for crass boob censorship.

Handler posted the pic with the caption, "Anything a man can do, a woman has the right to do better. #kremlin" ... but it got removed.

She then posted a screenshot of the Instagram post to her Twitter page, writing, "Taking this down is sexist. I have every right to show I have a better body than Putin."

Bruce Jenner has been taunted where he golfs everyday ... by a few jerks who think Bruce's new look doesn't belong on the links or in the locker room.

Sources connected with Bruce tell TMZ ... almost everyone who golfs with Bruce at his country club in Thousand Oaks has been gracious ... but several people are acting like 14-year-old boys.

In one case ... a golfer passed Bruce on the green and screamed out, "How's your d**k" ... suggesting it might not be there much longer. Bruce was cool -- he laughed and responded by pointing to his crotch and saying, "It's right here. It hasn't worked in 20 years."

Another guy heckled Bruce in the locker room, mocking his ombre hairstyle and threatening to cut it off.

Bruce still goes to the club religiously, and most people treat him warmly and with respect.

As for the 2 idiots ... it's 2014, and people have a right to live their lives the way they want as long as they don't hurt anyone. And Bruce can probably kick their asses in golf.

Miley Cyrus and Rihanna showed up Wednesday night to a Halloween party in Los Angeles dressed as high-class escorts.

Wait, it wasn't a Halloween party? It was the 2014 amfAR Inspiration Gala, a charity benefit for AIDS research?

Bruce Jenner showed his true colors in Malibu Wednesday.

Bruce 86'd the fire engine red nail polish he sported just a day earlier. It's unclear why ... the polish looked professional and usually lasts a lot longer than a day.

Maybe it was part of a Halloween costume. Or maybe he just wanted it for a day. Lots of maybes.

Bruce Jenner treated himself to a fresh coat for his 65th birthday.

Jenner was tooling around Malibu Tuesday when he lit up a cigarette, revealing the fire engine red nails.

It looks like he nailed up to celebrate the milestone ... his nails were unpainted earlier in the day.

Long-haired beauties Alessandra Ambrosio and Jared Leto hit up the grand opening of Rimowa store in New York City on Tuesday night.

The question (and please vote your conscience) is ...

Go ahead. Keep rubbing your eyes ... that is actually "Clerks" director Kevin Smith after shaving off his trademark beard.

Smith unveiled the bald faced pic Monday ... writing on Facebook, "Look at this goofy spaz. This is me, beardless, for the #YogaHosers green screen shoot. It's a Face-Brazilian!"

That's a ton of wax.

Justin Bieber can put Bill Clinton to shame ... and if you doubt that check out this video of the Biebs zeroing in on a very hot model he ultimately reels in.

Bieber was cruising Rodeo Drive in a Rolls-Royce when he caught a glimpse of Jacqueline Younis ... who was in the middle of a photo shoot for Festoun clothing.

JB ordered his driver to stop ... and he then summoned the damsel to the Rolls ... and she obliged.

Bieber -- practically drooling -- took a pic with her and it looked like they were about to exchange numbers, but his fame got in the way ... too many photogs, too many fans.

BTW ... check out his pickup line, comparing her to a Disney character. It's super Goofy.

Renee Zellweger is alive and well -- she popped up in Hollywood, but ... uhh... hardly anyone knew it since her old face has gone into hiding.

RZ's trademark squint is gone, and now the question is: can we warm up to the new her?

Kris Jenner is way more bush league than we thought ... if you want to make yourself look younger by photoshopping, don't do it AFTER someone else posts the pic of you looking older than you want.

Kris is hawking her new cookbook and Gordon Ramsey gave it his stamp of approval. But check out Gordon's Instagram and then compare it to Kris's. Clearly she doesn't believe cookbooks get better with age.

Here's 45-year-old Renee Zellweger at the 21st annual Elle Women in Hollywood Awards on Monday night ... and 10 years earlier at an event in London.

Despite not appearing in a movie since 2010, Renee has definitely been working for the last few years ... on her face.

Columbus Short has a new lady in his life who says she doesn't give a damn about his violent past -- and she's not scared because with her ... he's totally submissive.

Columbus's new GF Rashida Russel says they met while he was in Barbados, and the romance continued once they got back to the States (where he was wanted, by the way).

Short is still not divorced from the estranged wife he allegedly threatened to kill -- but his new lady says he's never been abusive, and adds ... "He treats me like a queen!"

He even moved her from NY to ATL where he now lives.

Russell says she's helping to keep Columbus focused while he works on recording music ... by remembering all of his calendar appointments and appearances. Sounds more like an assistant, but hey ... whatever works.
