Amanda Bynes thinks it's "extremely unfair" that she is now being compared to Lindsay Lohan.

The Easy A actress has been hitting the headlines a lot recently following her DUI arrest and heavy partying lifestyle.

But sources close to the former teen star says she is nothing like the Mean Girls starlet despite the obvious similarities.

"Amanda thinks it's extremely unfair that people are calling her the new Lindsay Lohan" the insider told RadarOnline.

"Comparisons between the two are just ridiculous as Amanda has never been arrested for drug possession or for stealing anything.

"Yes, she got arrested for a DUI, but that doesn't mean that she is headed down the same road as Lindsay. Amanda doesn't harbor any negative feelings towards Lindsay, she doesn't even know her, she just thinks it's sexist that the two are being compared.

"Men in Hollywood that get arrested for DUI's don't face the same scrutiny that women do and that is what really irks Amanda. She isn't taking the DUI arrest lightly."

Amanda has apparently refused advice to enter rehab despite loved ones thinking she has been on a "downward spiral for the last six months."
