What’s wrong with Lena Dunham?

Anonymous
It’s not like she was passing by him and handled a greeting awkwardly. She was in a photo lineup and left the lineup to target him specifically. Everything about this says attention grabbing narcissist.

Ok she’s so gross!



few weeks ago, paparazzi surrounded the set of Quentin Tarantino's upcoming movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and managed to snap a shot of Lena Dunham lifting her dress and apparently flashing Brad Pitt.

Was this part of the movie?" Jimmy Kimmel asked.

Shaking her head, Dunham replied, "Certainly no. That was between takes, [with] him trying to sort of chill and brush up on his lines. It made sense in the moment. We were talking about kewpie dolls. Do you guys know what a kewpie doll is? It's like an illustrated character of the 1920s. Someone asked, 'What's a kewpie doll?' And I said, 'Well, I can show you. I've got one right here on my side'...If you've got it illustrated on your body, who are you not to show this?"

Wary of how things can be misconstrued—as the set photos inevitably were—Dunham was advised against recreating that moment with Kimmel. "My publicist actually asked me directly not to do it again on this show. She said, 'No matter what comes up out there..." she said with a devilish grin. Of course, that only made it more appealing: "I want to do it really bad right now!"

A free human being with dominion over her own body? This quote is crazy.

This was super weird and inappropriate of her, and Brad/Leo would have been destroyed for doing the same. She's a hypocrite with no sense of personal boundaries. I say this as someone who really wants to like her, wants to cheerlead her, because Hollywood does need feminist voices and non-size-zero bodies. But she ain't it.
She's also gotten a HUGE pass on that story of fondling her sister as a child that she revealed in her book. Makes me frustrated with my fellow liberals when they give people a pass.

It doesn't matter if it's man-on-woman, woman-on-man, woman-on-woman (Madonna, I'm looking at you) or man-on-man. If it's unwanted, it shouldn't happen.

Wow, she's awful.

She’s ill. I don’t say that unkindly. She has “SICK” tattooed on the back of her neck. She had a hysterectomy although it is not a definite cure for endo. I’m pretty sure that she’s very mentally ill, but focusing on physical ailments.

Exactly. I don’t understand her at all. She seems impulsive and confused about how to function in life.


If you were ugly and socially awkward naturally, you would have grown up with people holding you at a distance. This would cause you to be under-socialized. Thus, when you DO socialize, you're so excited to finally be allowed somewhere that someone like Brad Pitt is also, and possibly nervous and possibly thinking this may be your only chance to be around them, and thus you force a kiss.

You're obviously not ugly or socially awkward. I am, so I understand. I wouldn't have done what she did (any of the things she's done), but I understand her being confused about how to function in life, because I often am too.

Yup. And she has said she was sexually assaulted and sexually harassed by directors. So it’s not ok if it happens TO her but it’s ok if it happens BY her?

She is in the movie, was on set with them, and is now out doing promotion for it. This wasn't her only chance to be around them.

Gross. Sexual harassment and like the previous poster said, Brad Pitt would be crucified if he did that to her (as he should).

She grew up incredibly privileged, the child of famous artists. She's definitely been socialized around some famous people, including actors, growing up.

If anything, her behavior reeks of the opposite--her thinking she's hot sh*t because she grew up so entitled.

Also, Girls launched in 2012, it's been five years since she's been on the Vogue cover. Sorry, the whole "she has no idea how to behave around famous people" line is total BS.

Exactly right


She literally grew up running around with the kids of models and famous musicians (e.g., Jemima Kirke) and folks like that. Seriously, she is a gazillion times more socialized from birth and privileged than even her celeb counterparts.
