Lena Dunham declares Comedy Central star 'biggest misogynist' in Hollywood
Lena Dunham made her debut appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Wednesday, which meant she had to answer a set of bold questions from Cohen in a game of “Plead the Fifth.”
Dunham was asked to name the Hollywood celebrity she thinks is the biggest misogynist. While trying to decide, she said it should be someone who has criticized her body.
“This is not a person who has a ton of power, but the small amount he has had, he has used for ill,” Dunham said. “That’s Daniel Tosh.”
Tosh, a comedian and host of Comedy Central’s Tosh.0, has certainly made jokes about Dunham over the years.
“He said an unkind thing about my breasts,” Dunham said. “But he said it in a context where I think he was shutting down a lot of women for having bodies he didn’t consider to be normative.”
She initially went after Tosh on Twitter when he was in the news for making rape jokes at a comedy show in 2012.
Don’t know what Daniel Tosh did but I hear he once said a rude thing about my tits so I’M AGAINST HIM (aka may have dated him in college)

And her comments Wednesday indicate that Dunham isn’t letting up on him.
“It’s sort of like he’s a dumb one to mention because he can’t do anything, because he’s just some Herb,” Dunham said.
Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen airs Sundays through Thursdays at 11 p.m. on Bravo.
