Tip that man, Lena!

On Wednesday morning she tweeted at Jewish “2 Broke Girls” star Kat Dennings and her the show’s co-star, Beth Behrs, that her local bodega man in New York has confused for one of the two beauties.

“I’m not correcting him,” she wrote.
Fans wanted to know which one but Dunham hasn’t said.
One advised her to just “roll with it.”
Actor Jon Cryer snarked: “The guy at my auto body shop thinks I’m the guy from ‘Three Men and a Baby’.” Which he is.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
