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.
