Lena Dunham SHUTS DOWN rumor she has ‘beef’ with Melissa Joan Hart after actress did the same 

Melissa Joan Hart recently shut down a bizarre rumor that she was secretly feuding with director/actress Lena Dunham.

And now Lena has come forward to also deny that there is any dispute between herself and the Drive Me Crazy actress, 46.

“I’m not arguing with anyone. I literally live in London and barely leave my house,” the Girls star, 36, told the Who Weekly? podcast tuesday.

False: Lena Dunham is now shutting down the rumor that she and Melissa Joan Hart are ‘beefing’ after Melissa did the same thing last week

“I’ve never met Melissa Joan Hart, never been in a room with her, never seen her. I’ve seen all of Clarissa explain it all and all of Sabrina the teenage witch.”

She continued, “I only found out about this feud because Melissa Joan Hart said how much she heard about this feud, but let’s just say I didn’t hear about this feud until Melissa told Joan Hart how much she heard about this feud, you know what I mean? ‘

The kerfuffle all started when celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi posted a blind entry claiming that Melissa “broke it out” for Lena.

It read, “They’ve been enemies for a long time (Lena’s dad was friends with the creator of Clarissa Explains It All). The dinner fight over drag queens was just one piece of the puzzle.”

Lena’s father is artist Carroll Dunham and the creator of Clarissa Explains It All – in which Melissa starred from 1991 to 1994 – was Mitchell Kriegman.

No feuds: ‘I don’t argue with anyone. I literally live in London and barely leave my house,” the Girls star, 36, told the Who Weekly? podcast tuesday; Seen Lena in October

The post continued, “Melissa has a knack for alienating people in her life — they disappear like magic. Her views are controversial (and chaotic) and she really gets into fights about it. I haven’t seen the Instagram story, but it’s common knowledge in both circles that they’ve been fighting for a while.”

Another tipster sent in a blind entry that they witnessed Anjelica Huston punch Lena at a party after she worked on a Lifetime movie with Melissa.

Lena did confirm that her father and Kriegman “played doubles tennis,” but she never met him in person.

‘[Kriegman] gave me a Clarissa Explains It All T-shirt when I was 7, and also a denim jacket. It was very cool for me because I wasn’t a super popular kid and it was exclusive cast gear,” she explained during the podcast.

“That said, I’ve never met Mitchell Kriegman, although I’m a fan and appreciate his support.”

As for the alleged connection to Anjelica Huston, Lena simply stated that she “[doesn’t] think I’ve ever met the 71-year-old Addams Family star.

All in all, Lena was amazed at how quickly the rumor developed online and how there aren’t even any legitimate connections between the said parties.

“Having never met any of the people involved in this story and barely leaving my house since 2018, it was definitely a surprise, and I’m not going to say it didn’t tickle me,” she said.

“I’m a consumer of false gossip, so it’s always interesting for me to see how the sausage is made and then hear you eat the sausage, spit it out and make something new with it.”

Last week, Melissa didn’t mince words when she addressed these rumors, insisting that she and Lena had never met before.

She wrote: ‘So I don’t normally pay attention to the tabloid press but many friends have been asking me about my ‘rivalry’ with @lenadunham and I’m really confused.

“We don’t have ‘beef,’ and as far as I remember we haven’t even had the pleasure of meeting, let alone have enough relationship to warrant some time discussing drag queens.” Don’t let them get you with flashy links because they’ll pretend to tell you hot gossip that doesn’t exist.”

She went on to say that while they have never met, she is an admirer of the Girls star’s work and what she has done for women in the industry.

Melissa concluded, “I’m a fan of Lena’s work and everything she does to support women in our industry and hope to share a latte one day.”

“Be careful not to get caught up in the hateful rhetoric of these sites that promote divisiveness and spout nonsense for profit. #mytedtalk’
