LOS ANGELES >> Lena Dunham is apologizing to New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. for making “narcissistic assumptions” about his motivations in an article published Friday on her website Lenny Letter.
In a discussion with Amy Schumer about the most recent Met Gala, Dunham said she was seated near Beckham, who she claimed was looking at his cellphone instead of her because he found her sexually unappealing.
Dunham apologized Saturday on her social media accounts, saying she projected her personal insecurities onto the football star and presented them as facts. She said she and Beckham have never met and, “after listening to a lot of valid criticism” understands that it is wrong to ascribe misogynistic thoughts to a stranger.
Beckham has not acknowledged Dunham’s original comments or apology on his social media accounts.

He shouldn’t bother to comment on anything Dunham and Schumer say.
Who on earth cares what she says. Who is she? Way too much time is wasted on media garbage and non-news like this.
These “thought police” crackpots what to attack you for they think you’re thinking. PC idiocy at it’s finest. …and you are unattractive.
VERY unattractive. I’d look at a cellphone or movie poster or anything
At least she had the presence to apologize. I think the woman may have some problems about her self-image though.
A female liberal disaster. Can she get mentally uglier?
I can’t understand why some people have to politicize things that are just issues of bad behavior? Liberal? Really? I’m guessing you can’t get a date.
I can remember when I was a kid paying a nickel to see a freak like Lena Dunham in a carnival sideshow.
If you like indie films. Go see Tiny Furniture.
