Lena Dunham has finally opened up about her awkward red carpet kiss with Brad Pitt last year.

The incident took place at the London premiere of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood when the 33-year-old was photographed leaning in to kiss 56-year-old Pitt while he stared off into the distance.

In the video below, Dunham discusses flashing Brad Pitt her underwear: 

On Watch What Happens Live!, Lena said: "I don't know if you remember there was a sort of awkward photo taken of the two of us."

"Well, the way the internet read it was I had somehow physically accosted him causing him a great deal of stress… I would never force a kiss on Brad Pitt. I respect him far too much as an artist and a friend.

Later that night because he knew I felt nervous, he took me into a room and we secretly ate pizza and I told him I like his ring and he gave it to me."

Dunham starred alongside Pitt and a host of other well-known stars in the Quentin Tarantino movie.

The Girls star featured in a video call with Dua Lipa, 24, on Monday night, and she opened up about what it's like to flirt with celebrities on social media.

As part of the video call, Dunham and Lipa played a game with Andy Cohen, 51, during the at-home edition of the Bravo talk show.

He asked the actress if she had "ever slid into another celebrity's DMs for some light flirting", and they both said yes.

When pressed for names, Dunham admitted, "Honestly, I'm gonna say something. I'm gonna say something. It was one of the Skarsgard brothers and I can't remember which."

She added that he had given her a "cosy" response.

Meanwhile, Lipa revealed that she'd slid into the DMs of her now-boyfriend Anwar Hadid, 20.
