Lena Dunham has joined the ranks of celebs including Karl Lagerfeld and Doris Day and answered the magazine’s famous Proust questionnaire.

Here’s what we learnt from the writer/actress/all-round awesome person’s answers.

1. Hate the start to the working week? Dunham loves it, saying she is happiest when “I get to work on a Monday morning and see the crew, eating breakfast quesadillas and talking shit”.

2. Despite winning a Golden Globe and having three Emmy nominations to her name, the 28 year old says she considers moving out of her parents house as her greatest achievement.

3. The lady likes a bit of bling – she says her most treasured possession is a Victorian diamond cocktail ring given to her by her boyfriend, Jack Antonoff.

4. Never serve Dunham a “chicken of the sea”. She lists “canned tuna” as one of the things she most dislikes. (That and ignorance.)

5. Her dog, Lamby, might be the new Choupette. Asked what is her greatest extravagance and she said, “I’m quite frugal, but my dog has a whole staff.”
