Most Encouraging Feminist Celebrities

2. Lena Dunham

In the last few years, Lena Dunham has caused more of a whirlwind around her than the majority of Hollywood’s newcomers put together. Why? Well, her HBO show Girls shines an entirely new light on the modern day female reality, by creating characters far from the stereotypes we’re accustomed to seeing on TV. And like most feminists, her views have been repeatedly attacked by men (and some women), but the 28-year-old has stood her ground and is now more successful than ever.
