Lena Dunham blast Kanye West over "Famous Video"

Kanye West has been receiving lots of backlash over "Famous" video featuring a who's who of American celebrities. There's Rihanna, Bill Cosby, Ray-J, Kanye and Kim, Anna Wintour,  Amber Rose, Donald Trump, Caitlyn Jenner and Taylor Swift. Each celebrity poses as a wax figure laying nude in bed in what is supposed to be a recreation of Vincent Desiderio's painting, "Sleep."

It's certainly art as spectacle. But as Dunham pointed out on Facebook, the video's disturbing display of female objectification is deeply sexist.

"Now I have to see the prone, unconscious, waxy bodies of famous women, twisted like they've been drugged and chucked aside at a rager? It gives me such a sickening sense of dis-ease," Dunham writes.
