Jonah Hill and CNN anchor Don Lemon got into something of a bitchfight this week, reports TMZ. Apparently Lemon saw Hill leaving the bathroom of a hotel, said hello and shook hands with him, but later claimed that Hill treated him like "a bellman."

It all went down on Twitter. Here's the exchange:

Hill apparently tweeted back "I said hi what do you want me to do move in with you? I was in a hurry. Didn't realize you were a 12 year old girl. Peace."

And then:

This morning, Lemon went on CNN to clear things up by saying that Hill did shake his hand, but nevertheless treated him like "the help."
