Rachel Bloom Had the Best Response When Neil Patrick Harris Pulled an 'I Don’t Know Her' During the Tonys

Last night, while watching the Tonys with his family, Neil Patrick Harris took to Twitter to make fun of the woman who was hosting the backstage portion of the show for CBS. “Who is the woman in the top hat backstage at @TheTonyAwards?” he asked his followers before quoting his 7-year-old son Gideon. “Gideon remarked that she says ‘like’ and ‘oh my god’ a lot. I’m confused…”

What Harris didn’t know was…everything–and the woman he was making fun of, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend star/creator and friend of Jezebel Rachel Bloom, quickly fired back.

After being rightfully shamed for pulling a “this woman says ‘like’ too much” (I’m only half-convinced that Gideon actually said that, and fully convinced that if he did, it’s because Harris taught him that people who do so are stupid), Doogie responded with this cowering (and condescending) non-apology:

Bloom left him hanging. An expert move.
