Glee, The 40-Year-Old Virgin and Wreck-It Ralph star Jane Lynch might be known as the outgoing funny woman on the slew of television shows and films we've seen her in but the Hollywood Game Night host admits that she's a sufferer of social anxiety disorder. She also confesses that on top of that, she has only two friends.

In a recent interview with HuffPost Live, Lynch was asked to tell the viewers something about her that would surprise her fans. She responded: "I have social anxiety and I have, really, just two friends."

Lynch goes on to compare herself to Jay Gatsby. "I like to throw the party and then stand back, looking gorgeous," she says.

Take a look at Lynch admitting her social anxiety below:

On the topic of friends, Lynch admits that she has many who are considered second-tier, but she really hangs out with just a couple of people. And, of course, her dogs.
