Monica Lewinsky has landed a new job: The infamous former White House intern is now contributing to VanityFair's website "on an ongoing basis", reported the New York Daily News.

On Thursday, Lewinsky posted her first article as VF's official online contributor titled, "The Online Rebuttal Is the New Black."

In the article, Lewinsky said that after once being a huge fan of the popular Netflix show, she no longer supports or watches "Orange Is the New Black."

At first, Lewinsky said that she was "always drawn into the episodes, almost magnetically."

"Lately I have found myself in a summer blanket on my old red sofa 'power watching' 'Orange Is the New Black.' While no one I know well has ever been to prison, the show's story lines are so riveting and the characters so emotionally nuanced that I am always drawn into the episodes, almost magnetically. And, like many other fans, I am transported into that cloistered world of raw emotions, human frailties, and power plays," Lewinsky said.

But while binge watching Season 1 of "OITNB," the 41-year-old came across Episode 11 that includes a vulgar Lewinsky sex scandal joke.

The Huffington Post reported the Lewinsky joke was uttered by Natasha Lyonne's character, Nicky who tells Daya that in order to prove that Pornstache had sex with her, she would have to "Lewinsky that sh*t" and "get somes plooge on your uniform."

Naturally, Lewinsky said that while watching the episode, she took offense to the joke and immediately stopped watching "Orange Is the New Black."

"Over a decade later (just the other day, in fact), I was Orange-bingeing, when along came Episode 11. (O.K., I'm a late adopter. Just getting through Season 1.) In it, there was a vulgar reference to my last name and DNA. I did what I usually do in these situations where the culture throws me a shard of my former self. After the cringing embarrassment, the whiff of shame, and the sense that I am no longer an agent running my own life, I shuddered, I got up off the sofa, and I turned it off."

She continued the article by noting the benefits of using the Internet and social media to hit back at various forms of media that continue to bully others, including herself, for their past mistakes.

"But more and more I'm finding that those who have lost command of their public narratives, do the opposite. They shake off the assault or the slight, take control of their rightful place in their community or the larger culture, and use social media to return the salvo. They refuse to have their identities swindled or misshapen. Instead, they take charge," she said.
