A 2014 Vulture report sketched out how Taylor Swift and Lena Dunham’s friendship moved from Twitter(now rebranded as X) exchanges to something far more grounded. Their earliest link stretched back to 2006, when Swift released her debut album. By the time Lena Dunham’s Tiny Furniture premiered at SXSW in 2010, Swift’s music had already slipped into Dunham’s creative world. As she told ET,“Long before she was my friend, she was my friend in my head… she’s definitely a soundtrack to many of my feelings.”In August 2011, Lena Dunham attended a Swift concert with Maude Apatow and live-tweeted the night, posting, “Swift starts strong with a confident, strutty Sparks Fly…” and “‘Hi’ (blush) ‘I’m Taylor.’ uh WE KNOW.”She later joked to The New York Times,“The only difference between Maude and me… is that it would have been legal for me to buy a margarita. Obviously, I chose to eat a Wetzel’s pretzel, though.”Girls premiered in April 2012. Months later, Dunham tweeted again about Swift’s music. Swift told Rolling Stone she followed her after watching the show and received a DM almost instantly:“I am so excited about the prospect of being friends with you…”Recently, Lena Dunham resurfaced in headlines after sharing an inside look at the Chiefs suite while attending a game with Swift.Lena Dunham reveals what it was like watching the Chiefs play beside Taylor Swift:67th Annual GRAMMY Awards - Arrivals - Source: GettyLena Dunham gave both football fans and Swifties something to pore over when she shared a peek inside the private suite where she had watched the Kansas City Chiefs play beside Taylor Swift.On Monday, December 8, the Girls creator posted a carousel of photos from Arrowhead Stadium, taken during the Chiefs’ Sunday Night Football game against the Houston Texans. The images showed Dunham dressed head to toe in Chiefs gear, often alongside her producing partner Michael P. Cohen, who also leaned fully into the team colors for the night.In her caption, Dunham wrote,“My first home team (I happen to be a New Yorker who lives in London who roots for Kansas City, so sue me) and my first home game with my forever home boy @michaelpcohen. If you see me in a new piece of Chiefs merch every day for the next 17 months blame @handler.official and keep moving.”Dunham wasn’t the only familiar face in the suite. Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and Leonardo DiCaprio were also spotted cheering on Swift’s fiancé, Travis Kelce, though the night ended with a tough 20–10 loss to the Texans. She kept the humor going in her post, adding,“She’s in her sports era — people have questions (and by people I mean my parents, who spent my childhood having to ask me to do light laps of the apartment during the summers so I didn’t get bed sores!”She also mentioned her flight home, saying,“And a guy on the plane home is reading some Alan Watts, always a good sign.”Before signing off, Dunham directed a final nod to Kelce, closing with,“Love you @killatrav.”From Girls to now: Lena Dunham reconsiders fame, timing, and her relentless drive to work"Catherine Called Birdy" UK Premiere - Arrivals - Source: GettyThe Talks had sat down with Lena Dunham, and the conversation drifted into her long-standing obsession with work, something she had jokingly referred to as being a “recovering workaholic.” When asked how that recovery was unfolding, Dunham laughed at the idea that she’d fully stepped away from her old patterns.“It’s funny, I think I may still be active! I think calling myself ‘recovering’ was maybe just a little bit of a hopeful fit,” she admitted.She explained that work had never been just work to her.“I love work, it's how I process experiences, it’s how I express myself. I come from a family of artists, and expressing yourself is sort of like the highest value in my family. Some families focus on sports, or some families focus on religion; for our family, it’s art and the way that art makes people see each other and come together.”\When the interviewer asked whether she ever wished Girls had come later in her life, Dunham acknowledged both sides.“You know, I think that life prepares us for big changes and big swings, yes, I was young, I was 23 when I made Tiny Furniture, and I was 24 when I shot the pilot for Girls, and I wasn't particularly mature!”But she said timing didn’t make anyone immune to the pressure.“I’ve talked to people who have their first big public experience in their forties, and they're equally overwhelmed.”Over time, her thinking shifted.“So I think for a long time, I did wish that, but now I'm realizing it's complicated for anyone, whenever it comes. Because as artists, we might dream that people will see things and understand them, but then a certain kind of cultural conversation might come along with it that we aren't totally ready for.”
