Girls creator and star Lena Dunham has said she connects with Taylor Swift's songs saying "she sings my story" and added that she always knew the pair would be friends if their paths crossed.
Speaking on BBC Radio 6 Music Dunham said she listens to Swift's new album 1989 "every day, all day" adding, "I've been obsessed with Taylor Swift since her first song."
She continued, "Teardrops on My Guitar was the first one I became familiar with, but I think she's been a fully-formed creative voice since she was 15 and really does sing my story.
"I've loved her from the beginning and I would always tell all my friends that I really think if Taylor Swift and I met we would be really good friends, we're both mining our personal lives. I used to tell my friends, 'Oh if we met...' and they'd be like, 'Shut up. You and Taylor Swift don't have anything in common, she does not care what you have to say'.
"Lo and behold we met and we're really good friends! So, I was not lying. But I did insidiously worm my way into her life."
On 1989 in particular she commented, "This new one 1989 - I'm not just saying this because my boyfriend [Jack Antonoff] worked on it, I think it's her best, most fully formed, most complex work yet. It's full of fascinating subliminal messages and it's really fierce and funny and sexy and I can't get enough of it."
