Lena Dunham is rapping for Hillary!
The Girls creator made a three-minute video for Funny or Die in which she raps about her love of Hilary Clinton, as a new alter ego MC Pantsuit.
Dunham told Vulture in an interview that the tongue-in-cheek vid is meant to be a parody of celebrity endorsement videos.
The funny lady said, “I’m like a crazed Hillary Clinton fan, and wondered what it would be like if I took this character one step further to the most delusional Hillary Clinton fan."
The 30-year-old said, “She’s MC Pantsuit and wears a sensual pantsuit. I liked the idea of a well-meaning, ridiculous white girl who thinks she’s helping the election by exposing her body and writing thoughtless rap music.†Sounds a lot like Dunham's talking about Dunham!
The video features the super awkward Dunham, wearing a fiery red pantsuit a la the first debate and rapping about her love of the Democratic presidential nominee and features Power 105.1’s Charlamagne tha God and Tony-winning star of The Color Purple, Cynthia Erivo.
There's been a lot of online criticism of the video -- but we kinda dig it!
