Lena Dunham: ‘I can’t just laugh off a porn parody of ‘Girls”

A porn parody of HBO’s comedy “Girls” has emerged — and the show’s creator, Lena Dunham, is none too pleased.

According to porn industry news magazine Xbiz, Hustler’s “This Ain’t Girls XXX” parodies the “Girls” characters Adam and Hannah, played by Dunham in the HBO show.

In the parody, Hannah, played by Alex Chance, decides to experiment with lesbianism but later returns to her boyfriend, Adam.

Richie Calhoun, who plays Adam in the parody, tells Xbiz that the script is “provocative” and “very well written.” Because of the explicit nature of the show, Calhoun says they “didn’t have to do much” but rely on the original script and simply expand on the intercourse scenes.

In a series of tweets published Thursday, Dunham said she wished she “had a better attitude” about the parody and explained her objections were based on the feminist nature of her show.

Xbiz reports the parody just wrapped production, and is slated for release in a few months.
