Los Angeles Makes ‘Girls’ Star Lena Dunham Very Depressed


Working in Los Angeles makes Lena Dunham pine for the streets of New York City.

The Girls star recently sat down for a chat with the folks at Vogue magazine. During her conversation with the publication, Dunham said that spending so much time in Los Angeles is slowly but surely taking its toll on her.

According to Dunham, she makes the trek to Los Angeles every fall to discuss Girls with executive producers Judd Apatow and Jenni Konner. She also gives the editing department a hand with putting the series together. Although she doesn’t mind the trip in short spurts, it’s clear that the writer and actress will always have a soft spot for New York.

“I like Los Angeles, but more than two weeks and I start to get a very sad feeling. You eat well there, and you take hikes, and my dog loves it, but ultimately it’s not the right place for me,” Dunham explained during the interview.

She added, “I went early on to a party at a really famous person’s house. They had a private chef there making pizza, and I remember the dog was wearing a bow tie. Every time I looked around, it would be like, Is that someone I know from camp? No, that’s Ashton Kutcher.”

Lena Dunham also said that she currently has absolutely no plans to move to Los Angeles at any point in the foreseeable future. If she decides to shift her existence to the west coast, then friends and family should seriously worry about her mental well-being.

“I don’t feel at home here, and no matter how long this is my job, I will never feel at home here,” the Girls mastermind explained.

In addition to discussing her problems with Los Angeles, Dunham also dished on her love life. The actress insists that her current experiences with romance aren’t nearly as dramatic as those found on her hit HBO series.

“I’d been like, If I never date again in my whole life, I’ll be fine with it! I want to work and rescue rabbits and be a notable eccentric. I had a whole romantic idea about singledom, and then, of course, that’s the moment when you meet someone that you really care about,” Dunham recently told the magazine.
