Taylor Swift Films Lena Dunham Dancing To Her Eponymous Song By The Hand Job Academy [WATCH]

Being famous means you're fair game for cultural references in music, especially in hip-hop songs. Lena Dunham is the latest victim of the name game with the all-girl Brooklyn rap trio Hand Job Academy titling a song after her. Instead of getting upset, the GIRLS creator took a page out of her good buddy Taylor Swift's book and decided to just "Shake It Off." Swift recorded Dunham dancing to the track and posted it to Instagram.

"This was what happened when Lena and I found out that there is a rap song called 'Lena Dunham,'" Swift captioned the video.

The song isn't actually about the Dunham, though they do reference her notorious nudity on the line "finna let it all hang out, Lena Dunham." In the NSFW video for the song, they parody the text from Dunham's book cover for her biography Not That Kind Of Girl, switching out "a young women tell you want she's 'learned'" for "a bad b*tch tells you what she's 'learned." The group apparently raised more than $5,000 on Kickstarter to make the video. Something about these women and this video makes us think that Dunham would approve.

Swift and Dunham's unexpected friendship has been making headlines recently. Swift's new song "Out of the Woods" was penned with Duhman's boyfriend Jack Antonoff, and Swift told The Guardian that Dunham was responsible for helping her find her stance on feminism.

"As a teenager, I didn't understand that saying you're a feminist is just saying that you hope women and men will have equal rights and equal opportunities. What it seemed to me, the way it was phrased in culture, society, was that you hate men," Swift admitted to them. "Becoming friends with Lena - without her preaching to me, but just seeing why she believes what she believes, why she says what she says, why she stands for what she stands for - has made me realize that I've been taking a feminist stance without actually saying so."
