Donald Glover's joke at last night's WGA Awards about Lena Dunham using the N-word on the set of 'Girls' missed the mark. '[Dunham] goes, ‘Honestly, this n---- let’s me do whatever I want,’” Glover said.

Donald Glover made a joke at the Writers Guild of America Awards on Sunday about Lena Dunham using the N-word while they were filming, and it apparently landed with a thud. During his speech, Glover recounted a moment on set when he asked Dunham why she was willing to work with Paul Simms, a writer who was being presented with an award om Sunday. “[Dunham] goes, ‘Honestly, this n---- let’s me do whatever I want,’” Glover said.

“I remember thinking two things: One, Lena is using the N-word extremely liberal with me... And two, that’s the kind of producer I want.” The joke was met with confused laughter from the audience. A representative for Dunham later said: “Donald Glover told a joke referencing Lena Dunham for last night’s WGA Awards. It included, for effect, language Lena never used, nor would use.” Glover’s team also backed up the claim.
