Lena Dunham, who won two Golden Globes on Sunday for her HBO comedy Girls, caught up with fawning members of the press after her victory… and probably after taking off those ridiculous high heels that made her wobble like a toddler.

During her acceptance speech, Dunham referred to her boyfriend, fun. guitarist Jack Antonoff, as "family." That prompted USA Today to question the actress about possible impending nuptials.
But Dunham shut down that speculation, and gave a damn fine reason for doing so.
"I'm not engaged," said Dunham. "I don't want to get married until all gay people can get married."
Rock on, Lena.
Dunham's boyfriend, Antonoff, is also on record as an ally, recording a video last year for the Human Rights Campaign's "Americans for Marriage Equality," and writing a heartfelt op-ed for Huffington Post about the importance of straight voices in the fight for LGBT equality.
fun., comprised of Antonoff and fellow straight bandmates Nate Reuss and Andrew Dost, have made it clear that they're allies for equality, too, launching The Ally Coalition and donating their time and talent to LGBT equality organizations.
