Jack Antonoff met Lena Dunham on a blind date
fun. rocker Jack Antonoff met his now-girlfriend Lena Dunham on a blind date set up by their mutual friend, comedian Mike Birbiglia.
The guitarist reveals he didn't know much about Girls creator and star Dunham before the 2012 date, so he made sure he did a little research before going out with her.
He tells New York magazine, "It was a blind date by modern
standards. I mean, I used the Internet (to find out more about
her)."
Antonoff, who dated Hollywood beauty Scarlett Johansson in high
school, needn't have worried - the pair hit it off straight
away.
He explains, "I told Lena everything about my whole life, because
when you really like someone, you want them to know everything
about you."
The couple is now looking towards the future and Antonoff reveals
he is eager to settle down and start a family.
The 30 year old says, "It just seems like the most fun thing in the
world. I've never met people who have kids who haven't looked me in
the eye and been like, 'It's the greatest thing that's ever
happened.'
"I'm not, like, 24 or 22. I'm no longer in the phase of my life
where I talk about everything as in the future. Like, I'm in the
future."
However, the musician admits he and Dunham are so busy, they may
have to wait a while: "It's hard to imagine when the right time is
because things are so crazy at the moment."
