“Girls” star Lena Dunham is slated to throw her weight behind Hillary Clinton in a speech next week’s Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

The polarizing 30-year-old actress has long supported the presumptive Democratic nominee, serving as something of a millennial liaison for Mrs. Clinton.

She interviewed the former secretary of state on her Lenny Letter newsletter, asking Mrs. Clinton, among other things, about her plan to ameliorate student loan debt and whether she considers herself a feminist.

Ms. Dunham recently said serving sushi at college dining halls was a form of “cultural appropriation.”

Other celebrities set to address the convention include Demi Lovato, Eva Longoria and America Ferrera.
