As Dunham was chatting with Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet before the show, Danes creepily snuck up from behind and hijacked the interview on live television.

What was most revealing about the E! interview is that the two are actually BFF.

"I'm really excited because you're my really good friend and I never get to see you," Dunham gushed to Danes.

Danes responded by telling viewers, "I love this lady very much,"to which Dunham retaliated, "I love you so much."

Turns out both actresses grew up in the same New York City neighborhood and met through a mutual friend after Dunahm "stalked her."

The rest of the lovefest went like this:

Danes: "I'm in constant awe of what she does."

Dunham: "She's my favorite actress."

Dunham: "We'll wait unitl there's a less turf-warrish situation."

"Are we ruining your life?" Dunham eventually asked Seacrest, who said, "No, this is fantastic. I'm great, I'm gonna have a beer."
