Former ‘Girls’ Co-Stars Allison Williams and Ebon Moss-Bachrach Reveal Some of Their Cringey Songs Were Kelly Clarkson ‘Discards’

Former 'Girls' Co-Stars Allison Williams and Ebon Moss-Bachrach say that some of their cringey duets were Kelly Clarkson 'discards' from Jack Antonoff.

But in a new video for Vanity Fair in which former Girls co-stars Allison Williams ( M3GAN) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach ( The Bear) reunite after seven years to revisit the show that helped launch both of them to stardom, the pair also reveal that some of the mega-cringey songs they crooned together as their characters, Marnie and Desi, were actually written by Antonoff. The volatile on-screen couple often played music together onscreen as they struggled through a tumultuous courtship and brief marriage, with Moss-Bachrach telling VF that he just recently learned that most of their duets were “just discards from Kelly Clarkson.” Speaking of mortifying, Williams brought up the absolute peak Marnie moment when her character sang a cover of Kanye West’s “Stronger” as a torch ballad at a party to the stunned mortification of the entire room, including her friends.
