I made a lot of mistakes when it came to this show. Mistakes I can still feel. And I wish I knew then what I know now. We were young and didn’t know what we had on our hands. But thanks everyone involved! I’ve written 4 shows since then so if you’re an investor holla at me. pic.twitter.com/u3edwCbOm4

And I have 2 short films and three 125 page feature films. I have content for days — I’m upset but I’m not worried (I’m a little worried haha) but my day is going to come.

Even the way her show is colored is oddly similar, I have to laugh. Ours was fun as hell though cuz it was about the great drunk girls you meet the girls restroom. And it extended out to their lives and how tough and rewarding navigating through life in your 20s can be. pic.twitter.com/jW6WmTTjqf

Dove has responded to the comparisons in an official statement to Where Is the Buzz. “Dove started working on Girls Room with our partners in early 2017, and we’re proud to have teamed up with ATTN: and Lena Waithe to bring the vision to life. The name of the series was developed before Lena or ATTN: were added to the project and was selected because our scenes mainly take place in the “Girls Room,” any similarity to other creative projects is entirely unintentional.” And responded to us directly on Twitter.???? this is the last thing I post on this, I just always loved this photo. pic.twitter.com/BCMThxK2ax

We reached out to Nina Lee for her response to their statement. “They’ve been reaching out to several people but have not reached out to me. We began our promo in 2017, the year they also claim working on there’s. It’s all very fishy, but I haven’t personally accused Dove or Lena Waithe of stealing. That’s an observation others have made and I appreciate them coming to my defense. I am a little disappointed no one has contacted me, even if it was all “coincidental”. I’m not looking for a quick claim to fame. I’m just a very talented independent filmmaker who wants to protect my ideas and have the funding and platform to release them. It’s sacred to me but it’s something the world deserves to see.” Lena Waithe’s, Girls Room anthology-style series will debut on Wednesday, February 26th. We reached out to Lena Waithe’s camp and we have not had a response.It’s important to us to provide clarity here. We started work on Girls Room in 2017 and named it before Lena and ATTN: were added to the project. The name was selected because our scenes take place in a “Girls Room,” any similarity to other projects is entirely unintentional.
