It’s almost criminal to write about this woman, Zoe Kravitz, as sexy. How is it that the same little girl for whom Lenny Kravitz wrote “Flowers for Zoe” is a standing-on-the-verge-of-getting-it-on actor-musician? She’s done 8 movies and a bunch of TV? Repping Vera Wang and Alexander Wang? She’s almost 23?!? What is going on?
Don’t get it twisted, I see the beauty, the smolder. She’s all cheekbones and sass, some crazy combination of two of the more beautiful people on the planet. I mean, how do you have Lisa Bonet (an all-time TV crush) and Lenny Kravitz as parents and not be eye-catching? (side note: now in 1988, who’d have thought Lenny would have the wildly more successful career, and I bought “Let Love Rule” on cassette!) Petite, almost feline in her inscrutability and remove, every picture, every frame from a movie says “Seriously, this isn’t for you.” With two movies coming out soon—“X-Men: First Class” and “Yelling to the Sky” you’ll get to see it first hand.
Then there’s the band, Elevator Fight. She has a surprisingly husky singing voice. Not like Tracy Chapman, but with gravitas that can’t come from age. She’s a little rock-n-roll, somewhere between Patti Smythe, Kate Bush, and Joni Mitchell. Zoe has that big-city kid cool with the pedigree to match. As a hobby, it’s not a bad side line to choose.
Seriously? Zoe? Damn. . . .
