Here’s a radical idea for 2019: replace every single talk show host on network television with Andy Cohen, a man who is so good at interviewing celebrities that it makes me want to be a better person overall. There’s nothing revolutionary, really, in this brief little snippet of a chat with Lenny Kravitz, but I still feel it deserves your attention—because Cohen is so good at his job and also because Kravitz is aging like a particularly toothsome cave-aged fromage—a lil’ funky, well-rounded, and nice with a lusty Malbec.
Those who have been following Kravitz’s life and times closely or even those who have read a gossip website at some point in their lives know that he dated Nicole Kidman. Kidman was on that show Big Little Lies with Kravitz’s daughter, Zoe. A coincidence. Kismet. Fate.
“Zoë hadn’t seen Nicole since she was younger, and so it was beautiful that they got to know each other as adults and make this great show together,” Lenny said. On the breakup: “Some things just don’t work,” but the “wonderful thing is that we’re all friends.”
