Zoe Kravitz had some beautiful, and sometimes biting, words for her “cool dad” Lenny Kravitz as the rocker received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Toward the beginning of her tribute to her father, the 35-year-old actress said “being your daughter has been one of the great adventures of my life”.

She then explained that since her father was relatively young when she was born, “in many ways, we’ve grown up together”.
Lenny Kravitz was 24 years old when he welcomed daughter Zoe with his ex-wife Lisa Bonet.
“We’ve been through a lot,” Zoe said.
“We’ve seen a lot. I’ve seen a lot.
“I’ve seen you change in the most beautiful ways, I’ve seen the way you’ve stayed the same in the most important ways.”
From there, her remarks took on a more humorous tone.
“I’ve seen the way you show up, and take care of the people you love – I’ve seen your incredible dedication to your art, but mostly, I’ve seen through your shirts,” she said, to laughs among the assembled guests.
“According to my dad, if it doesn’t expose your nipples, it’s not a shirt.”
Zoe admitted that she’d sometimes get embarrassed when her dad would pick her up from school — presumably decked out in said type of shirt — “but I gotta say, at this point, I respect it.”
“You really do pull it off. Your relationship with the knitted shirt is probably your longest one, and it works,” she said, while her dad guffawed loudly.
The Are You Gonna Go My Way singer’s only child then said that all her life, when people ask her what it’s like to have “such a cool dad,” she answers, “awesome.”
“But not for the reasons some might think,” she explained.
“What’s cool about you is not what people think is cool about you.
“Your radness doesn’t come from your shades or your leather pants or knitted shirts.
“It comes from your true love for life.”
Lenny Kravitz is a four-time Grammy winner, with hits including American Woman and Fly Away, among others.
The New York City-born singer-songwriter, 59, is well known for his rocker-cool style, perennial shade-wearing and smooth vocals.
This spring, he is slated to release his twelfth studio album, titled Blue Electric Light.
“Your music, your lyrics, your live performances, your homes, your love of food, of family, of good conversations, stupid jokes, dance parties, late night kitchen talks – you absolutely devour life”, Zoe said at the Walk of Fame ceremony.
“You eat up every crumb and lick the plate.
“Life is your art and that is why your music is so inspiring and important.”
Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington also honoured Kravitz, calling the musician “more than a friend, he’s more than a brother.”
“We’re twins, we just don’t look alike,” Washington added.
“We’ve had a close brothership, friendship … for 30 years.
“God has blessed him with an unbelievable talent, but even more so, an unbelievable heart.”
After the ceremony, the elder Kravitz spoke with CNN about receiving the honour.
“That’s surreal and mind-blowing,” he said of receiving his star, later adding that he’s “so blessed to have these folks with me, that have walked this journey with me.”
