Lenny Kravitz Reveals Decade-Long Celibacy: ‘It’s a Spiritual Thing’

A renowned rock star, Lenny Kravitz, recently revealed a surprising aspect of his life.

At 60, Kravitz shared that he has embraced celibacy for over a decade, describing it as “a spiritual thing.”

This revelation contrasts sharply with his earlier image.

Known for his dynamic relationships and charismatic presence, Kravitz's commitment to celibacy underscores a profound personal transformation.

In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, Kravitz confirmed his celibate lifestyle.

“Yes, it’s a spiritual thing,” he said, reflecting on the depth of his commitment.

Kravitz admits he would love to be in a relationship but fears he might struggle due to his established ways.

“I have become very set in my ways, in how I live,” he noted.

Throughout his life, Kravitz has been linked to high-profile relationships.

He was married to actress Lisa Bonet, with whom he has a daughter, Zoë Kravitz.

Post-divorce, he was romantically involved with celebrities like Vanessa Paradis, Adriana Lima, and Nicole Kidman.

His shift towards celibacy aligns with his pursuit of meaning and spiritual engagement.

In an interview with The Telegraph, he emphasized his commitment to living a Christ-like life.

Similarly, in a 2008 CBS “Sunday Morning” interview, he believed celibacy would help him find the right person.

“That’s a promise I made to God three years ago,” he stated.

Kravitz’s introspection extends to his fame and career.

He told The Guardian he never considered himself “gorgeous,” instead focusing on self-acceptance.

Despite acknowledging the transient nature of celebrity, Kravitz's music continues to reflect his deeper spiritual and personal insights.

His songs “The Other Side” and “I Don’t Want to Be a Star” explore these themes profoundly.

Physically, Kravitz’s discipline is evident.

At 60, his physique results from rigorous self-care and discipline, including late-night gym sessions and a clean diet.

He believes in aligning body, mind, and spirit and emphasizes that all elements must work together for his well-being.

Despite his tranquil lifestyle choices, Kravitz remains a powerful force in the music industry.

His latest album, Blue Electric Light, showcases his enduring talent and eclectic musical style, drawing comparisons to legends like Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd.
