โ€œDo you have a significant other in your life? And can I beat her ass if she is?"

Speaking with the legendary musician ahead of the release of his 12th studio album โ€œBlue Electric Lightโ€ for CBS Mornings, King fulfilled her normal journalistic duties by inquiring about his record. But when the conversation turned more personal towards Kravitzโ€™s love life, the interview took a hilarious turn.

โ€œDo you have a significant other in your life? And can I beat her ass if she is? Oops, did I say that out loud?โ€ King said, prompting shock and laughter from Kravitz. โ€œAnd Iโ€™m non-violent, Lenny Kravitz! But do you have a partner? Do you have love in your life?โ€

Kravitzโ€™s response?

โ€œRight now, Iโ€™m just open. Itโ€™s hard not to look when you desire something, you know, youโ€™re looking for it. But I find that when you donโ€™t look is when you find it. And Iโ€™m at a place where โ€” Iโ€™ve said this for several years, โ€˜Iโ€™m ready, Iโ€™m ready, Iโ€™m ready.โ€™ I wasnโ€™t ready. I thought I was ready, right? But I can say that Iโ€™ve never felt how I feel now.โ€

Well, Lenny, I donโ€™t have to tell you that youโ€™ve clearly got an eligible bachelorette right in your orbit. And you know what, Iโ€™m not mad at you Gayle! Shoot your shot! Itโ€™s Gemini season and itโ€™s about to be summertime anyway; maybe thatโ€™s the energy we all need heading into these next few months.
