Zoe Kravitz says being an ‘it girl’ makes her feel uncomfortable

2nd June 2011 11:02 am

She’s the stylish offspring of super-cool parents Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, but with her new role in X-Men: First Class, Zoe Kravitz is about to be as famous for her acting as she is her wardrobe.

In the latest Rock ‘N’ Roll Life of an Everyday Girl issue of ASOS magazine, Zoe stars as the mag’s exclusive cover girl, and reveals what it’s like to be an ‘it girl’.

“All that ‘it girl’ shit makes me kind of uncomfortable. I’m only at the beginning of my career, but I feel successful in that I haven’t sold out in any way, shape or form,” says Zoe.

“I feel good about the choices I’ve made, and I don’t feel like I’ve let go of any of my values. Fame has become this obsession for people, which kind of creeps me out.”

But it seems fame does have it’s plus points – she had a pretty good time off-set filming her latest X-Men role, after all.

“We (Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and boyfriend Michael Fassbender) were living in London for four months and it was like X-Men summer camp, so we all hung out at each other’s houses after filming, went out to pubs… I lived in Notting Hill, right by Portobello… I’m spending all my money on flea-market shopping!” she says.

And, it would appear she’s finally grown to except her parents’ exceptional fashion sense.

“I used to be a little embarrassed by how she [mum Lisa Bonet] and my dad [Lenny Kravitz] would dress… but now I steal their clothes all the time.”
