Ice T sparked an online controversy after labelling Lenny Kravitz a “weirdo” following Kravitz’s revelation of a nine-year celibacy stint post-marriage.
Lenny Kravitz recently made headlines with his declaration of nine years of celibacy, seeking deeper connections beyond physical relationships. This confession drew mixed reactions from the music community, including a candid response from rapper Ice T.
Upon learning of Kravitz’s lifestyle choice, Ice T took to X (formerly Twitter), expressing his disbelief: “9 years without Sex? F that BS. Weirdo s-t.” He further ridiculed Kravitz’s journey, commenting, “F that Journey…. lol.”
Ice T, known for his outspoken nature, shared his contrasting views on celibacy. “Hey….. If you’re a Guy and you can voluntarily go 9 years without sex… You’re following the wrong page..” He added, “S-t’s Weird to me….. I love to F-k. A lot,” addressing his over 2 million followers.
Kravitz, who was married to actress Lisa Bonet from 1987 to 1993, cited his father, Sy Kravitz’s infidelity as a pivotal influence on his views on relationships. Kravitz reflected on his past behaviours: “After the marriage, I became more like him. I was becoming a player. I didn’t like it. I didn’t want to be that guy. So I had to tackle that, and it took years.”
He explained his move towards celibacy began in 2008 with a personal commitment to seek more than just physical attraction in relationships. “Where I’m at in life, the women have got to come with something else, not just the body, but the mind and spirit,” Kravitz shared.
Kravitz’s journey reflects his commitment to personal growth and integrity. He sets boundaries that prioritize mental and spiritual connections.
