Zoe Kravitz Behind the Scenes for Cover of ‘ELLE’ South Africa

Zoe Kravitz on the cover of September's issue ELLE South Africa

We are elated to be seeing more of Zoe Kravitz in movies, magazines, and recent special appearances with her ubercool parents. For September’s issue of ELLE South Africa, the 22- year-old actress, singer, songwriter and model graced the cover in a mixed denim fit, sky-high studded, Jimmy Choo heels and her quirky attitude to top it off.

Styled by ELLE‘s senior fashion editor, Poppy Evans, the vibe set for the shoot was laid-back chic, soft and natural. Take a look at Kravitz’s cover, some behind-the-scenes shots, and excerpts from her interview with ELLE. –mckenzie harris

Hometown: Brooklyn, N.Y.

Parents: Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet

Style icons? Sarah Jessica Parker and Daniel Day-Lewis

Biggest fashion mistake? “Oh man, I make them every day, I have so many. I look back on some of my outfits and I’m like: ‘Why did I wear that? Where are my friends and why didn’t they tell me not to leave the house?’ If they had, I probably would’ve said, ‘You don’t know what you’re talking about. This looks amazing.’ ”

Favourite shopping haunts? “The Sunday flea market in New York, the Rose Bowl Market in L.A., the Santa Monica Flea Market and Portobello Market in London.”

Musical inspiration: “Tom Waits, Jack White and Alison Mosshart, the singer from The Kills and Dead Weather. Growing up, I listened to a lot of the classics: The Beatles, [Led] Zeppelin, Nina Simone, Richie Havens, Al Green, Otis Redding, Sly and The Family Stone and Neil Young.”

Music or acting? “I can’t answer your question. I’d rather kill myself.”

Oscar or Grammy? “Oscar — because of the ceremony not because I think acting is more important.”

Childhood crush? “Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Heath Ledger.”

Who gets you onto the dance floor? “Michael Jackson and James Brown.”

How do you unwind? “I have a backyard, which is hard to find in New York, and hang out at home a lot with my friends, barbecuing, listening to records, making avocado sandwiches, staying up really late, drinking a lot of coffee.”

Worst household chore? “Making my bed.”

Your greatest fear? “Dying in a plane crash.”

A man’s sexiest features and who has them? “Arms and a really flat stomach. Brad Pitt.”

Favorite quality in a man? “Sense of humor.”

When do you permit yourself to lie? “Usually to get out of interviews.”

    Everything is a-twitter on the celeb front. Some of us have our favorites. We just are not able to help it. Sometimes, we dare inform everyone possibly. These are the kinds we stalk out of habit or boredom. Some of us stay up to date on our preferred actor’s tweets due to the fact it seems good in casual conversation. “OMG, did you listen to?? Brit is in the hospital yet again! Just the other day, Jamie Lynn and I had been tweeting and…” Other people follow Celebs due to the fact they love to detest them. “Tiger Woods is so sleazy, I remember one particular day on twitter, he was acting so into me when he thanked me for the FF” Some people are just nosey. If I Tweet Barack Obama enough my resolution to the wellness care bill, he’ll response me. Or block me.
