Lenny Kravitz Debuts NSFW ‘The Pleasure and the Pain’ — Who’s The Girl In Black And White Video? [Video]
Lenny Kravitz has been beloved by his fans ever since he was known as “Romeo Blue” and hanging out with Lisa Bonet. On Thursday, June 25, it was Kravitz’s NSFW “The Pleasure and the Pain” video that got the online world buzzing, as reported by the Rolling Stone. In the video called “The Pleasure and the Pain,” Kravitz can be seen feeling on the face of a woman as the tone of an unanswered phone rings. Then, the bare-breasted woman is shown floating on her back in a body of water, surely getting attention for the song off of Kravitz’s Strut album from 2014. Previously, only lyric videos existed for “The Pleasure and the Pain,” but the day the visual video dropped, the world stood up and took notice.
“I think this time we can make it through. I’ll still be me, and let you be you. I’ll take all you offer..”
“The Pleasure and the Pain” video shows a tumultuous relationship between Kravitz and the young woman — the sweet bird of youth that waits by the phone after arguing with Lenny as he visits a gas station. She also appears largely half-clothed throughout the video. In one scene, a prominent tattoo of Roxie Roxer — Kravitz’s mother from The Jeffersons fame — can be seen on his forearm. But back to the girl who is a central star of “The Pleasure and the Pain” video. Searches for “The Pleasure and the Pain” video actress turn up nil on sites like IMDB, nor does Vevo or Rolling Stone have any information about her as yet — and they are hearing that fact from a commentator.
“Nice of them to give credit to the girl, who bares all for the video and is the star. Who is she anyway?”
Whomever the actress is in “The Pleasure and the Pain” video, she appears young and, at the same time, a natural in terms of chemistry with Lenny, as if she could be Kravitz’s real-life girlfriend. Information about the 51-year-old Lenny’s love life proves that he’s still on great terms with ex-wife Bonet, as reported by the Daily Mail. The duo share daughter Zoe, who is an amazing actress in her own right.
Director Dikayl Rimmasch helmed “The Pleasure and the Pain” video, which featured plenty of concert footage clips of Kravitz turning his United States tour. As reported by the Inquisitr, Kravitz’s daughter, Zoe, has spoken out to the press on how she recovered from her scary state as an anorexic woman in part due to her parents’ help and concern over her condition.
As for “The Pleasure and the Pain” video, hopefully the makers of the video that took nearly two weeks to produce will end up giving credit to the main actress by Lenny’s side.
