The musician Lenny Kravitz received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.

Actor Denzel Washington and Kravitz's daughter Zoë performed in his honor.

In her speech, the 35-year-old praised her father's dedication to music.

At the same time, even as a young father, he was always there for his daughter.

However, the actress couldn't help but mock her father a little too.

»I have seen you change in the most beautiful ways.

I saw how you always stayed the same when it came to important things.

But mostly I saw through your shirts,” Kravitz joked.

According to her father, a shirt is only a shirt if you can see your nipples through it.

As a child, she was embarrassed by her scantily clad father - but now she respects his style.

»Your relationship with the fishnet shirt is probably your longest.

And it works,” said Zoë Kravitz, receiving applause from the audience and her father.

All her life, people have asked her what it was like to have such a cool father.

“Fantastic,” says Zoë Kravitz.

But that's not because of the leather pants, fishnet shirts or sunglasses that the singer is famous for.

Rather, from his love for life.

»Everything you do is an expression of your love for life.

Your music, your lyrics, your performances, your home, your love for food, for family, for good entertainment and bad jokes and parties.

You devour life.

And life is your art form," says the 35-year-old.

Kravitz received the 2,774th star on the Walk of Fame.

Hollywood star Denzel Washington also gave a speech at the unveiling.

For him, Kravitz is more than a friend or brother.

"We're twins, we just don't look alike," Washington joked.

“God gave him an incredible talent but above all an incredible heart,” Washington continued.

Lenny Kravitz was born in New York in 1964.

He married the actress Lisa Bonet and they are the parents of Zoë Kravitz.

However, the marriage has now ended in divorce.

The daughter grew up with her father.

Kravitz plays multiple instruments and has sold several million records worldwide.
