The story goes that rocker Lenny Kravitz once asked for Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Cynthia Bailey’s phone number. But he never used it.
Cynthia admitted she “didn’t really feel any sparks” when meeting the Grammy winner at Mick Jagger’s 80th birthday party. Nevertheless, “He asked Mick’s fiancée for my number.”
Sadly, he must have been too busy touring to hit her up. Cynthia told Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge on Two Ts in a Pod, “He didn’t use my damn number.”
Lenny Kravitz has always been one of Cynthia Bailey’s celebrity crushes
Cynthia told People she hoped Lenny never heard her talking about their missed connection. “I never expected it to go viral, basically,” she said. “And I really hope that Lenny Kravitz did not somehow hear about it or see it.”
Even though he lost her number, the RHOA Season 16 friend of the cast maintains he’s still “a lovely man.”
“I met him with Mick Jagger at Mick’s 80th in London,” she explained. “[Mick] introduced him to all of his friends.”
She added the multi-platinum recording artist has “always been a celebrity crush, but you never really meet your celebrity crushes. So I was excited to meet him.”
“Numbers were exchanged, but no calls were made,” she added. “And that’s okay because that’s a humble brag, you know what I’m saying?”
Cynthia’s moving on with life following her divorce from Mike Hill
In September 2023, Cynthia told People that she’d met someone she was romantically interested in. But at the time, she was just coming out of a two-year marriage to Fox Sports correspondent Mike Hill, so she planned to take things slow.
“It’s coming along all right, it’s coming along,” she teased. “There’s someone that I really like dating a lot, but we’re taking it slow. I’m still open to dating other people.”
Cynthia and Mike split in October 2022. She released a statement that read, “God does not make mistakes! I truly believe in my heart Mike coming into my life was destiny. I jumped in, both feet first, and gave it my all.”
“Although that journey has come to an end,” she went on, “I am so grateful for our continued friendship, and the beautiful memories that we made together. God willing, I will find love again. Whatever is destined to be, will be; and I could not be more excited for my next chapter!”
Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 16 is set to return in 2025 on Bravo.
