Zoe Kravitz Spills the Tea

'I've heard bits of it,' the star shared during an interview with Extra on Monday, before adding, 'It's fantastic, of course. No skips'

During an interview with Extra's Tommy DiDario, Zoe Kravitz dished out some juicy details about Taylor's upcoming album. The 36-year-old actress, who has been close pals with Swift for years, revealed that she's already heard bits of the new music and was impressed by its quality.

"I've heard bits of it," Kravitz shared, "It's fantastic, of course. No skips." When asked to elaborate on what she meant by 'no skips', the star explained, "For her, it's not." This cryptic comment has left fans speculating about the album's tracklist and production.

A Bathroom Disaster

'No skips? That's rare!' the interviewer said, to which the Hollywood actress responded, 'For her, it's not'; Taylor seen in 2024 in New Orleans

But that's not all - Kravitz also shared a hilarious story about how Taylor Swift came to her rescue during the devastating L.A. fires in January. The actress recalled staying at Swift's historic $25 million Beverly Hills mansion with her mom, Lisa Bonet, and their pet snake, Orpheus.

"We ended up having to stay there for about two weeks," Kravitz explained, "And Taylor has this beautiful house. It's from the '30s, something you want to preserve and take care of." However, things took a turn when Kravitz discovered her mom trapped in the bathroom with Orpheus.

"I went upstairs and found my mom crouched in the corner," Kravitz recalled, "And I'm like, 'What's going on, dude?' And she's like, 'So I was washing my face and I had Orpheus...'" The snake managed to squeeze itself into a tiny hole in the wall, leaving Kravitz and her mom panicked.

"We ripped up the tile. We scratched the walls," Kravitz continued, "I mean it's just like... we completely destroyed Taylor's bathroom." Swift was already aware of the situation when Kravitz called to confess, saying "Is it the fact that you almost lost a snake in my house and destroyed my bathroom?"

But what about the album itself? Well, fans got a glimpse into Taylor's new era last week on her boyfriend Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast. She unveiled the cover art for The Life Of A Showgirl, featuring herself partially immersed in water while donning a bedazzled bodysuit.

Zoe continued, 'I mean, I'm not surprised, because Taylor is scary talented at everything she does, so it's not surprising that she's so good'; seen in February in L.A.

"I loved what they did with those photos, so I called them up for this album," Swift explained, "I am so happy with the way the photos came out with this one." The singer gushed about her new record, stating it's "a full send. I care about this record more than I can even overstate."

Collaborations and Production

Interestingly, Taylor opted to work with producers Max Martin and Shellback on The Life Of A Showgirl, instead of collaborating with her previous partner Jack Antonoff. The album features 12 tracks, including the titular single "Life Of A Showgirl" featuring Sabrina Carpenter.
