Lenny Kravitz had an electrifying performance on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, performing one of his old hits, “Are You Gonna Go My Way.” Yet it was also the guitarist for the singer that seemed to cause as much attention, with the look-alike being that of radio legend Howard Stern.
During the performance, the cameraman zoomed in on the guitarist and captured his curly dark brown hair and sunglasses. Fans immediately compared the look of the musician to Stern’s, causing an online frenzy with heated debates.
Lenny Kravitz signed up Howard Stern on guitar. Didn’t know he could play!” one fan quipped on X (formerly Twitter). Another chimed in, “Omg, we thought the same thing! Howard has been practicing guitar, so we thought, hmmmm.
Although the resemblance was striking, it was confirmed that the guitarist was not Howard Stern. Interestingly, Stern is a lifelong performer who began in his parodic group called The Losers, formed in the late 1990s, with experience sharing a marquee with heroes such as the Godfather of Soul, James Brown.
His performance in the set on Tuesday night included songs from Blue Electric Light released in May 2024. The album had an upbeat vibe, and the songs did well to greet the new year.
Social media chatter aside, the real praise for Kravitz’s performance was universal. “Lenny Kravitz is such an icon. Great to see him on Rockin’ Eve!,” one fan commented. Another wrote, “Still one of the sexiest men alive! Never gets old!”
Nights will be full of stars with performances from Carrie Underwood, Alanis Morissette, and the Jonas Brothers. Ryan Seacrest made the event lively and memorable and indeed a nice bash to herald in 2025.
In short, for one more instance, Lenny Kravitz demonstrated why, despite all the years gone by, he is considered a rock icon. Fans do not want more time to begin awaiting his new show.
