The ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ star tells PEOPLE that the Grammy winner has “always been a celebrity crush”
Cynthia Bailey is hoping Lenny Kravitz is still in the dark when it comes to the viral story about their missed connection.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star, 57, previously revealed that the Grammy winner, 60, did not call her after obtaining her phone number.
Bailey noted that she “didn’t really feel any sparks” with the musician but he still asked for her number at Mick Jagger’s star-studded 80th birthday party last July in London.
“He asked Mick’s fiancée for my number,” Bailey recalled during the live taping of Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge’s Two Ts in a Pod podcast earlier this month. However, she revealed the rocker never followed up, adding, “He didn’t use my damn number.”
Bailey, 57, told PEOPLE at the 1st Annual Gurus Awards at SLS Hotel in Los Angeles on Nov. 10 that she hopes Kravitz, 60, never found out about her public confession.
When asked if heard about her viral story, she responded, “I hope not. I never expected it to go viral, basically. And I really hope that Lenny Kravitz did not somehow hear about it or see it.”
The reality star went on to praise the “Fly Away” singer as “a lovely man.”
“I met him with Mick Jagger at Mick’s 80th in London,” she continued. “He introduced him to all of his friends.”
