Lisa Bonet was the woman who had it all. First, she was a teen sitcom actress and Hollywood star. Then, when she was 20, she married rock god Lenny Kravitz and had a daughter, Zoë.
Years after divorcing America’s most handsome musician, she got together with America’s hunkiest actor, Jason Momoa. Today, we’ll hear everything from Lisa and Jason… from how they met to why they broke up.
Lisa Bonet
Before we dive in, we must first set the scene and get to know our protagonists. Lisa Michelle Bonet was born on November 16th, 1967, and trained as an actress at the Celluloid Actor’s Studio in Hollywood. In 1984, she won the role of Denise Huxtable in The Cosby Show.
She appeared in over 100 episodes, and Denise was so popular she even had her own college-set spin-off, A Different World. Then the 19-year-old beauty made the leap to Hollywood, appearing in Alan Parker’s brilliant dark psychological thriller 1987 Angelheart.
Jason Stalked Lisa
On the other side of the country, halfway across the Pacific, an eight-year-old boy called Jason Momoa was watching The Cosby Show.
He later told James Corden, “Ever since I was, like, eight years old and I saw her on the TV, and I was like, ‘Mommy, I want that one.’ I’m like, ‘I’m gonna stalk you for the rest of my life, and I’m gonna get you.’ I am a full-fledged stalker!” Mind you, every boy who grew up in the 1980s wanted to marry Denise Huxtable!
