She is an actress, model and musician.

She wore a cotton bra by ARAKS with matching panties over black fishnets for several of the sexy black and white photos as she touched on several aspects of her life including her career in three different art forms and friendship with Miley Cyrus in the accompanying article.

Perhaps her success in different fields has to do with her no frills attitude as she addressed people's opinions on her music by saying: 'I seriously do not give a s***.'

Though she is best known for her work on the silver screen, she is also frontwoman to the band Lola Wolf and has done some modelling including working on a 2010 Alexander Wang campaign.

Seductive: The 26-year-old beauty showed off her toned tummy in a white cotton bra for several snaps in the pictorial

Svelte: She was also pictured running her fingers through her long, braided hair

Zoe definitely has an old school attitude when it comes to fame as she said: 'That was the way the entertainment industry started, if you really think about it. You used to have to be a triple threat to survive in Hollywood. You know, a Gene Kelly, or a Julie Andrews.'

The rockstar life of singing in the R&B/electropop trio has led her to opening for some big acts like Lily Allen and Twin Shadow and even a friendship with Miley Cyrus.

It even resulted in the 22-year-old Wrecking Ball hitmaker starring in their video for B**** as Zoe explained: 'We’d hung out with Miley the day before, we didn’t even know she was going to be in town, and we had this idea.

Smoking hot: She also sported a top with the Pepsi logo an 'Jesus is the right choice' emblazoned on it while puffing on a cigarette

Sweet girl: The Divergent star posed in a knit sweater with the American flag on it by Coach in addition to a white silk slip dress by ARAKS while licking on a spoon of ice cream

Literally it was just us with a friend,Trouble Andrew, who’s directed a bunch of our videos. I said "come hang out" and she showed up with like googly eyes and like a sexy outfit. We hung out, it was really fun.'

The clip was released in May as it featured the two partying it up in a motel room as they popped champagne, smoked suspicious looking cigarettes, took pictures of each other and played cards all while in their underwear.

'The more I hung out with her, the more we talked about music. I just love her. I get really excited when I meet someone who can really talk music, who really listens to music… I just like the way her brain works,' said Zoe.

Big role: Zoe is best known for her work in film including starring in critically-accolaimed action flick Mad Max: Fury Road as she is pictured with co-sstars Abbey Lee Kershaw and Courtney Eaton

Strutting her stuff: Zoe has also done modelling work as she was featured in Alexander Wang's 2010 campagin, as she was pictured with the designer in October 2013 in New York

Passionate: She also fronts R&B/electropop trio, Lola Wolf, as she is pictured performing at the Budweiser Made In America Festival in Philadelphia in September

Artistic freedom appears to be paramount for the starlet and her bandmates Jimmy Giannopoulos and James Levy as she said that Lola Wolf is not signed to a record deal because their meetings with labels always ended with them wanting to change them.

As she has showcased her acting talent in many different roles and genres of film, she admitted that she has made a concerted effort to do so as they showcase the different parts of her personality.

Growing up with famous parents, Zoe seems to be very mindful of what people's perceptions are of her as she said: 'I’ve always been very aware and slightly paranoid that people think I’m some kind of spoilt brat that just wants to party and got everything really easily.

The brunette beauty has definitely been hard at wok as she has six films on the horizon including drama Viena And The Fantomes and the third and fourth films of the Divergent film series titled Allegiant and Ascendant, respectively.

Gal pals: Touring with the band has even led her opening up for Miley Cyrus -pictured together at the Met Gala in New York back in May - who she has built a strong friendship with

Partying hard: The 22-year-old starred in Lolawolf's music video for B**** released back in May, as the two had plenty of fun with one another in a hotel room for the shoot

Famous family: Actress Lisa Bonet and musician Lenny Kravitz - pictured together at an event in LA back in February 2010 - are Zoe's parents as she is very aware of perceptions of her growing up with famous parents

Mad Max: Fury Road premiere with Thandie Newton, Charlize Theron, Sean Penn and Tom Hardy

'I am completely overdressed!' Thandie Newton missed the memo as she cuts an elegant figure in ball gown at Mad Max premiere

For the premiere of the post-apocalyptic thriller Mad Max: Fury Road, it was an occasion for its stars and guests to take risks with edgy fashion choices.

But Thandie Newton missed that memo and made an elegant appearance in an ethereal, voluminous gown in Hollywood on Thursday.

'I am completely overdressed. And I LOVE IT!! #MadMaxFuryRoad' she tweeted from the event.

'Overdressed' Thandie Newton told her Twitter fans that she dressed far to formally for the Mad Max: Fury Road premiere in Hollywood on Thursday

The 42-year-old's spectacular outfit included a metallic bandeau bodice and a voluminous white tulle skirt that featured hints of pink and other colors.

The British actress' brunette tresses were styled with a part and cascaded down her back.

She teamed the look with a white clutch and simple jewelry.

The Mission Impossible: II star later gushed on Twitter after catching the film, which will hit theaters on May 15, calling it 'phenomenal.'

She tweeted: 'Mad Max is PHENOMENAL. Defying every bulls**t stereotype - it even passes the Bechdel Test. Rock On George Miller!'

The Beloved actress' reference to the 'Bechdel Test' - which calls attention to gender inequality in films - was first introduced in 1985 in Alison Bechdel's syndicated comic strip Dykes to Watch Out For.

To pass the test a film must meet three points: '(1) The movie has to have at least two women in it, (2) who talk to each other (3) about something besides a man.'

Mad Max: Fury Road stars Charlize Theron as Furiosa, a tough road warrior, who enlists the help of Max, played by Tom Hardy, to help female captives cross a desert, played by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Riley Keough, Zoë Kravitz, Abbey Lee, and Courtney Eaton.

Meanwhile, at the premiere its star Charlize Theron looked a far cry from the tough character she plays.

The 39-year-old made a glamorous appearance for her movie's premiere wearing a mesh dress that flattered her svelte curves.

By the blonde's side was her beau Sean Penn showed his tender side by secretly locking hands with his sweetheart behind her back as they posed for photo.

And there was no shortage of star power lending their support for the film, including originator Mel Gibson, Lisa Marie Presley and Priscilla Presley for daughter and granddaughter Riley Keough, and Lisa Bonet with husband Jason Mamoa to cheer on her daughter Zoe Kravitz.

The South African stunner was styled to perfection in a knee-length mesh column dress that featured a white bodice and black drop-waist skirt.

Strappy black heels, a black clutch and blinding Harry Winston diamonds completed the look. A splash of pink lipstick and a smokey eye made the look all the more smoldering.

And Milk actor Sean was dressed in all black in a sharp suit.

She's a perfect blend of her parents, rocker Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet.

And Zoe Kravitz shows off her stunning bone structure - and much of her slender physique in a new photoshoot for Flaunt magazine.

The 26-year-old actress and singer features in issue 141 - dubbed The Elixir Issue - and talks about her extremely chaotic schedule.

She said: 'I'm a big fan of relaxing. Also I beat myself up a lot—if I don't feel active. I like to push myself.'

She revealed: 'I just wrapped a film mid-January. It went straight to Sundance… Ever since then it's been nonstop. Press for Insurgent. I have a film called Good Kill coming out with Ethan Hawke. Mad Max press is gearing up. Dope is also at Sundance. That's coming out in June.'.

The set of rather stark images, some taken against a shabby looking wall, are void of much colour.

In one beautiful shot the actress is photographed from the back displaying her slender shape and tattoos in a body chain which is draped over her shoulders.

In another photo Zoe wears a top hat and trousers - with not much else.

Her long braids are left loose in some, half-up for others and tied up in a top knot in one image where she sits cross-legged wearing a black gown and intricate choker adorning her neck.

Zoe - who also has plans to tour with her band Lolawolf soon - talked about her excitement at being part of a sci-fi movie such as Mad Max: 'It's so much bigger than you… stunts, and building sets, and special effects…

'There's so much more than just you. You feel like part of a machine. Like a working part of a machine. I'm [used to] the other side, independent films.'

Stark: Many of the photos are shot against the shabby looking wall of what appears to be a studio or warehouse

Sultry: In another image Zoe sits crosse-legged as she wears a black gown with a leather and chain choker at her neck

Meanwhile, Zoe recently revealed personal struggles she dealt with in high school during an interview withComplex magazine.

'I had a really hard time when I was 16, 17, 18. I started with the eating disorder in high school...,' she sadd, adding: 'Just [a hard time] loving myself.'

She went on to say that having such a gorgeous mother and a father known for his beautiful partners was also intimiating.

'My mother's a beautiful woman, and I think, in some way, I felt intimidated by that sometimes. My dad dated a lot of supermodels,' Zoe said with a laugh.

Natural beauty: The star is a perfect blend of her parents Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet

Where she got her good looks: Musician Lenny and actress Cosby Show actress Lisa were married from 1987 to 1993
