When you’re a rock star you can do whatever you want. So if you’re Lenny Kravitz and your longtime friend Denzel Washington calls while you’re on stage, you don’t have to wait to pick up the phone.

During a recent stop on his Blue Electric Light Tour, the “Fly Away” singer took a moment to shout out the legendary actor, saying, “I’m sorry, my big brother just called me up on the phone to say hi.” He then held up his phone, announcing, “Y’all know Denzel Washington.” This caused the crowd to go wild, something the rocker encouraged, bringing a smile to Denzel’s face. “Alright brother, I love you, I’ll call you later,” the actor/singer said as he concluded the call.

Another person noted that the “It Ain’t Over Til It’s Over” rocker lives differently than the rest of us, replying, “You can never out flex Lenny. Damn!”
