Lenny Kravitz shows off insane body at 62 in shirtless Instagram photo

There's a heatwave in Las Vegas and it may have something to do with Lenny Kravitz's presence.
The singer sent temperatures rising to 43 degrees Celsius with his latest Instagram photo in which he is seen lounging around in his Sin City hotel suite, shirtless and looking as ripped as ever.
'Las Vegas. 110 degrees,' he captioned the black-and-white snap, taken by photographer Mia Ross.
It appears the 62-year-old is currently enjoying some down time on the famous strip after performing a five-date residency earlier this month at the Dolby Live amphitheatre at the Park MGM hotel to support his latest album, Blue Electric Light.
Kravitz took to the stage in his signature leather pants and vest to rock out some tracks from his 12th studio album along with his greatest hits, including Are You Gonna Go My Way, American Woman, It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over, and of course, Fly Away.
His electric stage performances coupled with his insanely early gym workouts no doubt help to keep Kravitz in optimal shape.
The musician recently left many in disbelief when he revealed the extent of his commitment to maintaining his six-pack.
'The other night I was in the gym at 2.30 in the morning. I was working all day,' he told The Times in February. 'My trainer [Dodd Romero], he's like, 'Man, you are crazy. People don't understand. They see the result, but they don't understand that you're in the gym at 2.30 in the morning doing this workout.''
He continued: 'I work with my trainer via FaceTime because he's out doing other things. He's with Denzel [Washington] right now, preparing for a play. I put them together years ago. Wait until you see how wonderful Denzel is looking, how healthy he is.
'So yes, when I look at pictures from now and pictures when I was even in my twenties, there's no comparison, which is very odd.'
Aussie fans will soon see Kravitz and his rig up close when he brings his Blue Electric Light Tour down under in November.
The four-time Grammy winner will perform shows in Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, Melbourne and a special regional show in Mildura, with ARIA Hall of Fame inductees Jet named as the supporting act.
It marks the first time Kravitz has performed in Australia since his Black and White Australia Tour alongside The Cranberries and Wolfmother back in 2012.

Jelena Dokic pics melt hearts after tennis champ ‘hard launches' new relationship

Jelena Dokic is living her best life. The beloved former tennis player has jetted off on holiday with her new partner Yane Veselinov, weeks after hard launching their relationship last month. Posting a picture of her and Veselinov, Dokic wrote: 'You are my calm, safe, peaceful and happy place. So glad I found you.' Now the couple have taken the next step in their relationship, heading away to Bali together on a well deserved break. Dokic and Veselinov, a hospitality operations manager, were spotted at Denpasar Airport after touching down in Indonesia for a getaway. They were all smiles as they walked through the airport with their luggage, with Dokic even waving to someone she appeared to recognise. It's the first time the couple have been pictured publicly together and Dokic looked a picture of happiness, grinning from ear to ear as they embarked on their holiday. The 42-year-old later posted a photo on Instagram of a stunning Bali villa, and also shared a happy snap of herself looking very relaxed surrounded by trees. It was accompanied by a heartfelt caption featuring messages 'to the person I used to be', ' to the person I am today' and 'to the person I am becoming'. She wrote: 'You are rising and thriving. Keep going. Continue believing in yourself and never giving up. 'Keep working hard. Stay kind, soft and a good person with a good heart. ' Keep choosing peace, truth, kindness, empathy and compassion. Never allow anyone to take your smile and your worth away. You are enough.' The tennis star turned commentator previously dated Tin Bikic for 19 years before the relationship ended in 2022. Since their split, Dokic has rebuilt her life and career and has also opened up in depth about the torment she endured at the hands of her late father, Damir. The former world No. 4 tennis player survived physical and emotional abuse from her father along with cowardly online trolling over her appearance, to forge a successful career as a commentator and author. And her news of her relationship comes just weeks after she appeared on the Mental As Anyone podcast, the beloved tennis champion spoke about her love of children and the possibility of exploring adoption. 'I was in a relationship for almost 19 years from the age of 20 and right when we split up, we were about to start trying for a family. 'Maybe one day. One day will I adopt? Possibly. It's something I would love to do because I love kids.' It's been a busy few months for Dokic, who commentated on the French Open and Wimbledon before winning a Logie Award for the Best Factual or Documentary Program. Dokic's 'Unbreakable: The Jelena Dokic Story' feature was a popular winner, and the 42-year-old stole the show with an impromptu speech after saying she was in 'complete shock' that she won. The former Wimbledon quarter-finalist's big moment came just 76 days after the death of her estranged father Damir Dokic. The much-loved former world No. 4 tennis player survived physical and emotional abuse from her father and has been an inspiration for many as she manages her childhood trauma. It's one of the reasons her speech was so moving. 'I know you said 30 seconds but I will need at least 30 to gather myself,' she said. 'I'm actually in shock. I didn't think this was possible and I didn't have a speech prepared. 'I want to say a massive thank you to every single person who voted, not just the fans, but the industry. And not because of me. But because the hard stories and the difficult topics need to be told to create awareness. 'This is something that we did not even talk about 10 years ago. Now we have it in books and on screen. 'This is not about winning. This is about a win for victims and survivors, especially of domestic violence and mental health.' 'To every kid and person out there, I will say to every single girl and woman out there, never allow anyone to take your worth or happiness or smile away. 'Believe in your goals and dreams. I am standing here as someone who literally had that dream. I believed in it. I didn't give up on it. If I can do it you can do it too.' Speaking about fellow tennis great and Channel 9 co-host, Todd Woodbridge, was the moment that brought her emotions to breaking point. 'Lastly Todd Woodbridge, you're my person,' she said, holding back tears. 'I say that, and this makes me cry so much, because when I sat down at that table with you 11 years ago when I retired and you said to me that I can be a commentator and bring my story to life, I looked at you and I said to you 'I don't know who you are talking about but you are not talking about me.' 'I was a person who couldn't string two sentences together and had no skills. 'You believed in me professionally. I hope everyone finds a Todd like I did. 'You're a massive reason why I'm here, I'm standing here in every single way. 'I say if everyone can have a father and mentor like Todd they would be very fortunate.' In a speech that went well over the time allowed on the running sheet, Dokic also thanked figures behind the scenes of the production. 'You made this happen. We would not even have sat down at the table to talk about this possibility if it wasn't for you,' she said. Dokic has emerged as one of the most cherished figures in Australian sport in her advocacy for sufferers of abuse and mental health. The final message she shared about her father shows how raw the trauma of her abuse remains. 'My father passed away in the late hours on 16.05.2025,' she wrote. 'As you know my relationship with my father has been difficult and painful with a lot of history. 'Despite everything and no matter how hard, difficult and in the last 10 years even non-existent our relationship and communication was, it is never easy losing a parent and a father even one you are estranged from. 'The loss of an estranged parent comes with a difficult and complicated grief. 'It's an end of a chapter and life as I know it.'

Sunrise, Weekend Sunrise and The Morning Show continue to dominate ratings amid growth in viewers

The Seven Network has once again dominated morning television this year, maintaining the number one spot across Sunrise, Weekend Sunrise and The Morning Show every single week of the year. All three programs have recorded strong audience growth in 2025, with the winning margins over the nearest competitors also widening. Sunrise's national total TV audience has increased seven per cent so far this year, while Weekend Sunrise is up six per cent and The Morning Show is up 10 per cent. Audiences on 7plus are up 55 per cent, 61 per cent and 46 per cent respectively. Sunrise has reigned as Australia's favourite breakfast program for 22 years, with a now unbeatable lead across 2025. Hosted by Natalie Barr and Matt Shirvington from Brekky Central, Sunrise has been the most-watched breakfast program nationally every day so far this year. The Morning Show with Larry Emdur and Kylie Gillies achieved the same impressive result, scoring its 18th year at #1 in the mornings, also winning every day. Weekend Sunrise, co-hosted by Monique Wright and David Woiwod, has remained the first choice for viewers every Saturday and Sunday, continuing its winning streak as Australia's #1 weekend breakfast show – a position it has held since 2006. Every month, Sunrise reaches more than 4.5 million Australians nationally, with Weekend Sunrise reaching 3.4 million and the weekday The Morning Show reaching 3.2 million. This year, Sunrise is number one across all capital cities combined; dominates breakfast viewing in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia and Tasmania; and retains its unassailable lead across regional Australia. The success of these programs reaches beyond the TV screen. Sunrise has a combined audience of 3.3 million followers across Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok and YouTube. Videos across Sunrise's socials have accrued more than 348 million views in 2025, with the total audience on social media growing by 246 per cent compared to 2024. The Morning Show has a combined social audience of 656,000, with videos across these platforms accruing 54.8 million video views so far this year, with the total audience up 478 per cent on 2024. The show's Facebook page has welcomed 16,000 new followers in 2025. Seven West Media Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Howard, said: 'Week in, week out, more Australians turn to Sunrise, The Morning Show and Weekend Sunrise than any other breakfast and morning shows to be informed and entertained. The fact that all three have increased their audiences this year is testament to the talent and commitment of everyone who works on the shows, on and off screen. 'Sunrise, The Morning Show and Weekend Sunrise have an unmatched connection with morning audiences. Congratulations to the entire team for another great year and thank you to our loyal viewers.' Seven Network Director of Morning Television, Sarah Stinson, said: 'Beyond just the ratings, the real story of 2025 is about growth. The strong audience increase across all three programs highlights that viewers aren't just loyal, they're increasingly engaged. It reflects the trust Australians place in our morning teams to deliver the news, entertainment and companionship they value to start their day. 'This result belongs to the team. Every person on air, in the control room, the newsroom or production has played a part in making our programs Australia's #1 once again. 'It's their passion, creativity and commitment that keep us ahead, and it's that energy which connects so strongly with our audiences, who we're grateful to for watching each and every day,' she said. Sunrise co-host, Natalie Barr, said: 'From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to our wonderful Sunrise family for joining us from your lounge rooms, your kitchens and often your bedrooms – laughing with us and urging us to get to the heart of every story and ask the tough questions.' Sunrise co-host, Matt Shirvington, said: 'I'm so grateful to work alongside Nat, our brilliant Sunrise team and so many people behind the scenes who pour their hearts into every show. We'll keep bringing you the laughs, the stories and moments that matter – every single morning. Thank you!' The Morning Show co-host, Kylie Gillies, said: 'People who watch The Morning Show, the guests who come in for segments and the powerfully creative producing team who create the show, all of them are family – a big crazy family who are there for one another and 'in' on the laughs, jokes and storytelling. 'I'm forever grateful that after 18 years, Laz and I are still a team that people tune into. I think that's because we both still enjoy the show so much. And it shows. People say they can tell. And that makes me very happy.' The Morning Show co-host, Larry Emdur, said: 'Eighteen years sounds like the longest time, but it really has flown by. We have fun every day, we laugh every day, and we hope our viewers do too. Thank you for having us in your loungerooms.'

Gary Shteyngart, Jennifer Mills and Rhett Davis ask what's next

Russian born US writer Gary Shteyngart imagines a future America with strong parallels to Russia in Vera, or Faith, Adelaide based author Jennifer Mills' latest novel Salvage rockets into space after ecological collapse, and Geelong author Rhett Davis on Aborescence about people who want to become trees. Gary Shteyngart is the Russian-born, American-based author of novels including Absurdistan, Super Sad True Love Story and Our Country Friends. His latest book Vera, or Faith, is about a precocious child living in near future America, where cars have attitude and equality is under threat. Gary talks about the worrying parallels between the USA and Russia and the precarious state of immigrants in the country. Jennifer Mills (Dyschronia and The Airways) is one of the most exciting experimental writers in Australia. Her latest novel, Salvage, is a propulsive novel about sisterhood, space and what happens after ecological collapse. She also talks about wanting her books to be of use to readers. And staying with the environmental theme, Geelong based author Rhett Davis's second book Arborescence continues his fascination with trees that featured in his debut, Hovering. Arborescence is about a movement of people who want to grow roots and become trees (and they do, in their billions)! It's also about the absurdity of modern-day life.
