Lenny Kravitz has denied reports linking him to the vacant singing position in Velvet Revolver.

“I know and love the Velvet Revolver guys but there is no truth to the story about me joining their band,” Kravitz told Rolling Stone.

A report in yesterday's Sun newspaper claimed that Kravitz had been spotted in the studio with the band, who have been without a frontman since Scott Weiland's departure in April.

Kravitz added that he has been busy touring Europe and has had no contact with the rest of Velvet Revolver.

Last week, Velvet Revolver denied that Spacehog frontman Royston Langdon will be unveiled as their new singer, despite his recent performance with the group.

  • If your really interested in knowing the truth, VR is planning to try Lenny but hasn’t yet (as of yesterday when I talked to Matt), they also plan to try out a guy from Space Hog, so it’’s not completely untrue, but its not a sure thing. Denials at this point are meaningless. Everyone always denies the rumors and then when it actually happens you realize they were just trying to quiet the publicity.
