Zoë Kravitz Reflects on “Ups and Downs” With Social Media and Why It’s “Hurt” Her Career

“Social media is a big experiment that we’re all participating in, and to pretend like we understand it is a joke,” she told Elle. “I have had my ups and downs with it. I’m sure it’s helped my career in some ways, but I also think it’s hurt it.”

Kravitz, noted that specifically, as an actor social media can have some downfalls, saying that, “it’s difficult because I think we give too much information [about ourselves] and it makes it difficult for us to disappear into roles.”

She continued, “The actors that I grew up loving and watching, I didn’t know anything about them. That’s part of what made them so interesting.”

The Big Little Lies actress previously spoke out about her relationship with social media, when sharing regrets giving her thoughts on the Oscars incident. (Following the event, she shared a photo of herself at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty where she wrote, “And here is a picture of my dress at the party after the award show – where we are apparently screaming profanities and assaulting people on stage now.”)

“I have very complicated feelings around it,” she told WSJ Magazine in August. “I wish I had handled that differently. And that’s OK.”
