Lenny Kravitz celebrated his win for Best Rock at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, dedicating the honor to his late mother, Roxie Roker, who passed away in 1995. Reflecting on their bond, he recalled how she accompanied him to the VMAs 31 years ago, stating, "Wow, this is incredible. I am so grateful" during a preshow interview. Roker, best known for her role on The Jeffersons, was remembered fondly by Kravitz, who shared a nostalgic moment from the 1993 awards on social media. He also thanked his team, including video director Joseph Kahn, and expressed excitement for his upcoming Las Vegas residency, which he described as a celebration of life and music. Kravitz performed a medley during the event and noted that his artistry resembles that of a painter, drawing inspiration from his musical influences.
