Zoe Kravtiz & Penn Badgley were loved up at Coachella: adorable or try-hard?

As you know, there were a lot of young, hip, cool couples at Coachella last weekend and this weekend. But is any couple cooler than Penn Badgley and Zoe Kravitz? Well, maybe. But I still love them. These are new photos of Penn and Zoe at Coachella this weekend. I have to give it to Zoe – those shorts are hideous and dated, but she’s one of the first celebrity girls I’ve seen who actually looks incredibly comfortable. Did Zoe and Penn actually go to Coachella for the music? Probably. Also: doesn’t Zoe look worlds better now that she’s grown out her bangs? So much prettier.

After spending several months in a state of shock, I’ve grown to love Penn and Zoe together. Whatever happened between Zoe and Michael Fassbender – whoever dumped who, I still don’t know – I have to give it to Zoe. She found a boyfriend closer in age, someone who really shares her interests. Penn has turned into quite the little hipster, and his career beyond Gossip Girl seems to be flourishing a bit too – he’ll be playing Jeff Buckley in Greetings From Tim Buckley, and being with Zoe simply ups his credibility, doesn’t it? Like, Zoe wouldn’t be with someone who wasn’t cool. Penn is cooler because he’s with her.

PS… Still loving Penn’s afro too. His hair simply doesn’t do well in any kind of humidity.

    her shorts look really uncomfortable.

  2. merc says:

    She looks so much better without the baby fringe. I still don’t know who she is, though (besides Lenny’ daughter.) He looks messy, and not in a good way.

  3. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    There’s something about her I don’t like and he is not at all attractive.

    Someone explain the tons-of-tiny-tattoos phenomenon to me.

  5. Katren says:

    Why do people keep changing clothes at this festival??? Who the hell takes a change of clothes?

    (Unless this is an overnight festival – I live in Australia and know nothing about it!)

    • merc says:

      It’s a three day event and they held it on two consecutive weekends this year.

      It’s the desert so I’m not buying the humidity excuse for his hairstyle, but it probably was hotter than hell out there. If he was smart he’d get a summer cut.

      • FFS says:

        As the proud owner of a curly mop, any hot weather has the potential to fuck up my ‘do thanks to sweat rolling off the scalp. Add humidity and I feel like shaving the whole damn thing off.

    I think they look adorable, penn and zoe make more sense than zoe and (f)assbender

  7. T.C. says:

    Come on Kaiser you only like Zoe now because she isn’t riding that Fassdong that belongs to you. 🙂 I kid, I kid!

    She looks better with someone closer to her age. Girlfriend sure does love her some extremely pale guys. Nothing wrong with that. Penn is never going to be able to tan just like Fassy.

  8. ramona says:

    Zoe’s tattoos are awful, but not as awful as her dress sense.

    Penn’s hair is icky, his facial hair is icky, and his shirt looks filthy. I want to bathe him.

    Yuck. Just yuck.

  9. Franny says:

    Seeing someone change their look so much when they start dating someone always makes me wonder if they were hiding who they were before, or if this drastic change is for the new person. Like, when he was with Blake, he never wore these clothes, his hair like that, or went to these kinds of events…so was he pretending with her, or now hipster pretending with Zoe? I know people change their likes over time, but this is somewhat of a drastic change…

  10. celine says:

    yeah, there good to go.

  11. Talie says:

    So funny to see how he looked far more clean-cut when he was dating Blake (and now she is with the ultimate clean-cut guy). I think Penn prefers himself this way.

  12. marie says:

    they’re a cute couple.. I have hair like his, and there is absolutely nothing you can do in humidity except ponytail or hat..

  13. Liv says:

    I hated her bangs! Much better hair now…and her face is really really beautiful!

  14. Chatcat says:

    There is no way her bangs grew out that fast…i.e. extensions…which is fine. I don’t care for either of them personally but they fit together totally as a scruffy couple. And I agree with other posters here, if she wasn’t Lenny’s daughter she would not be given opportunities she has had because she isn’t talented at acting (small role in XMen) has no musical talent and she is only as attractive as any average 22 year old today, except most aren’t as dirty and run down looking. Yuk.

  15. Alexis says:

    They look dirty, but I think they go well together as a couple. He made NO sense with Blake Lively and she made NO sense with Michael Fassbender.

  16. Ari says:

    What is up with her jailhouse tattoos? lol

  17. Dibba says:

    What is on her forehead ?

  18. nikzilla37 says:

    Those ugly, high-waisted “Mom” shorts are becoming a lot more visible lately and boy, are they hideous on just about anyone. Ugh.

  19. sammi says:

    I do agree her fassbender didn’t look right together, but I just don’t see any type of chemistry between Zoe and Penn they seem more like friends to me I know they are suppose to be seeing each other, but he never looks really happy with her, also I am not going for him being this hipster that is not who he really is, he should just try being himself whoever that is. maybe he will change back once he and Zoe eventually breakup.

  20. hmm says:

    I think they are true hipsters and they always dress and act the same way. They didn’t adopt the persona for the festival like so many other celebs and they genuinely look like they fit as a couple.

  21. alex says:

    I love them together and I don’t even know why.

  22. please says:

    this guy isn’t a hipster he said in an interview that he totally changed from who he was before, which is totally impossible to me you can every totally change yourself, you can act like it but you are who you are and this radical hippie he isn’t. he seemed happier to me being the person that he was before. He really needs to go find his real self.

  23. CL says:

    I want to attack both of their faces with a wet washcloth.

  24. loma says:

    I’ve never really been interested in Zoe, but she’s beautiful. Amazing bone structure, gorg lips. She’s also got a chill attitude which probably makes sense since she’s the child of seemingly cool famous people. She doesn’t seem famewhorish.

    Penn I have no thoughts on.

    Just a note on Fassbender. When I was much younger I was in a 2 year relationship with a much older guy. Hot as it was, the whole thing was a drag because even without knowing it, older dudes can be condescending. Not always but it happens often enough. The next guy I dated was also older but sadly, a man-child. That didn’t work either, big surprise

  25. Meadowlark says:

    I don’t know why but I’m growing to love Zoe and her hipster Bf. If they lived in the Bay, they’d probably be in my circle of annoying hipster acquaintances.

  26. Alexis says:

    I think they’re just adorable. They look great together.

  27. sarah says:

    They look cute together. But I really, really, really hate those shorts. Her bag and top are cute though.
