Fans got a peek behind the celebrity curtain this week when Zoë Kravitz revealed a wild mishap at Taylor Swift’s Beverly Hills mansion—a story involving a runaway snake, a demolished bathroom, and one very patient pop star.
Appearing on Late Night with Seth Meyers Tuesday, Zoë explained how she and her mom, Lisa Bonet, were staying at Taylor’s home during the L.A. wildfires. The visit took a shocking turn when Lisa’s pet snake, Orpheus, made a break for freedom.
“We were just trying to wash our faces, and the snake had other plans,” Zoë laughed, recalling how Orpheus slithered straight into a tiny hole in a banquette built into the bathroom wall.
Bathroom vs. Snake: The Epic Standoff
Zoë and Lisa initially tried to save the day themselves, clinging to Orpheus’ tail as he disappeared further into the wall.
“The more we pulled, the deeper he went,” Zoë said, describing the increasingly desperate rescue.
When all else failed, Taylor’s house manager arrived on the scene armed with a crowbar, transforming the bathroom into a construction zone. Tiles were ripped up, walls scratched, and chaos reigned as they tried to free the determined reptile.
“It was a choice between totally wrecking the bathroom or letting Taylor live with a snake loose in her house,” Zoë joked.
Taylor Swift Finds Out… Anyway
Despite Zoë’s plea for secrecy, the house manager completely ignored the “Don’t Tell Taylor” rule. By the time Zoë made the call, Taylor was already fully briefed on the snake saga.
“Yeah… Taylor was already in on the slithery scandal!” Zoë laughed.
From Wildfires to Wild Reptiles
This hilarious mishap adds yet another chapter to Zoë Kravitz’s colorful life, blending Hollywood charm, family hijinks, and unexpected chaos. Fans on social media immediately reacted to the story, delighting in the image of a snake-induced celebrity showdown.
The incident also shows Taylor Swift’s legendary hospitality, allowing Zoë and Lisa to stay during a stressful time—and handling a runaway snake with grace (even if indirectly).
Celebrity Pet Fails Are Surprisingly Common
This isn’t the first time Hollywood stars have had their pets wreak havoc. From Kylie Jenner’s exotic animals to Miley Cyrus’ mischievous pooches, celebrities often share humorous, chaotic, or slightly terrifying encounters with their beloved animals. Zoë and Lisa’s story now joins that elite, chaotic category.
Fans are still laughing at the idea of a snake “demolishing” a Beverly Hills bathroom, proving even A-list stars have very human—and wild—moments.
