Joan Jett & the Blackhearts

If you had to sit down and imagine the ideal female rocker, what would she look like?

Tight leather pants, lots of mascara, black (definitely not blond) hair, and she would have to play guitar like Chuck Berry’s long-lost daughter. She wouldn’t look like Madonna or Taylor Swift. Maybe she would look something like Ronnie Spector, a little formidable and dangerous, definitely - androgynous, for sure.

In fact, if you close your eyes and think about it, she would be the spitting image of Joan Jett. Jett has always brought danger, defiance, and fierceness to rock & roll.
