Literally THE Queen of Rock and Roll! Joan got her start in the music industry when she formed an all girl rock band The Runaways in 1975 with Cherie Currie, Lita Ford, Jackie Fox, and Sandy West. When the band broke up in 1979, she went solo and formed a backup band with “3 good men, not show offs” called The Blackhearts. After being rejected by 23 major labels, Joan started Blackheart Records and released her own music with hits such as “Bad Reputation,” “Do You Wanna Touch Me,” “I Hate Myself For Loving You,” and her smash 1982 hit, “I Love Rock and Roll.” She was also an actress and costarred with Michael J Fox in the 1987 film “Light Of Day.” In the 90s, she was involved in the Riot Grrrl movement with bands like Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, L7, The Gits, and Bratmobile. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015 and the documentary on her life, Bad Reputation, was released in 2018. She still continues to record music and tour internationally to this day. She is also an inspiration to multiple girls and women around the world.
