Joan Jett (born Joan Marie Larkin September 22, 1958) is an American rock guitarist, singer, songwriter, producer and occasional actress, best known for her work with Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, including their hit cover "I Love Rock 'n' Roll", which was No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 from March 20 to May 1, 1982, as well as for their other popular recordings including "Crimson and Clover", "I Hate Myself for Loving You", "Do You Want to Touch Me", "Light of Day", "Love Is All Around", "Bad Reputation". She has three albums that have been certified Platinum or Gold, and she has been referred to as the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll" many times during her career.
In her first UK headline show in 16 years, Jett has a terrific knack for a cover version, though she’s a touch nonchalant – and there’s a real misstep. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee celebrated 45 years of her career-defining albums Bad Reputation and I Love Rock’n’Roll.

Celebrity Interview: Joan Jett & Kenny Laguna Friday March 5, 2004 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM Westin Harbour Castle Hotel
Put another dime in the jukebox baby, and catch the leather-clad Queen Of Rock 'n' Roll and her muse. In this frank Q&A, Joan Jett and longtime songwriting collaborator Kenny Laguna talk about Joan's unlikely career in the boys club of rock (the ex-Runaway was rejected by 23 labels before her hitmaking 1980 album Joan Jett). And you'll hear how the refueled Jett is back in the studio and in the nation's face this election year.
