Something happens, you can't even put your finger on it, and then you don't quite feel the same way anymore. All of a sudden, there's fights or something and you are going "who is this person?" I've seen this happen to other people and it has happened to me.
Joan JettAs a kid, in the Runaways, I would see the interviewers start to ask about our personal lives and what we did โ and I could see the look in their eyes. They were practically frothing at the mouth. So if I answered these questions, I knew they were never gonna talk about the music. It was like that instinct โ donโt go there, man. Have boundaries. Have mystery. You donโt have to let everybody in! I want to be singing to everybody, and I want everybody to think that Iโm singing to them. Guys, girls and everyone in between.

Joan JettYou gotta not care about what people think in general about you. I'm not talking about bad stuff, if you're a nasty person, because I don't consider myself a mean person, I consider that I know what i want and I'm tough. But I'm very emotional and un-tough on a lot of levels, I cry very easily, I'm sensitive and I don't think that's a bad thing.
