I never considered how their sweet lives were affecting their bank accounts.
Get the Bod: Joan Jett
I love the idea that a new audience gets to see the awesome-ness of Joan Jett — via Kristen Stewart — in The Runaways, which opens this Friday. The woman seriously rocks, both literally and figuratively. She was off my radar for a bit, but her recent press appearances have reminded me of her amazing body: washboard abs and some smokin' guns to boot.
