"It really boils down to this: I want to please everybody. I want every guy and every girl thinking that I'm singing these songs to them, because I am. If I make a hard, fast case on where I stand then that takes away a lot of the fantasy. Music entails a lot of fantasy. I want people to be able to go there with me. Some people might think it's a cop-out. I don't care. That's how I feel."

ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH! THIS IS TO THE DRIED UP PIECE OF CRUSTY GASH THAT THINKS IT IS SO CLEVER USING MY DEAR FRIEND RADICAL QUEEN'S NAME IN IT'S NAME. FIRST OFF, FUCKFACE, YOUR CREDIBILITY STARTED WITH ZERO WHEN YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD REINVENTED THE WHEEL BY SOMEHOW DEDUCING THAT MY CHERISHED FRIEND RQ IS A MAN. WELL CONGRATULATIONS! NOW TAKE YOUR PRIZED "I'M RIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE NEW MILLENIUM" TROPHY, STICK IT UP YOUR ASS, THEN PRY OPEN YOUR ODDLY CRAB-RIDDEN SLIT–SINCE NO ONE ON THE FREE SIDE OF BELLEVUE'S GATES WOULD STICK IT IN ANY OF YOUR HOLES, NO MATTER HOW DRUNK–THEN STUFF IT DOWN YOUR THROAT AND CHOKE ON IT. AND DARLING RQ LUNCH AT THE RUSSIAN TEA ROOM THIS AFTERNOON WAS HEAVENLY. IT'S ALWAYS SO FREE OF THE STALKERS WHO ACCOST US ON PEREZ! TTFN, TREASURE! MYRIAM C
She's right. The beauty of a rockstar or fictional character is the fantasies we are lended. A genius response to the question.
That's Ricky Martin's excuse too.
"I want to please everybody"
oh yeah!
She'll be 50 in Sept. She looks unbelievable! I love JOAN! She's beautiful!
Joan looks absolutely fabulous. That is a smoking hot 50. She looks better than most 20 year olds. I couldn't beleive it, but then had to remind myself: Well, hey, you're 40. Time sure does fly!! She has had some work done, but done VERY well. She looks a helluvalot better than that over processed Madonna with the over processed body. Rock on Joan. And no, you don't have to disclose your sexuality. That is your inner-most business, and if you are so inclinded to discuss it, you will. Until then, or until never, we love you for you.
Whatever. Everyone knows she's gay. I've met her girlfriend.
Re: RADICAL QUEEN LIKES RIMMING – MY GOSH … YOU CERTAINLY ENJOY DISPLAYING YOUR TOTAL INABILITY TO BE CREATIVE DON'T YOU BITCH ? YOUR LAME INSULT SOUNDS RIPPED OFF FROM A SECOND GRADER !!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA !!!! AND THAT'S BEING GENEROUS AS MOST SECOND GRADERS ARE CONSIDERABLY MORE AMMUSING THAN YOU. BUT YOU KEEP TRYING LIKE THE DUMB CUNT YOU ARE…CAUSE I'VE BEEN ENJOYING LAUGHING AT YOU ALL DAY, AND I SEE NO REASON TO STOP NOW. !!!! AND BTW…I ADORE RIMMING…BOYS LOVE THAT BEFORE I STICK MY PIERCED DICK IN THEM.
Re: RADICAL QUEEN – OOOOOHHHHH!
Re: Myriam C Webster – THANKS EVER SO, DAHHLING MYRIAM, FOR YOUR FINE DEFENSE OF MY HONOR. CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS OUTRAGEOUS COW WHOSE NOT CREATIVE ENOUGH TO COME UP WITH HER OWN MONIKER, AND MUST BASTARDIZE MINE WITH EACH OF HER PATHETIC AND TOTALLY UNCREATIVE POSTS ??? SHE'S OBVIOUSLY A VERY ANGRY AND SEXUALLY UNFULLFILLED KUNT. I'VE SPENT MY DAY (AFTER OUR FABULOUS LUNCHEON OF COURSE) LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY AT HER CHILDISH ATTACKS.
What's this bitch's problem, anyway? Oh, I know, she has to maintain some kind of illusion–since she clearly doesn't have the talent of, say, MELISSA ETHERIDGE! Melissa doesn't have to rely on this SMOKE AND MIRRORS routine–her POWERVOICE gets EVERYBODY hottttt!!!
or whether she's a lesbian … LISTEN TO HER MUSIC! Get some Runaways downloads. She wrote many of the songs and rocks HARD. I dig Joan Jett, right on.
SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE CHER!
I never knew she was IN the closet. I started liking Joan Jett in 81-82 and even then we all knew she was gay. But if her answer lets the men like her too then give her those extra fans too…
WOW, she's still smoking hot! Dammit, that woman is fucking hot.
She should get a better plastic surgeon.
Ironically enough, I came out as a lesbian when I was 20 at a Joan Jett concert! What a night THAT was..yummy.
I don't quite get why, if you're gay, you have to "come out" anymore anyway. So what if you're other than a hetero–sex is sex and it's your own private business. Hetero's don't have to declare their sexuality to the world, so why are gays forced to–by their own community no less?
I thought dyke was a bad word…
Re: rjp3 – Yes. Because Serial Killers are so much better than closet lesbians. It's her own personal choice to come out or not (if she is in the first place). And you might not realize this with your tiny uneducated brain, but not all lesbian/gays belive things exactly the same, just as not all hetros share the same exact beliefs. Anyways, she looks hot!
The last time I saw her perform live, half of her songs were about sex with women or bisexuality. There was nothing 'closeted' about her sexual preference. But- I get what she's saying…… The last Jodi Foster movie I saw- "The Brave One" The scenes where she's (trying to be) passionate with her husband (the hottie 'Sayid" from 'Lost') were SO UNCONVINCING!!!! She seemed to hate having to kiss him. It really is hard to take her seriously in a romantic role. (with a man)
Re: RADICAL QUEEN – Do you kiss your mother with that
foul mouth.
oh my.
I LOVE COCK 'N ROLL!!!
Same reason I'm sure that Morrissey hasn't. Everyone knows (I mean, c'mon!) but she doesn't pound it in b/c ultimately, that's her choice. i would LOVE it if she came out, but she does have a point. I love her no matter what. she'll still the toughest woman in rock, and has paved the way for a lot of female rockers.
Lesbo or not, I would LOVE to bang the shit outta her.
Re: Josie – DO YOU FUCK YOUR FELLOW PUSSCATS WITH THOSE USELESS FAT STUBBY FINGERS OF YOURS ??? HMMMMMM ????
Its not your right Perez to say who should discuss their sexuality. Maybe she is bisexual, maybe she is a lesbian. Who cares?
Joan Jett is giving a FREE concert in El Centro on Saturday April 19 at Stark Field for El Centro's 100th Anniversary. Silver Side is the opening band for Joan Jett. Everyone should come out!
i thought she came out YEARS ago. didn't she have an interview in Advocate back in her shaved head days, in which she outed herself?
and is it really closeting if she isn't making a big deal of being gay? but rather is just being a musician for her profession?
not everyone can make being gay a profession, Perez!
First time I've seen this woman look HAPPY, EVER. Too bad she's a lesbian, I'd do her anytime
She's bi.
