Well hot diggity, she's done it again! The world's original female rock star has kindly chosen to use her powers for good by taking the time to shoot a new PSA for us. Just in case you hadn't heard, in addition to being a trailblazing icon, Joan is also an outspoken animal rights activist (not to mention that I've had my hair blown back by her bangin' music).
The Songwriting Hall of Famer doesn't just toss us a bone now and again by lending us her celebrity; this vegan actually talks about animal rights to every interviewer and audience that will listen. Her refreshing outlook and activism include a passion for the environment as well. Her latest CD, Sinner (which is rockin' in my earphones right now), actually comes to you loud and direct in 100 percent recycled packaging.
Because she gets the big picture, she's obviously the perfect candidate to give a spiel about why going vegetarian is most important favor we can do for the only planet we have. Check out the snappy, fact-filled veggie testimonial she did for us here:

That's great! I just wish I knew Bjork's stance on animal rights. She rocks on multiple levels, lol. I hope she supports animal rights, I mean she seems so cool how could she not?

Joan Jett is a vegan, i had no idea. That is good to know. And it is few and far between that you find a celebrity that gets the big picture.

I'm a vegan, so i totally support everything she just said and i'm a huge Blackhearts fan!! I totally get what she's saying, about everything, but especially about what she said about what people say to her about the protein thing!! I guarantee you that every person that asks that question is not getting enough protein themselves!!!

Love Joan's video. She just spells it out with no BS, just like her music.

Joan Jett is my heroin! I've seen her three times in California! When Joan and the blackhearts come out to do their opening number, they hit that stage running! She sings about a "Bad Reputation", and I like her style. She has a great view about animals, health, and the environment!

Joan has always been an inspiration to me, not only musically, but personally. Truly makes me want to become true to my love of animals, as I have a few I consider children of mine. It is said to change the world takes one
person, one person makes ten more etc. My conclusion is lead by example. Joan has always been a true leader.

Like Joan i fell much better in many ways being a vegetarian.I met Joan some 25 years ago (when she wasnt a vegetarian) which ended up being not a very good evening.Now that she and i are vegetarians i believe we would have a fabulous evening.
