Joan Jett = Hard Ass?

The San Francisco Examiner is reporting that Joan Jett was so critical of Kristen's performance she made her cry. A spywitness told the NY Daily “Joan just wants Kristen to play an authentic version of herself, so she needled her a little bit too much. But she apologized when she realized how upset Kristen got.” And apparently this all went down in front of the cast and crew. It's also been reported that Kristen sang "I love playing with fire" around 55 times, was that the director's idea or Joans insistence?

Comment by Joanna on June 30, 2009 at 2:10pm: We pretty much all know that artists can be weird and cranky about their work, let alone if we're talking about auto-biography... I'm not justifying her temper (if that's true first-of-all) but I can understand her pressure over Kristen because she wants everything to be perfect and above all realistic ... This movie represents her life.

IF JOAN DOESN'T LIKE HOW KRISTEN PLAY OF HER .. KRISTEN ISN'T JOAN .. SHE DO THE BEST THAT SHE CAN I THINK

Comment by Takia2011 on June 30, 2009 at 5:11pm: That is terrible! Poor Kristen!

Comment by Twilight_Is_Love on June 30, 2009 at 6:05pm: If all of this is indeed true and Kristen couldn't sing the song the way Joan preferred it, I would think that after about the, oh, I don't know, 16th-17th-18TH! TIME, then maybe Kristen could lip sync that one song?

Comment by STUPID LAMB :) ! on June 30, 2009 at 6:19pm: poor kristen , I would have cracked too with all that pressure !

Comment by Lkel on June 30, 2009 at 8:53pm: I dont think they fit her setherfree. But back to Joan. I think Kristen is not right for this part she doesnt even look like her and act like her. Joan is a badass and I love her.
