Punk icon Joan Jett savors rock 'in' role-model gig

This is the first time I've heard of Joan Jett being "punk" or a "punk icon" It doesn't fit in well with "I love rock'n'roll" or her decidedly mainstream music. Iconic, yes, and a great trailblazer for women in rock.

I agree. Rock, yes. Punk, no. I think the headline writer just isn't very familiar with the topic, as often happens.

According to her background information on Wikipedia, her genres are rock, hard rock and punk rock, so the writer has it right. She is multifaceted.
