Miley Cyrus joins Joan Jett onstage at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
MILEY CYRUS joined JOAN JETT onstage at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Saturday (18Apr15) after welcoming the rocker and her band THE BLACKHEARTS into the museum.
The Wrecking Ball hitmaker, who sported pasties with Jett's initials on them over her breasts, recalled her first meeting with the 56-year-old in her speech.
She said, "We were doing Oprah together, and I went up to Joan's
hotel room. Joan opens the door, and I come in, and Kenny Laguna is
laying in bed. I don't know what the f**k is going on. There's
towels shoved underneath all the door cracks, shower caps around
all the smoke detectors. Joan is running around spraying
orange-smelling cleaner to mask the smell of the pot."
"The (Oprah) show was where new artists got to perform with their
idols, and I wanted to perform with Joan, of course. And we were in
her bathroom, and we were smoking and just talking, and this was
one of the moments in my life where I wanted to be as present and
absorb everything that she said to me.
"I listened to her talk about her days with the Runaways. She
talked about music. She talked about why she loves animals, and she
doesn't want to eat them. I was getting to have this moment with
someone that, to me, is Superwoman. What Superwoman really should
be."
Following her speech, Jett took to the stage with Foo Fighters
frontman Dave Grohl, original Blackhearts bassist Gary Ryan, rocker
Tommy James and Cyrus to perform her cover hit Crimson And
Clover.
