Joan Jett: “I’m very close to vegan”

In a recent interview with New York Daily News, rock singer Joan Jett revealed that she is “very close to vegan.”
The frontwoman of Joan Jett & the Blackhearts told the publication that she no longer buys “new leather”, and tries to “look for vegan options on everything.” She added:
“They make a lot of great fake leather now, too.”
While Jett stated that she can’t call herself vegan due to small amounts of honey and butter consumption “here and there,” she noted she is “very close,” and added:
“I’m not judging anyone else’s path, but to me I might as well be putting my cat on a dinner plate. To me, there’s no difference (between that) or my grandmother, or for that matter, a baby – baby meat is very tender, just ask the veal and the lamb. Where do you draw the line?”
On November 30, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts will be performing at North Shore Animal League America’s “Get Your Rescue On” Gala in New York.
