Lita Ford is still feeling sorry for herself after all these years. Perhaps it is because she never got the same attention that Joan Jett and Cherie Currie did when they were all playing together in The Runaways. She could have easily been included more during the filming of the movie, as Joan and Cherie were, but she chose to pout instead. It's a shame that a woman with her talent apparently never outgrew her teenage mindset. It's time for her to grow up already.

I happen to like both musicians, but it's my professional opinion that Lita has more talent in the smallest joint of her pinky finger than Joan Jett will ever have.

Billy - you must have noticed that Lita Ford is still alive. the above quote refers to the new movie. which means she "still is".

but even if you feel she is a has been - what has the fact that you feel that way have ANYTHING to do with the facts that A) she had nothing to do with the making of the movie, and that B) she did not sell the rights to her life story for $1000 ?

perhaps you'd like to stand in front of her amps for about 10 minutes. then tell me if you think she's a has been.

At this point in time, you would think such has-beens would appreciate the publicity with the film.

Lita's 15 minutes was up 15 years ago.
