JOAN JETT'S PAST LIFE: `I WAS A PAINTER IN ANCIENT GREECE'

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- Joan Jett may love rock and roll but she's also a fan of ancient history. Jett admits that when she isn't rocking out on stage, she spends her time studying ancient Greek culture circa 7000 B.C. Her fascination with ancient Greece is personal: she believes she was a Greek painter in a past life. She's also pretty sure she didn't spend much time philosophizing with Socrates or Plato because, in her words, "I get bored unless I'm doing something with my hands." Jett's latest project is a radio rerelease of her single, "Bad Reputation," which is currently the theme song of the NBC series, "Freaks And Geeks."
