The Night Belongs to Cherie Currie
Happy Birthday Cherie Currie, lead vocalist of The Runaways, the all-girl heavy metal band she was in with Joan Jett and — ahh, I'd continue, but "Cherry Bomb" is already stuck in my head.

The Runaways L.A. premiere was fine and all. But the New York iteration last night the hipster-approved Landmark Sunshine Cinema, was black magic. It brought out not just the film's heroines but DEBBIE HARRY! To say nothing of Chloe Sevigny.
