Pat Benatar on Not Being Inducted into the Rock Hall (Yet)
Pat Benatar remains one of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s biggest snubs, but it’s not something she’s really sweating.
When asked whether not being in the Rock Hall bothers here in a new interview for CBS Sunday Morning, Benatar responded, “No. Listen, when you win things, it’s really fun. But the point is, does this validate, not validate what we’ve done? No.”
She would further add, “It would be nice to have it for our children, for the fans, everything else. Do I need someone to acknowledge? No.”
As previously reported, Benatar and husband/music partner Neil Giraldo are currently working on contributing music for Invincible The Musical, a new reworking of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The stage production will feature versions of many of the songs Benatar and Giraldo have written and performed together for over 40 years.
