The poor girl used to stay hours outsidelistening to them play, imagining herself asa Rockstar.
She did everythingto join the band.She even dressed upas a boy.
But it didn’t work.
Janis was fed up of being discriminated against,so she started a war.
And as a girl, she usedthe power of flowersas weapons.
One day she coveredthe stage where the boys were about to play in flowers so it would give them hay fever.
All the audience could hear them sneezing!
The next day, she blocked the speakers with roses, so no one could hear them while they were jumping about on stage, It was really embarrassing.
The boyssurrendered.
For the first time,they let Janis go on stage and sing.
It was impressive.
Her powerful voice hypnotized everyone.
And she became one of the mostfamous female singers of all times.
