“What a pain to get old,” Mick Jagger once sang. The artist Radio Lac celebrates his 80th birthday on July 26, 2023, but the British leader of the Rolling Stones does not seem to show any signs of old age.
True to form, the overexcited showman intends to celebrate his birthday as it should be: by organizing a huge party in south-west London, according to the British tabloids.
Bad boy, ultimate sex symbol, unequaled rockstar: Mick Jagger made headlines for decades, between provocations, excesses and conquests. And he continues to unleash the crowds with his diabolical swaying on stage.
With the Rolling Stones, he recently toured Europe in celebration of the band’s 60th anniversary. The tour ended last year, for the first time without drummer Charlie Watts, who died in 2021.
Still in great shape, Mick Jagger still underwent heart surgery in 2019. But his strict diet of yoga, herbal juices, fruits and vitamins kept his slender figure and shape intact. physical.
Swinging London
With titles like “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”, “Gimme Shelter”, “Sympathy for the Devil” and “Not Fade Away”, the Rolling Stones contributed to the cultural explosion of the 1960s in the United Kingdom.
Mick Jagger and the Stones then embody Swinging London, adored, chased by girls and closely watched by the police. For Jagger, a life 2000 light years from where he comes from, as he sings on “2000 Light Years from Home”.
Michael Philip Jagger was born into an uneventful middle-class family on July 26, 1943 in Dartford. Son of a hairdresser and a physical education teacher, he was not predestined for a career as a musician.
Entering the prestigious London School of Economics in 1961, he quickly got tired of finance courses – which would however sharpen his business sense – and already preferred the rhythm’n blues of Chuck Berry.
“Satisfaction”
He began playing with his childhood friend Keith Richards in 1960 and formed The Rollin’ Stones in 1962, which would become The Rolling Stones in 1963, with Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts.
In 1965, the group released “Satisfaction” which propelled Jagger & co to glory, catching up with the notoriety of the Beatles, of which they became somewhat despite themselves the rivals, their image of “bad boys” opposing that of “nice boys”. of the Fab Four, according to cleverly orchestrated marketing.
The group becomes as famous for its escapades on the stage as outside, between drug consumption and unbridled sex life.
eight times daddy
In 2003, Elizabeth II will carefully avoid ennobling Mick Jagger in person “for services rendered to music”, leaving Charles to dub the one who was “the establishment’s public enemy number one”.
But for a long time, Mick Jagger the millionaire (his fortune is estimated at some 310 million pounds in 2021, according to the Sunday Times) is no longer the “bad boy” of his debut.
“Sir Mick” is often seen at Lord’s, watching the England cricket team play.
He has been in a relationship since 2014 with American dancer Melanie Hamrick, whose pregnancy was announced in July 2016. The rocker then became a father for the eighth time, having already had seven children from four previous relationships.
