Mick Jagger

July 26 marks 70 years of living rock legend, the leader of the cult the Rolling Stones Mick Jagger. Despite its venerable age, Mick still manages to light better than most of his younger colleagues, although in recent years trying to stick to a healthier lifestyle than ever before. It's amazing how much energy and drive emits the skinny Brit on stage and off - somehow he manages to give concerts to raise grandchildren attend the fashion event with her daughter-model of Georgia, as well as act as a composer, songwriter and producer of documentary films .





A few days before the anniversary Jagger and the Rolling Stones once again surprised everyone by releasing an unscheduled album on iTunes. Their energy is truly inexhaustible! After this somehow ashamed to even admit the thought that I'm tired, and I'm too lazy to write a post for VeV.ru :) So I suggest to you the 10 interesting facts about the most energetic rock musician of all time:

3. One of the best songs of the Rolling Stones «Sympathy For The Devil» was created under the influence of Russian literature - Jagger admitted that in writing it presented himself Woland of "The Master and Margarita" by Bulgakov. We can only guess how the song would have sounded if Mick imagined himself, for example, Rodion Raskolnikov or Kisoy Vorobyaninov.



4. Mick Jagger takes the 4th place in the list of the 100 sexiest actors of all time, according to the television channel VH1. Do not be surprised if the results were determined by audience vote, and SMSes sent everyone who has even a passing connection with the rocker.

5. This paragraph is a logical continuation of the previous one. Jagger 7 children from 4 women: the daughter of Marsha Hunt - Karis Jagger Hunt, daughter of Bianca de Macias - Jade Jagger and 4 children from Jerry Hall - daughter Elizabeth Jagger, the son of James Jagger's daughter Georgia May Jagger and Jagger's son Gabriel. In addition, he has a son by Luciana Gimenez Lucas Jagger, who was born in 1999. Good for you, Mick!



6. When Mick met with Keith Richards, they were 4 years old. Crucial meeting took place in the playground. But, surprisingly, the future rockers did not immediately make plans to take over the world and carry out sound check for a concert in the sandbox. This happened after graduation.



7. On the famous Jagger's voice timbre affected childhood trauma. On the basketball game Mick so hard to hit an opponent that has bitten off a piece of language. After that, he could not speak for a week, and when it could still, sounded different. But it is not necessary to repeat the experiment in the hope of a career as a rocker!



8. When Mick Jagger gave his son to school, where he studied himself, his teachers were happy to see him. But students just shrugged - "Oh, this old dude from the Beatles." Who is it that said about the British education ?;)
