00:00 Mick Jagger is celebrating his 80th birthday, so here are 4 anecdotes you may not know about the famous Rolling Stones singer.
00:05 Well, since 2003, he's been called "Sir Mick Jagger"
00:08 since he was anointed by Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace for "service rendered to music".
00:13 That day, Elizabeth II was sick and could not be present,
00:16 but in reality, Her Majesty would have refused to anoint the singer, whom she did not appreciate much.
00:21 Why ? Because Mick Jagger was very close to Margaret, his sister,
00:25 and they would even have had a bond, a bad influence for the royal princess, according to the Queen.
00:29 Then, the leader of the Rolling Stones is a gymnastics fanatic,
00:32 and he is very good in this discipline since his father was a gym teacher.
00:35 Besides, his father ran a TV show on gymnastics in 1957,
00:40 and Mick Jagger even made appearances there.
00:42 Before becoming one of the most famous rockers of all time,
00:45 he first wanted to go into an accounting career.
00:48 Yes, you heard right, Mick Jagger took a course at the London School of Economics,
00:52 but finally gave up to devote himself to music with his childhood friend, Keith Richards.
00:57 And to finish, know that at 30, the singer was already thinking about his musical retirement,
01:01 and thought that he would soon be too old to sing rock.
01:04 In 1975, he said in an interview for People magazine,
01:07 "Rather die than sing Satisfaction at 45."
01:10 Today, he is 80, and the Rolling Stones still made a tour last year for the group's 60th anniversary.
