Did you know?Before finding fame in music, he studied at the London School of Economics with the intention of becoming a journalist or politician.
Mick Jagger turned the rock frontman into a performance artist. His strutting, pouting style shocked parents in the 1960s. It became the model for generations of singers. With Keith Richards he wrote songs that captured danger, desire and swagger. The Rolling Stones outlasted almost every band of their era. They are still filling stadiums decades later. Behind the wild image is a sharp businessman who helped turn the Stones into a global brand. His energy on stage seems endless.
Sir Michael Philip Jagger (born 26 July 1943) is an English musician, songwriter, and film producer known as the lead singer and founder member of the Rolling Stones.
