Mick Jagger Admits He Forgot About Lost Duet with John Lennon

“Extra” sat down with music legend Mick Jagger for a rare one-on-one interview, where the star opened up about marriage, his rock-star lifestyle and his unexpected idols.

The Rolling Stones just wrapped a grueling 2-year tour, but at 64, Mick said he was up to the challenge.

“I’m glad I got through the two years without any sort of major physical problems,” he admitted. “I was just born with a lot of energy and so far it’s kept me going.”

Mick also joked about his notorious slender frame, saying, “I have to eat and eat and have a few beers to keep my 140 pounds going!”

Next month, “The Very Best of Mick Jagger” hits stores. The album includes a piece of rock n’ roll history, a long lost track he recorded with Beatles icon John Lennon. Incredibly, Mick admitted he forgot he even recorded the piece!

“I did, actually,” he confessed. “Then I found a copy and said, ‘That’s really good, you know?’”

Mick is also confessing he’s a fan of superstar Justin Timberlake.

“I was watching a Justin Timberlake concert last night on the television, and he was really working it,” the legendary performer said.

As to who should play him if a movie was made about his life, he said, “I’m sure my son could do it really well…he looks just like me when I was 20.”

The twice-divorced star finally talked marriage, laughing, “I haven’t thought about it this week. This week is a really busy week.”


NEXT: Josie Maran the First Casuality of 'Dancing'

 

I already have the very best of Mick Jagger Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile on Mainstreet.

WHAT HAPPENED TO GOOD REPORTING?
Denzel Washington and his family visited
the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in San Antonio,Texas (BAMC) recently. This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the United States, especially burn victims. There are some buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a hotel where soldiers’ families can stay,for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled most of the time. While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build. He took his check book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it. Other stars make front page news with their ridiculous antics and Denzel Washington’s patriotism doesn’t even make page 3 inany newspaper except the local newspaper in San Antonio??

The interview was rewarding.
