Mick Jagger Hates Getting Older: 'You Forget Everything'

Mick Jagger, the iconic frontman of The Rolling Stones, recently shared his candid thoughts on aging during an interview.

At 82, Jagger expressed a profound dissatisfaction with getting older, stating, 'There's nothing good about it.' He believes that age does not bring wisdom but rather leads to forgetting what one has learned, lamenting the loss of his own accumulated insights. He also noted the physical limitations that come with age, remarking that while some activities are still possible, they must be approached with significantly more caution than before.

The legendary musician also touched upon how his enduring fame impacts his perception of the world. He described his life as 'not normal' and acknowledged that prolonged celebrity can lead to a sense of detachment from ordinary people and experiences. To counteract this, Jagger stated he makes an effort to engage in everyday activities by walking on the street alone.

Furthermore, Jagger and his bandmate Keith Richards have been exploring the use of artificial intelligence in their music. They recently utilized deepfake technology for the music video of their song 'In the Stars,' which depicted younger versions of the band members. Richards referred to this as their 'brushing with AI,' humorously wishing he still looked that way, but suggesting such technology is best suited for music videos.
