About this listen
Mick Jagger, the eternal Rolling Stone at 82, just made headlines with a heartwarming surprise that had Londons theater crowd roaring louder than a stadium gig. On Sunday at the Sondheim Theatre, during Judi Denchs conversational show Whats The Play? Whats The Part? with Gyles Brandreth, Jagger crashed the stage unannounced, fulfilling the 91-year-old Oscar winners lifelong dream of sharing it with him. According to Brandreth via the PA news agency, the rock icon delivered a beautiful speech praising Denchs legendary career from Olivier to DiCaprio, while she repaid him by reciting a steamy 17th-century love poem, The Parting. The audience erupted like nothing Brandreth had seen in 60 theater years, with surprise guests like Jim Broadbent and Dominic West adding star power. Brandreth revealed he secretly invited Jagger that week after learning of Denchs wish, and the frontman jumped at it, proving chivalry never dies in rock royalty.
In family news with real biographical weight, Jagger became a great-grandfather for the first time over the weekend when granddaughter Assisi Jackson welcomed her baby, as reported by IMDb. No name or photos yet, but this milestone cements his sprawling dynasty at an age when most legends slow down.
Elsewhere, whispers of Jaggers ironclad fitness obsession resurfaced via RadarOnline on December 2, detailing his brutal six-day-a-week regimen of ballet, kickboxing, yoga, cycling and meditation, all to outrun the reaper and fuel Stones tours. Sources say he fights death daily with athlete-level discipline, spotlighted in Isadora Puiggenes new book Pacto Con El Diablo. Meanwhile, the 1991 IMAX concert film Rolling Stones At the Max, starring Jagger and the classic lineup, wrapped screenings at spots like Bullock Texas State History Museum through December 14 and Saint Louis Science Center into late December, packing houses with Satisfaction and Start Me Up on mega-screens. No fresh social buzz or business moves popped, but Jaggers blending showbiz magic, family growth and timeless grind keeps him the pulse of rock immortality.
