Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger turns 65 on Saturday

BY JIM FARBER
DAILY NEWS MUSIC CRITIC

Happy birthday, Mick Jagger - Saturday, you'll be old enough to qualify for Medicare.

Geriatric Jagger is turning 65 - five months before Keith Richards joins him in that craggy company.

That brings the total age for all four remaining Stones - Jagger, Richards, Charlie Watts and Ron Wood - to 257.

Then again, Mick can take consolation in the fact that he still has his hair, not to mention the 28-inch waistline of a teen. He also remains spry enough to command a stage for two hours, moving like a crazed chicken all the while.

Jagger proved this yet again with the release of the rapturously received new movie "Shine a Light."

Directed by Martin Scorsese, the flick captures a recent Stones' performance from the city's Beacon Theater that's as highly caffeinated as anything Mick and the group offered 20, or even 30, years, ago.

While they no longer sell huge amounts of albums, the Stones remain the biggest concert draw in any year they choose to tour.

Though Jagger famously said he would sooner die than play "Satisfaction" when he's 40, he and the band have opened many shows in their fifth decade with that very number.

He's had far too many lovers to count, sired seven children by four different women, and bedded enough supermodels to fill a Brazilian beach.

He's reportedly dating stylist L'Wren Scott, 25 years his junior. Jagger continues to generate enough income to have an estate worth $463 million.

All this activity hasn't stopped some people from ranking on the most obvious signs of his age - those canyon-like wrinkles of his.

British jazz singer George Melly once asked Mick why he's so lined. "Laugh lines," Jagger said, to which Melly replied, "Nothing's that funny."

After every tour, reporters invariably ask Jagger when he'll retire. The skinny star remains mum.

"I'm sure it will happen one day," he said recently. "It hasn't happened for the moment. We don't look at the clouds of tomorrow through the sunshine of today."

Here is a more "flattering" article Wink:

Sir Mick ranks high in sexy stakes


Mick Jagger is still officially sexy as he reaches the milestone of 65.

He came seventh in a poll of Britain's sexiest older men, while Mamma Mia! The Movie star Pierce Brosnan came in at number one.

Sir Mick also came in at number six in a style poll, ranked marginally ahead of Prince Charles - and beaten by Prince Michael of Kent.

Jonathan Ross came in first place.

To mark the rocker's 65th birthday, online information source MSN Entertainment polled more than 2,000 people for their opinions on the nation's favourite sexy older men at http://entertainment.uk.msn.com.

MSN entertainment editor Mike Lok said: "As a rock musician, you can't get more famous than Sir Mick Jagger.

"Whilst the 'flaming lips' slips in the sexy stakes, he is still a music icon that people can't get enough of.

"We look forward to seeing Mick perform for many years to come, Happy Birthday Sir Mick!"

Also appearing in the Britain's Sexiest Older Man list are Sean Connery in second and Rod Stewart in fifth. Sir Paul McCartney came sixth, with Tom Jones eighth and Ozzy Osbourne in ninth place.
