Another legendary British rock star with a penchant for getting out of his mind was Mick Jagger, frontman to the Rolling Stones and frequently seen as one of the icons of the rock music scene. Jagger has been vocal in his opposition to the use of heroin, telling the Daily Telegraph, "Anyone taking heroin is thinking about taking heroin more than they're thinking about anything else ... when Keith (Richards) was taking heroin, it was very difficult to work." Yet heroin was just one of the many drugs Jagger himself was once noted for taking throughout his career, and he admits he still does them to this day. Jagger offered the following observation on the life of the drug-fuelled rock star: "You start out playing rocknroll so you can have sex and do drugs, but you end up doing drugs so you can still play rocknroll and have sex." At least he's still going today at the age of 71, which is some accomplishment.
