20 Dumb Quotes That Will Make You Unsure About Celebrities You Like

20. Mick Jagger

The Dumb Quote: "I'd rather be dead than singing 'Satisfaction' when I'm 45" Way back in the 1970s, during an interview, Mick Jagger, the legendary British rock 'n roll icon was asked how long The Rolling Stones would keep on performing. Jagger answered by telling the interviewer, quite dramatically, that he would "rather be dead than singing 'Satisfaction' when he's 45". Well not only was he still singing that song when he was 45, as well as many others from The Rolling Stones' catalogue of brilliant tracks, he's still singing them now, at the grand old age of 70. Does he need the money to pay for his indulgent rockstar lifestyle? Did he have a change of mind and decide that life doesn't end at 40? Whatever the change of heart, I bet he sure feels silly whenever he's reminded about it this quote. Then again, due to all of the years of substance abuse, it's fair to assume that he can't remember what he had for breakfast yesterday, let alone what he said over 40 years ago.
