Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger, once a scourge of the British establishment, received its ultimate accolade today when he was knighted by heir to the throne Prince Charles in a ceremony at Buckingham Palace.
“It was all rather wonderfully formal,” the 60-year-old rock n’roll icon said after the ceremony in which Charles tapped him lightly on each shoulder with a sword.
Asked if he believed that he deserved the top British establishment accolade, the grinning Jagger replied: “Yeah.”
The man who has fronted the legendary rock group for the past four decades, rejected suggestions that he had sold out to the establishment against which he had railed for so long. “I don’t really think the establishment as we knew it exists any more,” he said with a slight toss of the head.
But showing at least a residue of rebellion, Jagger shunned the traditional top hat and tails, opting for a long black leather coat, purple scarf and sports shoes. He took along his 92-year-old father Joe and two of his daughters to share the occasion.
The award puts Jagger on a ceremonial par with pop knights Sir Elton John and Sir Paul McCartney.
