Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger turned 80 on Wednesday. The singer is still packing arenas and shows no signs of slowing down.

Jagger underwent a heart valve replacement in 2019 but has maintained an otherwise healthy lifestyle of kick-boxing, cycling and performing.

The band completed its 14-date “Sixty” tour last year, though they had to cancel one date when Jagger caught Covid-19. The tour marked the band’s 60th anniversary.

The remaining band members — all but Charlie Watts, who died in 2021 — are working on a new album in honor of the late drummer. It will reportedly feature Paul McCartney and former Stones bassist Bill Wyman, who left the band in 1993.
