U2 rocker Bono, who is an ardent fan of Mick Jagger, says he has become increasingly jealous of music legend's wrinkles.
Bono, 53, believes the Rolling Stones singer looks better than ever ahead of Jagger's 70th birthday, reported Daily Mirror.
"Mick looks a bit like Baryshnikov, like a ballet dancer from a different age. At the same time he still has a very beautiful face.
"The wrinkles that run through it now have made it even more beautiful. Why? Because he wears those wrinkles well. I love his wrinkles," he said.
U2 surpassed The Stones to claim the highest grossing concert tour of all time in 2011, making 479 million pounds from their 360 Degree jaunt, but Bono said he owes his business skills to Jagger.
"People despise Mick because they think he only thinks about money, but he is a businessman above all else. The fact is, he understands the business. Why? Because the Stones lost a lot of money in the beginning. I have to kneel in reverence to what he has achieved.
"What I like about him as a person is that he always speaks his mind openly and he never talks much about himself. He is not a narcissistic person," he said.
