DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 25 (UPI) -- Mick Jagger canceled plans Tuesday to join British Prime Minister David Cameron at the World Economic Forum, saying he was being "used as a political football."
The 68-year-old Rolling Stones lead singer, now Sir Mick, left Switzerland, releasing a statement giving his reasons for the change of plans, the Daily Mirror reported. A friend told the British newspaper Jagger, who studied at the London School of Economics before launching his music career, was interested in promoting British business at the economics meeting in Davos.
