The rock’n’roll legend, Mick Jagger, gave his admirers a glimpse of summer vacation from the Portuguese shore with a relatively calm shot, captioned simply, “Took a summer break in Portugal – a beautiful place to explore!” The photograph was taken in a courtyard where the sunlight could intensify the charm of its stone arches, uplifted by some bright azulejo tiles, and there stood Jagger looking completely charming in his patterned shirt and extremely laid back.

As soon as this post banger the internet, it became the center of admiration worldwide, many marveling at the eternal coolness that Jagger has, one fan lamented, “Why is everything you do just so cool?” while the second said, “my goals in life is being like this at 82”. The comment section became a mini United Nations forum, with fans from various nations engaging with each other in an attempt to seduce the rock legend into visiting their hometown. Of course, another user in Portuguese exclaimed, “Come to Madeira Island, it’s very beautiful,” while the Argentine fan replied jokingly, “Come to Argentina to do this and you won’t be able to walk a step!”
Other comments remarked on this rocker’s agelessness, with a Spanish admirer stating, “I love this guy… I want to be like him at his age.” Very much so, this was said across languages, becoming a language barrier in his status as a global icon. Even the architecture got some praise from the platforms user, saying, “Picture #6 – the painting is stunning,” meaning that every little detail of Jagger’s post was under the microscope by his proud fans.

That unguarded shot from the rock star’s holidays became a hot topic for discussion, part of it due to appreciation for culture and part of it for the usual Jagger flash. Whether he is looking at the beautiful historic tiles or just enjoying a wander through pretty streets, this 80-year-old icon still embodies the spirit of adventure that has been highlighted for some 60 years. And judging by the comments, there hardly seems to be an alternative against this in the minds of fans; they series with enjoyment to see their idol soaking in the little things in life between grand stadium tours and intense studio sessions. It also serves as a reminder that even the likes of Jagger need downtime; yet somehow, he makes relaxed look so cool.
