John Mulaney<\/a>\u2019s 2019 special where he said Jagger was not \u201cnice\u201d when they worked together on Saturday Night Live and Jagger admitted fame has changed how he reacts to other people.<\/p>\nWhile Jagger insisted he has not seen the special, he told the New York Times: \u201cObviously it\u2019s not normal. It\u2019s not like most people\u2019s lives. It does affect you. You become disassociated. From other people. <\/p>\n
\u201cA lot of people in show business only hang around with people in show business, because they\u2019ve got something in common, they can relate to each other, and you get disassociated from what people might call \u2018real life\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
\t\t\t<\/p>\n
In his 2019 Kid Gorgeous at Radio City comedy special, Mulaney, 43, spoke about pitching SNL sketches to Jagger, who is a close friend of producer Lorne Michaels<\/p>\n
\nHe said: \u201cMy friends were all like, \u2018Is he nice?\u2019 No. Or maybe he is, for his version of life because he has a very different life. He\u2019s played to stadiums of 20,000 people cheering for him like he\u2019s a god for 50 years. That must change you as a person.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf you do that for 50 years, you\u2019re never again gonna be like, \u2018Um, does anyone have a laptop charger I could borrow?\u2019 You know that b******* way we all have to talk to get through life?\u201d<\/p>\n
\nWhile Mick Jagger admitted his fame has affected him, he insisted he actively tries to \u201cfight against it\u201d.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: \u201cI mean, you do fight against it. It\u2019s a conscious effort. It\u2019s quite easy, really. You go out and walk on the street on your own and do normal things, go and buy The New York Times. But, nevertheless, that\u2019s only temporary because psychologically your actual state of mind is permanently damaged.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cYour late 20s and early 30s is a very tough time for people in this business because it\u2019s a big ego trip, and you have to have a huge ego to do this. People that do this that don\u2019t have huge egos have huge problems because they have to manufacture a completely different [personality]. I have a friend whose standing joke is that I behave at a dinner party like I behave onstage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nHowever, Mick has tried to tone down his persona when he is off stage.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: \u201cIt\u2019s absurd what you do onstage. Of course I\u2019m not really like my stage persona\u2026 it\u2019s such an exaggerated version of me\u2026 And there are people in show business that never switch off. A lot of them are comedians, and sometimes they can\u2019t stop making jokes or they get depressed. That\u2019s a bit of a sweeping statement.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI think it comes with age. You\u2019ve heard all these stories about method actors. They take it to the absolute extreme, so they\u2019re like the character all the time, and then after the movie\u2019s over, they\u2019re still in character. It takes a long time to slough off the character. So which character do you go back to? Is he always going to carry some of that character in his \u2018true\u2019 character, whatever that is?<\/p>\n
\n \u201cThis is the show business dichotomy and it\u2019s something you learn to live with, and you always hope that you\u2019re a so-called normal person underneath.\u201d<\/p>\n
