- Mick Jagger’s health problems forced the Rolling Stones to postpone their North American tour
Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger will undergo heart surgery this week following the postponement of the band’s North American tour for medical reasons, according to US reports.
The Drudge Report website, citing unidentified sources, said Jagger, 75, would undergo surgery this week in New York to replace a heart valve. New York Post’s Page Six website, also citing unidentified sources, said the surgery would involve placing a stent in the singer’s heart.
Representatives for Jagger in the United States did not return requests for comment. A spokesman for the British band in London declined to comment on the Drudge Report article.
The band on Saturday announced it was postponing all dates on its tour of the United States and Canada to give Jagger time to receive medical treatment.
