THE SAME OLD STORY: Mick Jagger beds TWO Swedish beauties in 48 hours after Rolling Stones party in Stockholm...

 Party animal: Mick Jagger outside the Grand Hotel, Stockholm

Mick Jagger has moved on from his fling with a young ballet dancer – by this week bedding two girls in 48 hours.
The 70-year-old rocker wooed the women after meeting them at a party following a Rolling Stones concert in Stockholm on Tuesday.
Sir Mick lived up to his rock-and-roll reputation by chatting up the glamorous duo and getting their numbers.
 He then invited them back to his room at Stockholm’s Grand Hotel at different times during the course of two days.
A pal said: “It was typical Mick. He spotted the girls in a bar and quickly charmed them over a couple of drinks.
"By the end of the trip both had been back to his room. It doesn’t take much imagination to guess what went on.”
Mick’s Stockholm antics show his recent romance with 27-year-old Melanie Hamrick was just a fling.
He was pictured last month with New York-based dancer Melanie on the balcony of the Dolder Grand Hotel, Zurich, only 12 weeks after the death of his long-term partner L’Wren Scott, 49.
The tragic fashion designer and model had been found hanged in her New York apartment after ­committing suicide.
Mick’s double fling came as the Stones were in Stockholm rounding off the European leg of their 14 On Fire World Tour in the city’s Tele2 Arena.
The after-show party, with guests including One Direction’s Harry Styles, started in the Grand and moved on to a nearby Abba-themed restaurant.

Mick worked his charm on the women when he later returned to the hotel bar. A fellow partygoer said: “Mick has a natural swagger and ­presence about him which wasn’t lost on the two girls.
“They were both in their thirties, voluptuous, and very attractive – and were clearly keen on him.
“Over the course of his visit they both ended up in his hotel room. He has been making the most of his time on the road – and judging by this, is still as rock and roll as ever.”
Mick’s fling with Melanie had angered L’Wren’s estranged sister Jan Shane – who accused father-of-seven Mick of being “a bigger part of her troubles” than previously thought.
She said of the pictures of the pair together: “They really make me wonder what Mick is thinking and feeling.
“His daughter says he is still heartbroken and devastated about losing my sister and then you see these photos – he will never change.”
But sources close to the star insist Jan, whose ­relationship with L’Wren broke down years ago, knew little about her sister’s life. And they say is Mick is simply trying to enjoy life in the wake of his ­devastating loss.
L’Wren, who had suffered from depression, was found dead in the New York ­apartment bought for her by Mick on March 17. It was later confirmed she had committed suicide.
She left the apartment and all her other valuables, worth around £5.4m, to Mick. She left nothing to her brother Randall, Bambrough who helped make the funeral arrangements.

Fearne Cotton - Fearne Cotton marries Jesse Wood...

Fearne Cotton has got married to Jesse Wood.
The BBC radio presenter, 32, and the 37-year-old rocker, son of Rolling Stones star Ronnie Wood, tied the knot in a low key ceremony at a registry office in London today (04.07.14).
The duo exchanged vows in front of a small number of guests, including Ronnie, 67.
The blonde beauty, whose mother Krissy Findlay died of an accidental overdose in 2005, walked down the aisle with her father, Mick Cotton, in a heavily embellished, white Pucci wedding gown, trimmed with sparkly silver beads, after getting ready for her special day at The Ritz London hotel.
The couple, who have a 17-moth-old son Rex together, announced their engagement last Christmas and have been together since meeting on holiday in Ibiza in 2011.
Fearne recently admitted she couldn't wait to marry Jesse, who has daughter Lola, eight, and son Arthur, 12, from his first marriage to Tilly Wood.
She told the August issue of Red magazine: ''I can't wait to be a wife. It just feels really solid. I want to have the same surname. I want to feel like we've done it properly.''
Fearne was previously engaged to skateboarder Jesse Jenkins, but the couple called off their engagement and split nine months later in 2011.

Ronnie Wood pays tribute to Bobby Womack ...




Ronnie Wood has paid tribute to the late soul singer Bobby Womack.
The 70-year-old soul music star - who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009 and enjoyed a career spanning seven decades - passed away in his sleep on Friday (27.06.14).
The Rolling Stones rocker took to Twitter to express his grief and recalled how the singer's voice often reduced him to tears.
He wrote on the social networking site this morning (28.06.14): ''I'm so sad to hear about my friend Bobby Womack ~ the man who could make you cry when he sang has brought tears to my eyes with his passing.''
The late singer, who was in the process of recording a new album tentatively titled 'The Best Is Yet to Come,' with rumoured contributions by Stevie Wonder, Rod Stewart and Snoop Dogg, began his career as a member of Curtis Womack and the Womack Brothers with his brothers Curtis, Harry, Cecil and Friendly, Jr., but they changed their name to the Valentinos shortly after they scored their first record deal in 1960.
The Rolling Stones' cover of their track 'It's All Over Now' topped the UK charts in 1964, just one month after the original version was released.
The 'If You Think You're Lonely Now' hitmaker sought treatment in rehab in the 1980s for drug addiction, and later battled a series of health problems, including colon cancer, diabetes, pneumonia and showed early signs of Alzheimer's disease.
His 2012 release 'The Bravest Man in the Universe' was voted one of the 50 Best Albums of the year and he admitted he thought his songs were getting better with age.
He said at the time: ''You know more at 65 than you did at 25. I understand the songs much better now. It's not about 14 Rolls Royces and two Bentleys. Even if this album never sells a nickel, I know I put my best foot forward.''
A spokesperson for the 'Across 110th Street' hitmaker's record label XL Recordings told RollingStone.com that his cause of death is currently unknown.

On June 28, 2014, the Rolling Stones performed "It's All Over Now" in tribute to the late Bobby Womack at the Stones' concert in Werchter, Belgium, at the TW Classic Festival, according to the Rolling Stones' official website. The concert was part of the Rolling Stones' "14 on Fire" tour. Bobby and Shirley Womack co-wrote "It's All Over Now," which became the Rolling Stones' first No. 1 hit in the U.K. in 1964. Bobby Womack (who died at the age of 70 on June 27, 2014) was particularly friendly for decades with Rolling Stones guitarists Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards. Womack collaborated with Wood, on Wood's 1975 solo album "Now Look."

Sir Mick Jagger has been inspired to open a Rolling Stones museum after visiting the Abba centre in Sweden...

A Rolling Stones museum is set to open in London.
Frontman Sir Mick Jagger was so inspired by the interactive tribute to pop group ABBA in their home town of Stockholm, Sweden, that he plans to set up a similar venue for his own rock 'n' roll band in the English capital.
According to the Daily Star newspaper, ABBA singer Bjorn Ulvaeus said: ''I had heard he wanted to build a similar thing in London. That is why he wanted to come here and look. He is planning a Rolling Stones museum.
''It was an inspirational visit. Mick has saved lots of clothes which they can display. He had thousands of questions. Mick took loads of photos.''
As well as iconic tour costumes from their lengthy career, the Rolling Stones museum is likely to include instruments and special memorabilia courtesy of band members Mick, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood.
Mick, 70, was driven to the Abba venue in a blacked-out Mercedes to keep his after-hours visit under wraps. He reportedly performed with a singing hologram as Bjorn took him around the museum.
