This statement about Harry Styles was made by the lead vocalist and one of the founding members of the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, in an interview with The London Times. The interview was meant to solicit support for the band’s 60th-anniversary tour, which is coming soon. Jagger shortened his comment by saying he admires Harry and that they both have “an easy relationship.” After this comment, he went on to quickly state all the reasons why both of them cannot be compared

“I mean, I used to wear a lot more eye make-up than him. Come on; I was much more androgynous,” he said. “And he doesn’t have a voice like mine or move on stage like me; he just has a superficial resemblance to my younger self, which is fine — he can’t help that.”
