Mick Jagger's surprise comeback at the Oscars: Is the star limping?

Mick Jagger, the iconic frontman of the Rolling Stones, caused a sensation during the Oscars. After the Stones' European tour was abruptly stopped and fans were offended, Jagger staged a comeback. Observers reported that the 81-year-old had a slight limp when he took the stage to present the Grammy for best song. This was taken from the fansite iorr.org, which announced the tour cancellation without the Rolling Stones commenting.

The music giant's performance was met with a standing ovation as Jagger brought his humor to the stage. "They wanted Bob Dylan, but Bob didn't want to," he joked, before explaining that the producers were looking for someone younger - "Hey, I'm younger than Bob Dylan!" This mix of charisma and wit embodied the spirit of the evening as Jagger presented the award for the hit “El Mal” from “Emilia Pérez.” Viewers were thrilled, and Jagger offered a humble thank you: "You're so kind. I'm honored to present this award," PopCulture.com reported.

Tour cancellation and surprise appearance

The abrupt cancellation of the Rolling Stones tour unsettled fans who had hoped for a concert in Vienna. Many are now speculating whether Jagger's health problems, which lead to his slouching gait, were the reason for the cancellation. Despite the uncertainty, the Oscar appearance remains a shining moment in his career and a sign that the veteran star is taking the stage playfully and charmingly, even in uncertain times.
