Hey dad — this one’s for you!
Who da thunk that Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood would one day be the poster boys for good health? Well thanks to Ronnie’s wife, Jo, the everlasting band might last even longer.
Jo Wood has convinced the geriatric rock stars to go organic! She discovered the healthier approach to eating after being diagnosed with a perforated appendix, and from there persuaded the wives of Ronnie’s bandmates to join her on the organic bandwagon. Jo said:
“Before and after surgery I was sticking to an organic diet. A herbalist called Gerald Green explained how chemicals in our food destroy our immune systems. I was determined to eat only organic food if it was the last thing I did.
The Rolling Stones used to tease me when I preached to them. Keith Richards would say, ‘Jo, you’re addicted to organic food.’ That made me giggle. But while he was laughing at me his wife Patti was preparing him organic food.
Mick Jagger and his ex-wife Jerry Hall eat organic now. After Charlie Watts recovered from throat cancer he really appreciated the health benefits too. I can’t wait to get my hands on Penny Lancaster and Rod Stewart!”
Penny and Rod — if I were you I’d buy some Whole Foods stock ASAP!! Come on, if this woman can get Keith Richards eating organic then I’m pretty sure she can do just about anything!

Do you ever feel like your apartment is too cramped? Ever say to yourself, “Gosh I could totally use my own island?” Well if you’re Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie the thought has more than crossed your mind. It’s been reported that the famous duo just bought one of the exclusive islands that make up the super-development, The World In Dubai.
