Retire? I don't want to talk about it, says Rod as he turns 80

January 10, 2025

Singer Rod Stewart, who helped British rock conquer the world with a string of megahits, turns 80 today - with no plans to slow down.

Retire? I don't want to talk about it, says Rod as he turns 80

Stewart, with his distinctive spiky blond hair and raspy voice, dominated pop charts during the '70s and '80s, notching up more than 250 million record sales worldwide.

He also made headlines for a prolific love life that included relationships with a string of models and actresses, including Britt Ekland.

Despite his landmark birthday, Stewart has no plans to retire. "I love what I do, and I do what I love. I'm fit, have a full head of hair and can run 100m in 18 seconds," he said last year.

The star will play the legends slot at the famed Glastonbury music festival this summer.
