Sir Mick Jagger asked Maroon 5 to edit him out of their latest video

Sir Mick Jagger has revealed that he personally told Maroon 5 to edit him out of their video for 'Moves Like Jagger' because he featured excessively in it. 

The Rolling Stones superstar told The Times newspaper that he felt the band were overpowering their own image with his own and said:

"It's kind of odd. 'Moves Like Jagger' is seriously catchy. I can sing it for you if you want, but I'll spare you that. I knew all about it, it wasn't like a surprise to me. I know the band, I know Christina, I know the video director, and they kept sending me the video cuts with me in it."

"There was far too much of me in the first one, I was going, 'What about the rest of the band!' So I cut out a bit."

He also let slip that Maroon 5 have even asked him to make a guest appearance at one of their upcoming gigs although he's unlikely to accept the invitation:

"Maroon 5 asked me to come and do this show with them! What am I going to do? Sing it? I don't think I'm going to be there."
