Rod Stewart (10 January 1945, Highgate, London, England, UK) movies list and roles

Instead of getting married again, I'm going to find a woman I don't like and just give her a house.

[on looking young] The secret is to moisturise the face. I've been doing that since I was 17 years old.

[on Brigitte Bardot] She's the only woman I've ever had a sexual fantasy about. With me, looks come first, and she's everything a woman should be. She's blonde and beautiful, she's got the most incredible legs--et cetera, et cetera. And she's French as well. Show less «

[on his former wife, Rachel Hunter, shortly after their break-up] She was the first woman who left me.

[on being awarded the CBE] It's a marvellous occasion. We're the only country in the world to honour the common man.

Elvis was the king. No doubt about it. People like myself, Mick Jagger and all the others only followed in his footsteps.

[on his move to Los Angeles, California] The British taxation in 1975 was absolutely crippling. I think about 84% of my income was going in income tax. And I wasn't inspired by the music scene in '73, '74, '75 either. Show less «

I don't believe you should flaunt your wealth like Liberace or something.

I don't know anybody that doesn't like being famous and anybody that doesn't like it shouldn't have thought about being famous in the first place. I think it's absolutely marvelous being famous. I love it. I like walking down the street and being recognised. I don't go out of my way to be recognised. I mean I don't go walking down the street in a pink satin suit. Show less «

I don't think people expect Bruce Springsteen to come out in a pink satin jacket, but Rod Stewart they do. And I like doing it, I don't wear it just because I think I have to. I'm a very flamboyant person. Show less «

I don't mind buying one round of drinks, but I am bloody well not going to buy another. I don't miss a penny. I get a daily statement about where every penny is going and every investment. I wouldn't say I worry about money, but you never know what's around the corner. I worry more about my children's views on money sometimes. They've grown up privileged and it's an ongoing battle. They know the price of everything and the value of nothing. Show less «

I've been lucky. I couldn't deal with it if I'd run out of barnet. Imagine me with a Bobby Charlton comb-over.

My age group and our age group, the Stones [The Rolling Stones] and Elton [Elton John], it's hard to get on the radio. And it's hard to buy records now 'cos you can't buy 'em anywhere. My audience like to go in and buy records. Show less «

[on Mick Jagger] I've got utmost respect for Mick and the boys. I love 'em to death. He's a great singer, he's one of the greatest. He's not quite as good as me. Show less «

I've always looked on myself as one of a band and never sought a solo career.

It's always been a spiritual home, but as I don't live there I shouldn't comment on Scottish independence. If it's good for the Scots I'm happy. I hope it's not a lot of kids thinking 'Braveheart (1995)'. I'd hate to see the union broken after all these years. And I don't think it will happen. Show less «

I'm a romantic and like a one-on-one situation, candlelight and foreplay, all the old-fashioned things.

There's never been much rivalry between any of our generation - well, maybe me and Elton [Elton John] but that's friendly.

[on Mick Jagger] Mick's a fine blues singer, but technically not as good as me. He's made the best of what he's got, but I don't think he could do standards and he may not want to. Show less «

Every three years, Model Railroader puts me on their cover, which is better than Rolling Stone.

[on Elton John] The second-best rock singer ever.

[on Tom Waits] He's one of my favorite all-time songwriters.

[on "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?"] It certainly wasn't one of the best songs I've written. It transformed me overnight into a sex symbol I suppose, for want of a better word, and everything that goes with that, and for a long time I believed everything I read about myself in the papers. People, when we do live shows, they love that song, everywhere around the world. Show less «

I believe I'm a romantic. I can cry at sad films and I like candle-lit dinners. All depends what you describe as being a romantic.

I've got a lot of English blood in me, not too much English blood, but I consider myself to be a fairly good lover, I've had no complaints. I've had no compliments either. Show less «

When Scotland play England, I don't care if it's schoolboys or what it is, it's very serious.

[on the World Cup in 1986] If that had been an English goal when Maradona [Diego Maradona] handballed it, everyone would have said it was OK, it's just that it was on the other team, but I've got a feeling that none of the British teams could have won it, maybe it's about time we had a Great Britain team. It's only an idea. Show less «

Being a football fan and playing Wembley, it's not like Wham! - I don't think are real football fans - but it means a hell of a lot to me.

[on the suggestion his tax exile status could have delayed his knighthood] Mick [Mick Jagger] doesn't pay taxes here, and Tom [Tom Jones] lives in America. If my time comes, it will. And if it doesn't, I'm not bothered. Are you kidding? I never expected a CBE. Show less «

People said I went astray with Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? and they're absolutely right. I jumped on a bandwagon, but everyone loves it. It's my novelty song. I try to give the audience what they want, and sod the critics. Show less «
