I had nothing in common with them. I was absolutely focused on dance; I saw nothing else.”<\/span><\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong> Infamous Band Feuds From the ’60s and ’70s<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n But she also emphasized that she’s not worried about what other people might think of the age gap between her and Jagger.<\/p>\n “Why worry about other people’s opinions, stop at what they think of us,” she said. “Am I happy?
