Ya know, after my response to you, I did some research.

You were right! She has admitted that the 2nd verse was indeed about Warren Beatty and that the rest of the song was about 2 other men, but not Jagger. She won't reveal who they are to this day. Weird....

 

 

After I posted that, I thought, well, I probably should've looked that up to see if I remembered that right, but I didn't. 

 

I just remember practically the whole world thought it was about Warren, but somewhere in the dark recesses of my memory, she said it wasn't (didn't know the 2nd verse WAS about him) and that she would never reveal the identity. 

 

TWO other men? Wow...a lot of vain men were floating around, huh? Woman Very Happy

😄 So true @jackiejenny 

It's really a long convoluted story that she's been telling over the years. Too long to state here. I'm still a bit confused. Lol

No. It wasn't James Taylor either, though there was speculation that it was him. She publicly denied it.
