BRUSSELS, September 19 (RIA Novosti) - Rock legend Mick Jagger has become a European Commission advisor on Internet shopping, La Libre Belgique said Friday.

The 65 year-old Rolling Stones' lead singer, along with top European businessmen including Apple boss Steve Jobs and Fiat chief John Elkann, recently attended a forum in Brussels to discuss how to make online music sales easier.

Jagger, a trained accountant, was invited to take part in the event by his old friend, the EU competition commissioner Neelie Kroes.

The participants are due to assist in drafting a brief report for the European Commission and submit their own proposals on the issue by 15 October 2008. The commission will then draw up its own report based on these proposals.
