Los Angeles: Singer Keith Richards has revealed that it was "very difficult" to be friend with Rolling Stones bandmate Mick Jagger due to his possessiveness.

"I've no doubt in retrospect that Mick was very jealous of me having other male friends," aceshowbiz.com quoted him as saying in his book.

"Maybe his exclusivity is bound up with his own siege mentality. Or maybe he thinks he is trying to protect me: 'What does that a**hole want from Keith?'
