- Miriam Margolyes said that Mick Jagger was very "smug" whenever they met.
- In her new memoir, she wrote that she met him through model Sophie Dahl, who dated him.
Miriam Margolyes is revealing what she really thinks of Mick Jagger in her new memoir, "Oh Miriam! Stories from an Extraordinary Life."
In the chapter "Always Be A Cunt," Margolyes recounts stories related to female genitalia, including an anecdote about starring in a London stage adaptation of "The Vagina Monologues" alongside veteran actor Siân Philips and model Sophie Dahl in 2001.
Margolyes writes that at the time, Dahl, who is the granddaughter of author Roald Dahl, was dating the Rolling Stones frontman, having met him through his daughters, Elizabeth and Jade Jagger.
"Every evening Mick Jagger would pick her up at the stage door, looking like a debauched fifty-eight-year-old angel in tight jeans, his face perpetually grumpy," the "Harry Potter" actor writes.
"I'd never had much time for Mick Jagger but Sophie loved him so desperately that Siân and I were worried about her," Margolyes continues.
The actor goes on: "She may have been voicing a vagina in the production but if anything, he was the cunt. He was always so smug and a smug cunt is a turn-off."
Representatives for Jagger did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Elsewhere in her memoir, which was published in the UK on Thursday, Margolyes also criticizes Steve Martin and Arnold Schwarzenegger, saying that she has had bad experiences on set with both actors.
In Martin's case, Margolyes says he was "horrid" to her on the set of "Little Shop of Horrors" during scenes in which he had to slam a door in her face.
"I was hit all day by doors opening in my face; repeatedly punched, slapped, and knocked down by an unlovely and unapologetic Steve Martin – perhaps he was method acting – and came home grumpy with a splitting headache," Margolyes writes.
In another passage, the 82-year-old actor accuses Schwarzenegger of deliberately farting on her.
"Oh Miriam! Stories from an Extraordinary Life" is available to buy at Amazon, Bookshop, and other bookstores.
