Jay-Z was watched by a star-studded audience that included his wife Beyonce as he closed this year's Wireless festival in London last night (July 4).

The rapper thrilled fans in Hyde Park with a career-spanning set, which included recent hits 'Run This Town' and 'Empire State Of Mind'.

Jay-Z was joined during his performance by Mr Hudson, who sang 'Forever Young', and his protege J Cole.

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna were also spotted enjoying the rapper's set from the side of the stage.

Lily Allen, Friendly Fires and Slash were among the other artists who also performed at the festival yesterday.

The three-day event was headlined on Friday (July 2) by Pink and Saturday (July 3) by LCD Soundsystem.
