Jay-Z ended his V Festival headline slot by making a touching tribute to the late rock star Chester Bennington.

Jay and Chester collaborated together on an album called Collision Course back in 2004.

The six track album mashed together huge hits by Jay and Chester’s band Linkin Park.

But the music world was devastated last month when Chester took his own life at the age of 41.

Performing at the Staffodshire Weston Park location of V Festival on Saturday, Jay ended his set with the Collision Course track Numb/Encore.

The tune blends Jay’s own 2003 single Encore with Linkin Park’s Numb.

It is the first time Jay has performed the track live since 2011 - with the V Festival audience singing along enthusiastically.

V Festival concludes on Sunday night - where Jay will headline a second time, but this time at Chelmsford’s Hylands Park in Essex.

Watch highlights from this year's V Festival, LIVE from Chelmsford tonight from 9pm on MTV, MTV Music and MTV Live HD...
