Jay-Z and Simon Pegg join Coldplay onstage at Wembley Stadium - video

Pegg, a long term friend and champion of the band, appeared onstage to play the harmonica part of early track 'Trouble'. Elsewhere in Coldplay's set, the band played an acoustic version of Michael Jackson's 'Billie Jean', garnering an emphatic response from the audience.
