Jay-Z celebrated his return to the stage in England with a surprise duet with his love interest Beyonce Knowles.

The rapper, who recently announced his return from retirement, called on Beyonce to join him on stage to perform a duet of her smash hit Crazy in Love.

The couple then also sang the recent single 'Deja Vu' which sent the crowd wild.

But Beyonce was not the only star name to duet with the hip hop star as fellow rap legend Nas also joined him on stage to perform 'Dead Presidents II'.

Jay-Z decided to celebrate the life of many dead stars in his act - projecting images of Notorious BIG, 2Pac, Aaliyah, and Kurt Cobain onto huge TV screens.

The two-hour show featured all his big hits including 'Hard Knock Life', 'H To The Izzo' 'Girls, Girls, Girls' and '99 Problems'.
