Coldplay and U2's Bono were amongst the stars to praise radio DJ Jo Whiley.
The DJ was given a celebrity-packed send-off as she left Radio 1 after seventeen years.
''Thanks for the messages. To be part of people’s lives is all you can ask for as a DJ,” Whiley told radio listeners.
Bono made a surprise phone call to the show: “You should be carried around the BBC in a chair with people throwing flowers at your feet.”
Coldplay, Foo Fighters and Klaxons also performed.
Meanwhile, Coldplay are set to co-finance Ray Winstone's new film 'Ashes', it has been reported.
