Besties Jay-Z and Chris Martin celebrated the New Year together at their joint New Year's Eve concert at Brooklyn's Barclays Center last night/this morning.
Billboard reports back that "Jay-Z took the stage at 11:59 p.m. on New Year's Eve Monday night and rang in 2013 with Coldplay's Chris Martin singing along to 'Auld Lang Syne.' The singer and the rapper hugged, and then the stage was Jay's. In a double-bill show that took place half in one year and half in another, Coldplay—who had the night's first set—had been a riot of color and movement all over the arena, while Jay, in a dark tux, stood mostly alone on stage putting a laser focus on his rapid-fire rhymes."
