Allen made a point of wearing a single white glove for her set on the Pyramid Stage in memory of the glove that Jackson had worn, and The Streets performed a cover version of the hit Billie Jean.
The Glastonbury Festival officially started on Friday, only hours after the news of Jackson's death was getting out to people.
Producer and rapper Williams is reported to have said that Jackson and Quincey Jones, who had masterminded the Thriller album, had "opened the door for human beings to explore a higher level of musical consciousness".
Glastonbury Festival founder Michael Eavis and his daughter Emily, who is now a main organiser of the event, both paid tribute to Jackson as well.
