Sir Mick Jagger paid a musical tribute to his late girlfriend L'Wren Scott at a memorial service in New York.


Scott took her own life in March (14) and a private funeral was held in Los Angeles later that month.


Her close friends and family attended a memorial service at St. Bartholomew's Church in the city to celebrate the fashion designer's life on Friday (02May14).


The Rolling Stones frontman sang Bob Dylan's Just Like a Woman as a musical tribute to his longterm girlfriend. He and Scott's brother Randy Bambrough also spoke a few words to the guests.


Jagger's son James and Scott's niece, Hannah Bambrough, both read poems, and the singer's grandchildren, Mazie and Zak, read Psalm 23 from the Bible.


R&B singer Lisa Fischer, who has been a back-up singer for the rockers for years, also performed her version of Amazing Grace.


Jagger's bandmates Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards attended the service, along with actresses Julianne Moore, Ellen Barkin, Meg Ryan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Olivia Munn and Renee Zellweger, Vogue editor Anna Wintour, and film directors Martin Scorsese and Baz Luhrmann.
