7) He is the proud holder of a Nando's Black card. "I've got one, yeah. It's sick. I got it a couple of months ago and I've been rinsing it. I always go for medium, though. I like to enjoy my food rather than just challenging myself. I mean I can handle it, but I can't handle the next day, when, er, you know, it resurfaces."

8) He likes to keep his facial stubble because it makes him look older. He told the Telegraph, "I look about 12 when I shave."

10) Sheeran got a Red tattoo to mark the career opportunity and remarked, "I think Taylor's just opening up a lot of doors and it's up to me to make sure that I get through to them. It's a massive opportunity for me and I want to make sure to grab it with both hands."

BONUS:

He is a philanthropist. Sheeran performed a gig in Bristol, which raised £40,000 for a charity that reaches out to street sex workers. "It's good to show insight that these people are real people with real emotions and they deserve the same charity work as anyone else," Sheeran said. "There's a lot more popular charities that get a lot of attention. And with certain subjects like this they're often washed over and people don't necessarily give them the attention they deserve."
