25 reasons we love Ed Sheeran on his 25th birthday
Ed Sheeran turns 25 today!
After taking home two Grammy awards on February 15th for best solo performance and song of the year for his hit album, Thinking Out Loud, a special celebration is in order for our favorite red-haired, British singer and songwriter. To help wish Ed a big happy birthday, here are 25 reasons we are Sheerio fans forever.
1. He's as humble as they come.
2. He embraces being a Ginger, with a good sense of humor.
3. He was hilariously unfiltered hosting the EMAs in 2015.
4. Most of Ed's songs are based on real-life experiences.
“I did a gig at a homeless shelter, and it was about one of the women there. It’s her story. Well, the song itself was written all about her story, so the song is about a drug-addicted homeless woman.”
— Ed Sheeran about The A Team for Interview Magazine
5. Remember that time Ed dished about his love affair with Ellie Goulding in his song, Don't? Here they are sitting together at the MTV Video Music Awards back in 2013.
6. He made sweet, sweet love to our ears singing a mash-up of No Diggity and Thrift Shop with Passenger.
7. His accent — enough said.
8. He's besties with one of our favorite 1D members, Harry Styles!
9. Did we mention, he writes songs for them too? Ed co-wrote One Direction smash hits like Moments, One Thing, and Night Changes.
10. He offers great words of wisdom.
11. His infamous warped face videos never fails to crack us up.
12. No matter how uncensored they may be (this one is NSFW).
13. He's open to sharing personal moments with his fans, like the first time he ever tried Taco Bell. Ever.
14. And we'll never forget that time he cast Rupert Grint, aka Ron Weasley, to star in his Lego House music video.
(this is him getting Rupert Ed-heady ready)
15. His collaborations with various artists are unreal.
16. No, but seriously, his features are brilliant.
17. But his solo songs are incredible, too. #thefeels
18. He pulls off the Austin Powers look freakishly well.
19. He tells great jokes, but gives credit where credit it due.
20. We can't help but get a little jealous of his friendship with Tswift.
21. And that time he got pizza with Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
22. He doesn't take himself too seriously.
23. He's cool enough to be Simpson-fied!
24. And even though he recently told fans he's taking a break from social media...
25. We know he'll still love us even if we can't.
