Look at that handsome mug!

Ed gets real in his feature interview included inside this month’s Rolling Stone dropping Friday. He chats everything from hard drinking to running from fame, and everything in between.

Ed also discussed his love Cherry, and how they re-connected..

“Sorry, I’m a bit drunk,” Sheeran says after flubbing a line to a new track. He stops to roll a cigarette and heat up a pizza. Then he sits down and plays “Perfect,” a fingerpicked waltz from ÷. Like most of songs he writes these days, it’s about Cherry, whom he’s known since high school and reconnected with at an after-show party in New York. They kept their relationship secret for a full year, until Taylor Swift invited them to her Fourth of July party in Rhode Island and a friend Instagrammed a picture of a banner celebrating their one-year anniversary. 

He also touched on how “friends” can change a little after they see how much money you’re earning..

 “The Forbes list actually fucked it up,” he says, referring to a report in the magazine indicating he made $57 million in 2015. “I was getting texts from people with pictures of cars going, ‘I’d like this for my birthday, please. This one’s only .06 percent of your annual income.'” (He ended up ditching his phone; he uses an iPad to communicate and a flip phone for close family.)

He’s one of the biggest artists in the world right now, and he’s just so damn honest! Love him.
