Ed Sheeran admits “if I wasn’t a musician, I’d be a virgin”, as he plays Pokémon in a stadium
Ed Sheeran has made a strange admission about his life in an alternate universe in a new Instagram post.
The singer recently posted a video of him sitting on the floor in a giant stadium, where he is currently in the midst of his EU ‘Mathematics’ tour.
There, he turned to the camera and confessed: “If I wasn’t a musician, I’d be a virgin”.
The camera then panned to a huge LED screen in the stadium, revealing Sheeran was playing Pokémon Stadium. He captioned his post: “Pokemon Stadium in the stadium #superawesomewickedcool #wannacometomybirthdayparty #itlbefunpromise #cake.” See the video below:

Earlier this year, a tout who sold Ed Sheeran and Lady Gaga tickets by buying and reselling at an “industrial scale” was sentenced to four years in prison.
Sheeran’s promoter Stuart Galbraith said at the time, the verdict was “good news for live music fans, who are too often ripped off and exploited by greedy ticket touts”.
