Ed Sheeran Celebrates '÷' By... Working at HMV?
Ed Sheeran bought and sold his new album at a record shop because... OF COURSE HE DID!
Celebrating the release of his third LP ‘÷’, Sheeran visited a local HMV in downtown Lodon to make an official purchase. Did I mention he was also wearing an Ed Sheeran ‘÷’ tee complete with an Ed Sheeran name tag while puchasing the album on both CD and vinyl? Oh, he than jumped behind the counter and helped employees sell his album to customers!
The album is already projected to be one of the hottest selling LPs for 2017. We're still waiting to hear about North American tour dates. You can see the full itinerary and score ticket information (when it becomes available) by CLICKING HERE.
