Awwwwkward. Poor ginger hobbit Ed Sheeran had another less than pleasant experience on stage with Taylor Swift last night. Rolling into Newark, New Jersey as part of Taylor's massive RED tour, Swift and Sheeran weren't even a minute into their duet of 'Everything Has Changed' when it all went tits up in the most painful way.
Ed's earpiece fell out just as he was about to do his own little bit of the song, and due to the deafening sound of the arena couldn't find his place and went all over the gaff, falling out of sync with everything. It's possibly one of the most awful things to endure. You will cringe your pants off. And you can tell Taylor is raging when she has to go and tell a roadie what's happened, letting the track do it's work until Ed recovers before shouting 'Live shows, ladies and gentlemen. Give it up for Ed Sheeran, who's still playing even after his in-ears went out!'
Sheeran later told US Weekly about it saying 'My earpiece fell out. I couldn't hear in time with the music. I was worried about it but these things happen. We'll move on'. Indeed Ed, you just have to. We, meanwhile, can watch the horror over and over and over again below. It's so bad but we can't look away. You two are definitely never, ever, ever getting back together now.
