Ed Sheeran was usually insecure about his body.
When the music video to Ed Sheeran’s number one hit, Shape of You, dropped two months ago, fans were finally able to see what the singer looks like under his shirt. It was the first time people saw Sheeran’s naked upper body, although fans know very well that he’s usually insecure about his body image.
Speaking with US Weekly recently, Sheeran talked about how he became “comfortable” enough with his body to go topless in the music video.
“My lifestyle changed,” he explained. “I realised I needed to start exercising, not necessarily to be slim but have a healthy heart. By exercising and not having such a wild lifestyle, you end up being a healthy human being.”
“Having my shirt off in the video wasn’t my idea though,” he added. “It was the director’s and it kind of happened very last minute. I wasn’t really comfortable with it but he lit it in such a way that it ended up looking quite cool.”
