Ed Sheeran shared how Taylor Swift helped him feel at home in Nashville when he moved there for her Red tour in 2013.
The 34-year-old singer, who has been friends with the pop superstar for more than a decade, revealed that she introduced him to NFL in a roundabout way.
The Shape of You hitmaker shared that while he had recently moved in to the city because of Swift, “I got a place there. I went to Walmart to buy bits to move in and I just bought some pajamas. And then when I got home, I was wearing the pajamas. And when someone was around, they were like, ‘Oh, you’re a [Tennessee] Titans fan?’ I was like, ‘Guess I am.’”
During his appearance at Not Gonna Lie podcast hosted by Kylie Kelce, Sheeran explained that the pair of pajamas led to him being a loyal NFL fan ever since.
The Sapphire singer jokingly added, “It’s very similar to my soccer club back home. They’re always the bridesmaid — actually, I wouldn’t even say that they’re a bridesmaid. They’re invited to the wedding. They’re there.”
Fast forward to now, Swift herself is dating an NFL star, Travis Kelce, and has been a regular at the stands.
