Ed Sheeran has revealed that he is in the process of forming a boyband.
The flame-haired singer graces the cover of Rolling Stone, and inside the feature it’s revealed that he’s “in the process of auditioning members of a boy band he’s creating.”
It is also reported that the Suffolk native has “already written lots of songs for the group.”
When describing the songs, he calls them “really, really decent. Superpop, but obviously credible.”
The singer adds, “I’m gonna put three or four boys together and do all the songs, take them on the stadium tour with me.”
His long-awaited third album – his first since June 2014’s ‘x’ – hit both digital and physical shelves last Friday.
Fans responded to the new full-length record positively, while bookmakers quickly moved to post ‘÷’ as one of the favourites to be the biggest-selling album of 2017 in the UK.
