Ed Sheeran opens up about how crazy fans can be and what it’s like to date someone who knows he makes music in his latest interview.
In a Q&A posted last week with Entertainment Weekly, the singer talks about some of his craziest moments dealing with fans – and more specifically – their parents.

“The parents are the ones that do the things that I think are odd,” he said. “There was a woman in San Francisco, she wanted me to be her daughter’s first kiss—and her daughter was 9. She was like, ‘Well, Carrie Underwood did it for this 11-year-old boy last week!’”
“If Carrie Underwood kisses an 11-year-old boy, he goes into school the next day and they go, ‘Oh, you absolute lad!’ If a 9-year-old girl goes into school and goes, ‘I got kissed by a 24-year-old yesterday,’ police are being called, you know?” he added jokingly.
Sheeran also admitted that fans that ask for help with marriage proposals on stage are a common occurrence.
“…We had a spontaneous one—a dude sitting in the second row, every now and then he’d pull out a banner that just said, ‘Proposal on stage?’ and then close it. And halfway through the gig I was like, ‘F—it, just come up!’ he said.
“That was cool. And I felt something because of that because it was so spontaneous—I got emotional watching it. So it just depends.”
After his breakup with Ellie Goulding, Sheeran admitted that it is hard to find someone – famous or not - to date is difficult because of his fame.
“I think the thing that’s impossible to do is date someone that isn’t aware that I make music,” he said. “So whether they’re a fan or not, that changes people’s perceptions of you. I don’t really date people in my sphere.”
Even though the “Don’t” singer may be single right now, he’s supportive of his BFF Taylor Swift’s latest relationship with Calvin Harris saying he approves of the couple.
