Well now, this is interesting news.
We all know Ed Sheeran has some of the best collaborations ever. Whether it’s crooing with his bestie Taylor Swift, or joining his young super-fans on stage, Ed loves a good duet. And we love that he loves duets.
What we didn’t know, was that Ed Sheeran and Selena Gomez plan on doing more than just late night snack shopping together.
Rumours have abounded that these two may be the latest celebrities to get together, but according to Hollywood Life, it’s more of a musical connection that the two share.
Recently spotted together at the launch party for fellow musician Tori Kelly’s new album, the pair were apparently deep in conversation about working on some tracks together. Fabulous news.
A source close to Ed has reportedly said “he thinks she’s super-talented, has a great voice and the right appeal to front one of his songs.”
We feel like this could be the new musical dream team.
Ed is however, conscious of not bringing Selena’s ex Justin Bieber into the mix. The same source claims that “Ed doesn’t want to start anything with Justin Bieber and write a song for Selena about him. He feels she should concentrate on something else.”
We think that sounds like an excellent plan. Ed is a master musician and songwriter and we feel like Selena’s got enough talent, and serious sassiness to make for some excellent collaborations.
We wouldn’t go breaking out the love-heart emojis just yet though, while the pair are rumoured to be interested in working together, work is the main priority for both.
“Ed and Selena have been hanging out a lot together, but there’s nothing going on there. They just want to get to know each other better because they’re considering working with one another,” a source close to the dup has said.
Who knows, things could change, but we’re certainly going to be keeping a look out for any developments with these two.
