Ed Sheeran has just announced that his iconic tune, Shape of You, has just become the most listened to Spotify song EVER.

The song just surpassed an unbelievable TWO BILLION streams on the music platform, meaning that you'd literally have to start listening to it in 12,758BC to play it two billion times consecutively.

That. Is. Insane.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Thank you world. First song to 2 billion streams on @spotify xx

A post shared by Ed Sheeran (@teddysphotos) on

Sheeran himself commented on the feat through his Instagram account, writing;

“Thank you world. First song to two billion streams on Spotify”.

This essentially confirms the fact that it's the most popular song in the world, which is no easy achievement.

That's not all the records that Sheeran has broken, he has yet ANOTHER song in the top ten Spotify songs; Thinking Out Loud.

The 2014 ballad which is now played at every wedding ever sits at number five with 1.2 million streams… not bad, not bad.

Canadian rapper Drake’s single God’s Plan was the most listened-to song of 2018, with an impressive 1.1 billion streams.

Ariana Grande took the title of most listened to female artist of 2018 on Spotify, with her Sweetener album deservedly breaking numerous records. Slay queen.

Congrats Ed, you're always on our A-Team.

In case you missed this entire furore, Ed Sheeran and Beyoncé hit the headlines over the last few days over their outfits while performing together in South Africa.

While Beyoncé was dressed like… a QUEEN… Ed Sheeran wore his usual t-shirt and jeans attire. 

Social media users have commented on the possible gender dynamic between the two, where the female singer is under pressure to look a certain way, while the men are allowed to dress in whatever manner they want;

Others online think the entire debacle is rather hilarious, and Ed Sheeran evidently is on this side of the sea.

The 27-year-old singer-songwriter is known for his down-to-earth style of things, and replied with predictable humour.

He posted a purchase link to the t-shirt which he was wearing in the performance on his Instagram story;

He later added:

"Follow hoax1994 for more of my amazing fashion choices x. #dresstoimpress"

The clothing company Hoax are of the same mind as Sheeran, and posted to their own Instagram feed:

Well, you can't say he doesn't see the funny side of things.

He doesn't appear to be very concerned about the whole debate online, at least Hoax are getting some top quality promotion because of it all.

What are your thoughts, does Ed need the Queer Eye guys to give him a make-over?

It official. Ed Sheeran is truly one of the nicest people in the WORLD.

It's recently been revealed that the signer paid off one of his friend's mortgages with a song credit.

The 24-year-old was helping his long-time friend Amy Wadge, who was struggling financially until Ed let her contribute to his last album. 

Ed revealed to the Mirror: "She was going through financial troubles about a year ago."

"She drove to my house – my album was nearly done – and she asked if I could put a song from when I was 17 on the deluxe album, so she could get a little bit of money and pay the mortgage and bills and stuff."

"While she was there, we wrote Thinking Out Loud. Now she never has to worry about money again."

Amy admitted to the Mirror that things had gotten pretty bad.

"I'm not going to lie and say things hadn't got financially difficult. My publishing advance had run out and I wasn't seeing my family at all."

And not only has she been enjoying her new-found richness – Thinking Out Loud has gone platinum three times – she's now writing for other major stars in the business like Ben Haenow and Geri Halliwell.

Well, you might have missed out on the chance to see Ed Sheeran's play at Whelan's over the weekend, but we've found something to cheer you up.

Or terrify you, as the case may be.

Who knew an upside-down chin could be so freaky?! We have to admit though, it does look quite like Ed!

​We'll never listen to Thinking Out Loud the same way again…
