Ed Sheeran stars in Beats headphones advert

Ed Sheeran has teamed up with Beats By Dre for their new advertising campaign.

The audio company unveiled today (May 29) a commercial for their new Solo 2 range of headphones.

It stars Sheeran himself, who is seen in a hotel room getting influence to write a song before recording it.

The tune playing in the background of the clip is his new track 'Don't', which he recently performed on Later...With Jools Holland.

Sheeran posted on Twitter: "Happy to say my song 'Don't' will be featured in the new @beatsbydre campaign, I also feature in the advert."

The clip comes as Apple confirmed that they would be buying the Beats By Dre business for $3bn (£1.8bn).

The singer-songwriter's new album 'x' meanwhile is due to be released in the UK on June 23.
