Ed Sheeran celebrated Grammy nominations by going 'wild in a dive bar'

Ed Sheeran has opened up on his boozy celebrations after being nominated for next year's Grammy Awards.

The singer-songwriter recently received nods for the ceremony's Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album and Best Song for Visual Media gongs.

Speaking to Yahoo Celebrity, the Brit said he ended up going to a bar whilst in the US and buying everyone drinks after learning of the news.

Sheeran said: "[Sam Smith] and I went out for lunch and celebrated but in the evening when I found out I had the Best Album nomination I went wild.

"I went to a dive bar and just ended up outside and I ordered loads of rounds of Jagerbombs for everyone. People I hadn't even met, I was just buying drinks for everyone outside. It was good. I had this huge metal mug that I'd stolen and I was just filling it with champagne and drinking it like it was beer. It was a mad night."

Speaking meanwhile about the prospect of winning, the 'x' star added:

"I don't really know what I'll do if I win. If I did win the best album one I'd make it quite brief and let other people say something. Afterwards would be mental though."

The Grammys are due to be held on February 8.
