Ed Sheeran reveals the one time he felt like a true rock star

British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has revealed that playing guitar for Beyoncé was an incredibly moment and one he won't forget. 

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly about the moment he felt like a true rock star, the flame-haired musician explained that performing alongside Beyoncé at the Stevie Wonder tribute show was a once in a lifetime opportunity that made him feel so cool:

"Playing with Beyoncé. That's the only point I've felt like a rock star. In my own shows, I'm still quite an awkward British dude with an acoustic guitar. But when you're on stage with Stevie Wonder's band, Gary Clark Jr. and Beyoncé and then they give you an electric guitar to play... that's when you can feel a bit rock-y."

He went onto add that he's not much of a fan of living like a rock star and will only splash out once in a blue moon: "In a limo with models? No. The last limo I was in was with my team, and they booked a bright pink one. I remember seeing it and being like, 'I'm not turning up to a radio station in a limo, let alone a pink one, so let's just get a taxi'."

"I think you can easily live the rock star stereotype, but it's a once-in-a-while thing. If you do it all the time it loses its value and loses its excitement. So we'll have a blowout once every three months and we'll do it properly rather than have a blowout every night."
