Ed Sheeran: ‘Harry Styles and I got matching penguin tattoos’

British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has confessed that he encouraged One Direction's Harry Styles to get a matching tattoo with him as a mark of brotherly solidarity.

Speaking to MTV News about their bond, he explained that he took Styles along to watch him get his Pingu ink done and convinced him to get a similar design as a "bro tat":

"I got that [tattoo] with Harry Styles, he got Pingu [written under his arm]. Kinda like a bro tat. I mentioned it; he was like, 'Alright then.'"

Sheeran added that he also has a tattoo connection with the Rizzle Kicks lads as they all have pieces themed around the popular, Fresh Prince Of Bel Air TV show:

"I played in Philadelphia and I was on tour with my friends, Rizzle Kicks, who were my opening act. I got 'Prince,' Jordan got 'Fresh' on his leg, and Harley got on his arm, 'on the playground where I spent most of my days.'"
