British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran revealed his amazement yesterday at being given the chance to play a game of cards with the former President of the United States of America.

The 'Small Bump' sensation, who is currently in the U.S. supporting Taylor Swift on her extensive 'Red' tour, posted a photograph to his official Instagram account, which shows him posing with Bill Clinton. The shot is accompanied by the impressive caption: "Surreal day playing poker."

Last week, meanwhile, Sheeran unveiled an amazing stop-motion real Lego version of his song by the same name and since its release on April 11 it has almost reached 900,000 hits on YouTube.

His next American tour date will take place on April 18 in Atlanta at the Phillips Arena and Swift recently shared a picture of herself sat next to Sheeran on a theme park ride (shown below) during some rare down time.
