Ed Sheeran just made a major revelation. 🎶
During testimony Thursday, Sheeran revealed that he cannot read music. After sharing his occupation, marital status and dropping a few big industry names he's written for -- Justin Bieber, BTS, The Weeknd, Taylor Swift and Elton John to name a few -- Sheeran shared that he not only can't read music but also doesn't have a degree in the field.
Sheeran said he left school at the age of 17 and started playing gigs, covering songs at weddings before joining his first U.K. tour in 2009 with British singer Just Jack. Noting that his mom wanted him to continue his education, Sheeran said he got much more support from his dad when it came to starting out in the music biz.
Sheeran similarly defended the track during his testimony on Wednesday, where he addressed a video that had been submitted as evidence, showing him performing a mash-up of"Thinking Out Loud" and"Let's Get It On" at a concert.
