He\u2019s only young, but he\u2019s certainly achieved a lot! He\u2019s won countless awards and he\u2019s even been given an MBE! He started singing at the age of four, and learnt to play the guitar while at primary school. His music became popular on YouTube, but it was in 2011 when he appeared on <em>Later\u2026 with Jools Holland<\/em> that he really came to the attention of the mainstream public. He\u2019s also done a spot of acting, appearing in Game of Thrones, Home and Away\u00a0 and Bridget Jones\u2019s Baby.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fabulous Ed Sheeran Facts\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ed has more than 60 tattoos, perhaps he should slow down before he runs out of room for more!<\/li>\n<li>He recorded his first EP when he was just 13 years old.<\/li>\n<li>Ed must love to play live, in 2009 he played a massive 312 gigs!
