Ed Sheeran's puppet was pretty expensive you know

  • June 18, 2014
  • Brad O'Mance

Ed SheeranEd Sheeran's noted that the ter­ri­fy­ing spook­pup­pet in his 'Sing' video cost more than most of his previous music videos.

Having a chat to the BBC about all manner of things, he was asked about the slightly creepy puppet and said the following words:

"They took pictures of all my tattoos and what I was wearing and it was very much a process to get that done."

"I wanted to case him up and have him in my house but we might keep him for future stuff because he was an expensive puppet," he continued.

"That puppet cost more than all the videos on my last album, bar one, for 'Give Me Love'."

Update your spread­sheets accord­ingly please.
