You'll Love the Shape of Ed Sheeran's Tattoos Once You Read the Stories Behind Them

The Canadian Maple Leaf on his arm is a tribute of "his first gig in Canada," while the snowflake with angel wings represents his 2012 tour with Snow Patrol. The red Japanese symbol is from the first time Ed played in Japan, and he also has a drawing that Irish singer Damien Rice drew for him when he was 11. The Puss in Boots relates to his song "Wake Me Up," in which he talks about Shrek. Plus, he likes cats. Not only did Ed get a matching Pingu tattoo with Harry Styles, but he also got a Fresh Prince of Bel Air design with the Rizzle Kicks in Philadelphia. His left arm also includes a teacup, the word "Red," puzzle pieces, a paw print, and a plus sign.
