Publicizing his new album, Ed Sheeran told in an interview that he grew up thinking he was gay. The story was reported in the “Man Man Man” podcast from Germany. According to Ed, he never felt “very masculine” and that’s why he was suspicious of his sexuality.
“I definitely had a feminine side, to the point where I thought I was gay when I was a boy. I have a big girly side, definitely. I love musical theater, I love pop music, I love Britney Spears. My male side probably stops drinking beer and watching football”, he declared.
The interview spoke a lot about these stereotypes of masculinity and femininity. Ed Sheeran said he is not a car enthusiast, as his friends see.
“It’s nice to have a car, but I’m not a car freak” he said. As for football, he said he prefers matches between women’s teams.
“I watched it and I was like: ‘I don’t know why I watch men’s football, this is much better”, he said.
“My wife is super pro-women and femininity. As soon as we started to stay, my life changed. She plays on a women’s hockey team. We left with the whole team. It’s a lot of female empowerment”, she defined.
