Ngamen Di Pinggir Jalan India, Ed Sheeran Dihentikan Polisi

JAKARTA - Ed Sheeran's appearance while singing on the edge of India's streets, was widely discussed on social media. The reason is, a policeman came and stopped the 33-year-old singer-writer's game.

Meanwhile, the video footage uploaded to the TikTok @onshiyogi account shows Sheeran playing the song 'Shape Of You' using a guitar on the side of the road.

Across the street, dozens of people were seen singing hits from the album 'Divide' which was released in March 2017.

Sheeran's appearance was disturbed after a police officer came. He had an argument with someone, who seemed to ask Sheeran to stop his game.

However, Sheeran continued to sing, until finally the police officer forcibly pulled out the plug, which resulted in the loudspeaker's system not functioning.

Through an Instagram Story upload, Sheeran gave his clarification. He said that a permit had been submitted before singing on the side of the road

"We have received permission to sing, so we played in that place," wrote Ed Sheeran in his statement, Sunday, February 9.

"It was pre-planned, we weren't the ones that appeared randomly," he continued.

However, Sheeran explained that there was no problem even though his game was stopped. He still performed for the concert at the NICE Grounds, Bengaluru on schedule.

"But everything is fine. See you at the show tonight," he concluded.
