In two unexpected moves, Ed Sheeran stars (rather than making a cameo) as a ballroom dancer in the music video for “Thinking Out Loud.” The song is the third single from Ed’s second album, X, following “Sing,” produced by Pharrell, and “Don’t”. X became Ed’s first number one album in the United States, selling 210,00 copies. Ed Sheeran tweeted to his nearly 11 million followers yesterday, “I’ve learned to dance” before sharing the new video.
