Ed Sheeran signs big money deal to be new face of TikTok

Ed Sheeran has reportedly been paid a mega sum of money to become the face of TikTok.

The 'Bloodstream' hitmaker is said to have filmed a top secret project with the video sharing platform in London recently, as part of his new deal with the social media giant. 

A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: “Ed has signed a mega deal with TikTok and was filming for them in London recently. “It is a huge coup to get someone as big as Ed on board and everyone is really excited about the end result. “TikTok is a huge platform for artists now and Ed can see that. “It was something he wanted to get involved in and the project he has done with them is really exciting.” 

It comes days after Ed and his pal Courteney Cox went viral with their clip of them re-creating her 'Friends' character Monica Geller's dance, which she performed with her brother Ross Geller (David Schwimmer) on the show. 

Ed captioned the video on rival app Instagram: “Had a reunion of our own this weekend.” 

At the time of writing, the clip has been viewed more than seven million times.
