Ed Sheeran takes off disguise to perform a new song on NYC subway
Jimmy Fallon and Ed Sheeran surprised NYC subway riders with a performance at the Rockefeller Center station.
In Ed Sheeran‘s new video, a stalker-ish fan returns.
The four-time Grammy winner released his new video and single “A Little More” on Thursday, Aug. 7, and “Harry Potter” star Rupert Grint made a special appearance.
Grint reprises a role, but not as Ron Weasley from the beloved film franchise. Instead, the actor stars as the British pop star’s stalker, who originated in the music video for Sheeran’s 2011 hit song “Lego House.”
“I used to love you, now every day I hate you just a little more / Life got better when I lost you, but every day I hate you just a little more and more and more,” Sheeran croons during the catchy chorus of “A Little More.” “Blame it on your history and say it’s not your fault / I can’t call you crazy ’cause you could be diagnosed.”
In the video, which takes place 14 years later, Grint is unable to leave the past behind when Sheeran is seen during TV appearances, on billboard ads and even at the gym.
But Grint’s character gets a little taste of his own medicine: After falling in love, as the bride of Grint’s character walks down the aisle, all of the couple’s wedding guests transform into Sheeran.
When she finally meets him at the altar, the reformed stalker pulls back his bride’s veil to reveal that Sheeran has taken her place, too.
Ed Sheeran ‘A Little More’ music video stars Rupert Grint
The “Photograph” hitmaker took to Instagram on the same day the song dropped to praise Grint for starring in the music video, writing, “I hadn’t worked with @rupertgrint in 14 years since Lego house, so didn’t know if he’d say yes to this idea. But I’m so glad he did.” Grint commented, “Love you 🧡”
“It’s such a fun, bonkers video. Longest video shoot I had ever done at that time, and deffo the most costume changes,” Sheeran captioned the post. He added, “Rupert, my brother from another mother, thank you for throwing yourself into this, it wouldn’t exist had you said no. A Little More out now x.”
On Aug. 8, he had another message for fans: “Overwhelming response to this song and video. Releasing something this personal always feels really bare and open, but I always find the deeper and more honest I go with lyrics, the more people connect to it.”

The song arrives from his new album “Play,” which is set to be released next month on Friday, Sept. 12.
