Ed Sheeran Has a Tattoo That Says 'Galway Grill' Because Saoirse Ronan Pranked Him
CelebritiesDirt BagEd Sheeran, a man who is either the enemy or a ginger troubadour responsible for a song that I can’t help singing along to even though I hate myself for it, has a lot of bad tattoos. Here’s a pleasant story about his most recent addition.
Sheeran filmed the video for the song in Galway, with Saoirse Ronan playing the girl in question. In the video, she pretends to give him a tattoo; Sheeran assumed that she was going to write “Galway Girl” because that’s the name of the song. Ronan, bless her freaking heart, decided to write “Galway Grill”, like the name of a restaurant at Ireland section of Epcot Center that only serves Guiness and potatoes three ways.
Perhaps because he has so many horrific tattoos, including a Technicolor lion on his chest that I’d rather not show you here, he’s fine with the mistake, but here’s a question: why on earth didn’t he look at whatever it is Saoirse wrote on his arm before he got the tattoo? Is it because he’s chill? Is it because his pale flesh is nothing more than a canvas for the whims of Irish actresses, tattoo artists and John Mayer? Does Ed Sheeran care about any of these reason? Did logic factor into this decision at all?
