Ed Sheeran, 24, has had “Ladz On Tour” tattooed above his nipples.

The singer inked the tattoos on himself, as well as Rixton members Jake Roche, Lewi Morgan, Charley Bagnall and Danny Wilkin, in an ironic nod to the fact they’re the “opposite of lads”.

Jake said: “It sounds ridiculous, but it’s because we’re the opposite of lads. You won’t see us going to Magaluf for a long weekend – we prefer a quiet pint in a country pub.

“Ed drew it out and we got one as well. His is on his chest, Charley’s is on his ribs, Lewi’s is on his arms and Danny’s is on his a**e”.

Jake added that he’s “covered” in tattoos he got while drunk. He told The Sun: “I’m covered in silly tattoos from when we’ve had a few drinks and ended up regretting it, but they are memories.”

Ed is also getting a tattoo of a lion – the symbol for England’s football team – to mark his sell-out Wembley Stadium gigs at the weekend. But, he admitted: “It’s going to hurt.”
