Ed Sheeran, the hot ginger that plays great music. His favorite color is orange, he names his guitars, has a brother named Matthew who is a classical composer. The list of Ed Sheeran fun facts could go on forever. But there's one that has been blowing everyone's mind: Ed Sheeran has over 30 tattoos on his front and more down his sleeves. Each of Sheeran's tattoos has a specific meaning... and I'm sure you can't wait to hear about some of the major ones!

1. Hearts Don't Break Around Here

Photographic Evidence That Ed Sheeran Is Hot

If you've listened to his new album, Divide, you already know what this tattoo is! Track number nine on his new album, Hearts Don't Break Around Here, is just one of the many tattoos Ed got that has a meaning behind his songs.

2. The Lion

Probably his most popular tattoo located front and center. In case you didn't know already, England's national emblem is a lion. Ed Sheeran got this after selling out three nights in a row at the largest venue in England, Wembley Stadium.

3. Family Tree

This Ed Sheeran Tattoo is exactly what it sounds like - a tree in honor of his family. A family tree.

4. The Teddy Bear

This adorable teddy bear is actually in honor of his childhood nickname: Teddy.

5. RED

Fun fact: Ed Sheeran was the songwriter for Taylor Swift's song Everything Has Changed. Between that and the friendship Ed shares with T. Swift, he got her album name tattooed to his arm.

6. Lego

Ed Sheeran, lego piece... I'm sure you can figure out that one. Just in case, his track, Lego House, was released in 2011.

7. Pingu the Penguin


This is hard to see at first, Ed's Pingu the Penguin tattoo is actually a bro tat that he got with Harry Styles. Pingu the Penguin is a penguin from a British children's show. Ed got the penguin and Harry got the word Pingu just above the armpit. Talk about a creative bro tat.

8. Snow Flake & Angel Wings

This tattoo has 2-in-1. The snowflake pictured actually represents Ed Sheeran's time spent with Snow Patrol in 2012, while the angel wings of course represent another one his precious songs, The A Team.

9.Puzzle Pieces

This Sheeran Tattoo might be one of my favorites. Each puzzle piece is a tattoo he got for a friend. The blank puzzle piece is to be filled in for his wife when he gets married.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
