AceShowbiz - Is he really into a guy? Ed Sheeran was spotted locking lips with Australian comedian Rove McManus on the red carpet of the 2015 ARIA Awards in Sydney, Australia on Thursday, November 26. The moment was captured on the same day the "Thinking Out Loud" hitmaker announced his engagement to James Blunt.
In a viral video on Instagram, Sheeran coincidentally met McManus on the red carpet. The British singer was putting his hands on McManus' cheeks and had an impromptu kiss in front of the crowd of photogs. The kiss lasted just about 1 second. The two then awkwardly parted away after the kiss.
Fans quickly responded to the viral video. Instagram user @sarbdly commented, "I'm SOOOO jelly!!" One fan @seamoneeee wrote, "I mean i would go would go to their wedding," to which another fan @sydneyccuneo replied, "@seamoneeee same but he's joking." Fan @edsarmy claimed that Sheeran wasn't gay as saying, "Showing affection to another man doesn't make you gay."
Apparently there's nothing special in their kiss as McManus also kissed another guy on the red carpet. The comedian posted on the social media a picture of him planting a kiss on Blunt's cheek. A caption for the picture read, "More #ARIAs red carpet man love with @jamesblunt." On the following day, McManus kissed Australian singer Vance Joy during a radio interview.
