Ed Sheeran has apologised to fans for making "mistakes" as he opened his first show since Macklemore was dropped from his tour for making pro-Palestinian remark…

October 7th is HORRIBLE since then it's DISPROPORTIONATE. One word stronger than the other. Hypocritical.
I’m just gonna say what everybody else is thinking; he only apologised after he had been abandoned by his band and all of his warmup acts and all of the bad press. Not to mention the protests outside of his venues, that he was also not filling. Go figure. And this bullshit about him not wanting to be political is precisely that, because he has said and performed many political acts in support of Ukraine.
he haSs made an effort to redeem himself
Sheeran got a crew cut and expects empathy.
The lot of a famous singer: it's easy come… and it's easy go. Your customer base who blindly hero worshiped you and made you rich quickly .. are emotionally volatile and may suddenly reject you for not instantly capitulating to their one sided naivety over a frankly separate issue. Build intelligent customers slowly; not simple reactionary ones who only see in binary and never question the MSM line..
It’s not complex, it’s genocide.

Billionaire Bond villain Robert Kraft
He just looking stupid reading the telepromter
Please, you have to understand, the billionaire class has the right to decide what music you should hear.
Still dropping him
Mr a political has terrible PR team, must be boomers from dark ages. He’s always blaming someone else and never taking accountability, now he’s blaming stadium owners and it was promoters before but he was happy to be on their side until it backfired and became meme
I would have had more respect for him if he had remained silent.
He read the speech his handlers prepared for him from his teleprompter, confirming that’s he’s 100% siding with colonialists and billionaires.
"most complex political issue on the planet". It's not complicated Ed!
Most people will cheer anything
Don't read an apology from a teleprompter you say it from the heart but fake Ed just spouting nonsense we know Kraft who owns Gillette stadium & phoned the owners of other stadiums to ban Macklemore & Ed attended Krafts wedding sorry Ed not buying it.😎
Fire the stadium owners or face the wrath..
Ed Sheeran in 1942: “I am appalled by the conflict between Nazis Germans and the Jewish people of Europe. The suffering caused on both sides is a human tragedy.”
No apology. He doubled down his support for criminal Israel who are committing active crimes against humanity before any mention of their innocent victims. He is a fool and will pay for it. Nothing can justify Israel's crimes.
Crocodile tears
Starting off with October 7 is not a good first step. Start with the great march of return if you’re not up to a century long review of Zionist atrocities.
Saindo nothing
Ed sheeran is not responsible to fix all problems of jews and arabs. He talked sensitive. He sad right things. Let him be.
Israel lost any right to claim victimhood over Palestinian retaliatory violence many times over - their response to peaceful protestors in the great march of return was a conclusive example
@edsheeran yeah, that sounded performative as F.
Ed was just delivering PR message.
Bye Ed
Complicity in Genocide<br>If the person's influence is used not to incite but to shield, protect, or facilitate those committing genocide, liability arises under Article III(e) of the Genocide Convention — complicity in genocide. <br><br>This is where the "approving spectator" doctrine becomes critical. The person who:<br><br>Knows genocide is occurring<br>Has the ear of the masses<br>Uses that influence to silence dissent, legitimise the perpetrators, or manufacture consent for the violence <br>…is not a passive bystander. Their purposive use of public influence to create conditions in which the principal offenders can act with impunity constitutes aiding and abetting. The prosecution must prove:<br><br>Knowledge of the essential facts of the genocide
Too little too late from ZioGinge.
Sounds like a pre written script
The bbc as sacked anyboby who voices anti genocide oppions, maybe they should look at there own basic humanity.
Cómo se mueve ese niño! El "genio" de Avilés: "Está demasiado delgado, hay que darle potitos", le dijeron a mi mamá. Me puse como una bolita antes de la medición, y aún así de lo mejor del mundo. Con 15 años envenenado (me dijeron que saltará, no que corriera rápido). TODO EN AVILÉS A MALA LECHE . Con aquella marca ya hay quien hizo 106 Kg blanco, 23 una mano blanco y más de 37 Kg de bíceps blanco (delgado, mejor marca hubiera conseguido). ME TRASLADARON ESTO. Si hay que engordarme con potitos y envenenarme para todo (fuerza, peso, estudios, rabo, inteligencia, etc), el sitio es justo lo contrario a bueno. PARECE QUE NO HAY QUIEN ME QUITE SER DE LO MEJOR (independientemente de estar gordo y ser más pequeño, y un pequeño desfase, no recién cumplidos, hay dudas con la India por dos detalles, en edad adulta no cumplen con lo que debieran levantar, y por ejemplo con Italia, ganaron, pero el término medio lo tienen más bajo, puede ser que algunos hicieran como los africanos, ser más mayores de lo que dicen sus carnets de identidad o sustancias prohibidas o terreno o distancia, etc).<br><br>Tenía razón la abuela, "Si te haces de miel te comen las moscas". Para mí madre fue picudo lo de los potitos. Mi madre les dio la mano y le cogieron el brazo (estudios, Down, VIH, deporte, 45 años de venenos, 15 años a los órganos internos, que no ligue ni trabaje NUNCA, etc).
More bbc fake news
Anyone who “doesn’t know enough” in September 2026 does not know enough ON PURPOSE!
lame BBC reporting … look in the comment sections …. nobody buy his teleprompter speech
Auto cue.
Honestly, let’s give him some credit: it must be hard to look 'Perfect' when your 'Eyes Closed' are glued to a monitor like a nervous news anchor reading a retraction script. But seriously, never take a pop star seriously when he's delivering a humanitarian speech with his hands in his pockets. His entire performance is as automated as his music. At this point, I’m pretty sure both his political stances and the 'Shape of You'—I mean, his chord progressions—are just a bunch of 'Bad Habits' copied and pasted from someone else's hard drive.
You’re a singer. Just sing.
Basically, Apologise or be Cancelled ....... I'm sorry for upsetting my gravy train
Reading from a teleprompter
Ed you're a coward
You can literally see him reading off the floor in front of him 😂
Compounding his own stupidity 🙄🤡
Never apologise to the mob.
First time in history someone got emotional while reading from a teleprompter.
why am i getting cringe feelings listening to ES
He's "so sorry" for the money he's losing by supporting the deliberate slaughter of entire families in Gaza etc.<br>He's obviously just another pathetic money-rich-morally-bankrupt celeb.<br>Devoid of human empathy and compassion the vast majority of people worldwide share.<br>Utterly shameful but no surprise.<br>“Some people are so poor all they have is money” Bob Marley<br>New twist on the phrase "sold-out tour".<br>We know who’s in charge by who we are not allowed to criticize.
Sheeran's "apology" was read off a teleprompter. Not genuine, not real.
Ed Sheeny trying to ride the fence.
Artists should not be silenced as well by politicians and billionaires who have agendas. Artist ate for publics and we need them to stay that way because the public make them. This billionaires just get richer along the way with OUR OWN MONEY WE PAY FIR ARTISTS. SO POWER TO THE PUBLIC. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Don't support artist that sell his soul and friends to the highest bidder.
Before October 7th Gaza and West Bank have lost their beloved children parents grand parents their husbands wives due to oppression and injustices penetrated by the Settlers so it does make you think that someone needs to take up arms against oppressors of their beloved countrymen. It's a very natural thing it perfectly suits Newton's third law. Let it be fair
Sorry, I didn't have the patience to listen to the PR script, can someone please tell me if he used the word "genocide" at all?
How many planes and boats are arriving today??
Ed be “oh no reputation is at stake! Public approval hunting time 😂
Weak and deeply stupid to apologise, you an entertainer, keep to that and your sweet.
October 7th is just a natural response from decades of repression injustices and crimes against Native Palestinians. <br>What would you expect if settlers confiscate someone's land without their will and throw them out of their land by claiming it's their ancestoral land? <br>You shouldn't be complicit when it comes to oppression and injustices against native people wherever they're not just in Palestine.
For effs sake. Hes an effin guitarist who writes lovely songs. He was torn between loyalty to fans who've bought tickets and a world war. He would of been getting advice from all sorts, he didnt have a problem with Macklemore, not everyone wants politics in everything. This is from a very political old lady, who was backing yassah arefat before Ed was born
Damage control. Must keep selling tickets.
So he is NOW talking to people to "learn" about how to make a "contribution!" In other words if he hadn't been shamed into it, he would've said nothing and carried on presumably oblivious to a genocide...
That was not an apology, it was damage control. I wonder if he ran his speech past Kraft and the Israeli censors so that he could use the work "catastrophic".
He didn't apologise he tried to appease. Yes Oct 7th was horrific but so was operation Cast Lead conducted in 2008 when 1400 Palestinians were massacred by Israel. Israels response to Oct 7th stands as one of the most if not the most disproportionate response in history. Utterly evil and devoid of any feeling whatsoever. How one group of people could be so cruel to another is incomprehensible it points to a severe sickness in Israeli society and all those that have enabled that action.
HE HAS NOTHING TO APOLOGISE ABOUT
If that's an apology, I missed it. That was a trainwreck
The BBC's framing: It's "Pro-Palestine" rather than "Anti-Genocide". The "controversy" prompted the other acts to quit, not Sheeran firing someone for speaking out. This is all just an "argument about free speech" rather than a principled stance against genocide. It all started on 7 October 2007. The genocide isn't a "genocide", it's a "situation in Gaza". Pro-Israel and Pro-Sheeran people are "Concert goers" while Pro-Palestine and Pro-Macklemore people are "Protesters". Riiiiight. 🙄🙄
He needs to say free Palestine and be done 🤷🏽♂️
He isn't sorry.<br><br>He has realised that he just lost a bunch of money.
Very Krafty
he was told to say sorry !!! worried about the bank balance,
Its hardly taking sides. There isn't enough moral ambiguity to take sides. Stop killing children, stop committing genocide and then the world can talk about sides, but even then Israel... Netanyahu has disgraced your country for centuries after these atrocities. That's not a reflection on the Jewish faith and you're not the first and only country to have to live with this shame. Most countries have dirt somewhere in their past. This will follow you for centuries so to the Israelies who call every criticism or pro-palestine sentiment anti-semitic, you need to stop and offer humility. Welcome to humanity. World leaders are kind of psycho and do bad things in our name. Agreeing with them when they're harming innocents makes you bad too regardless of creed, colour, geographical location, history or religious books that might imply special people, or exemption from doing wrong. No. On a human level Israel has done monsterous things. There's no sides until Israel owns it and works to right this wrong although its going to take some doing.<br><br>Musicians shouldn't be political? Since when? Since when? This just shines a high beam on how creepy the world has become over 20 years. Ever heard of The Beatles, Green Day, The Clash, Jimmy Hendrix, System of a Down, Dixie Chicks, The S** Pistols, The Who, Manic Street Preachers, Rage Against the Machine, Marilyn Manskn, Bob Dylan... Billie Holiday? Basically, all rock music since it was rythmn and blues and all R&B since it was the spirituals has been political and for the people. Not the bllionaires. Artists can't call for peace in a stadium? Disgraceful. <br>Don't use those stadiums then artists. Thats the solution.
I hope everyone remembers this chap that after being invited, ruins another man's tour throws him under the bus for publicity for his own tour, what a snake
Ed Sheeran is full of B.S and only gave a superficial apology, that totally ignores the word genocide and crimes against humanity. He makes no mention of the reasons why, that over 20,000 innocent Palestinian children were killed by the Israeli government, which is not antisemitism. All lives matter, especially all of our children in this world.
Just digging himself deeper....
It's complex because we've allowed it to become a genocide.<br>Crap excuses by someone who doesn't really care
Music bands are a dime a dozen
Sorry for what though? I dont want to dogpile on him but he just gave a vague sorry without explaining what exactly he did wrong. I would have liked to hear that he regrets buckling to Kraft and his Cabal.
He’s not vindicated. He’s lame and clueless.
He gave a fence sitting, false equivalence, politicians answer, he’s full of $hit.
There is only one oppressor and one oppressed. This is not a “both-sides” issue!
Weird dude. Who cares?
Damage Control.
too late fella, you've already exposed You agreed and your complete lack of compassion for the murder of children. I'm sure you will still have your fans but you will never be the same person again after exposing yourself like this.
Ed Sheeran has done nothing wrong at all, he stayed neutral politically and I get that.
October 7th again...Free Palestine!
Please notice the difference in language for Oct 7 versus the genocide. The genocide is treated like an accident. People have to understand that this echoes centuries of Arab pain TOO!
"I'M SO SO SORRY! MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE CONCERT TEES ON YOUR WAY OUT! RECEIPTS FOR THIS TOUR ARE DOWN A BIT! SHALOM!"
Of course BBC didn't say "Disproportionate"
Never back down, never apologise to the mob. Stay in your beliefs.
People aren't accepting his apology, for something he didn't even do, so what's the point??
Genie side is not a complex issue at all. Just don't do it.
Putin thought he was a badass but turned out to be a comedian. <br>Zelensky thought he was a comedian but turned out to be a badass 👍✊️✊️✊️
Most exercise I get these days is shaking my head in disbelief
This is not a both sides issue. It’s not complex and this didn’t start on October 7th.
No one cares.
Up next
