Ed Sheeran comes out swinging for NZ in Aussie interview - 'They are better at rugby'. Channel 7 / Sunday Night
Ed Sheeran has declared his undying love for New Zealand - by trolling an Australian TV reporter.
In an interview with TVNZ's Sunday programme superstar Ed Sheeran told Australian interviewer Angela Cox from Channel 7's Sunday Night show: "I do really really love New Zealand."
When asked why, he replied:"Why are you getting so uppity? Do Australians not like New Zealanders or something?"
He added, somewhat cheekily: "What, because they're better at rugby?"
"Ouch, he's coming out swinging today," Cox responded.
