Ed Sheeran has confessed his love for Beyoncéduring an appearance on Atlanta’s 96.1 radio station this morning.

When asked who he thought had a better booty between Iggy Azalea and Queen Bey, the singer wisely chose the latter with good reasoning.

"Beyoncé controls all women," he explained. "Beyoncé owns women around the world. Beyoncé just has this thing, women want to be here. They want to think like her. They want to do the things that she does."

"When that album dropped, you realized how many of your mates are Beyoncé fans because I had a house party the day that it dropped—and I didn't know it was dropping, obviously all the women did—and all of the women locked themselves in a room with big speakers and listened to the album all the way through," he added.

"There were about 16 of them. And the guys were just there drinking beer playing pool we just didn't know what was going on so we went in and they were just there [singing] 'Drunk in Love'!"
