Ed Sheeran has revealed that despite his huge worldwide success, he still buyshis underwear from high-street store Primark.

During an interview with Q magazine, the Thinking Out Loud singer was asked what he does when he gets a day off, leaving Ed to reply: "On a day off I'll just watch films and eat chocolate in my underwear."

[related]The publication then probed Sheeran over what his preferred brand of briefs were, to which he quipped: "Primark. No one sees them, they’re only meant to keep your junk in."

In the same interview, the 23-year old went on to credit being British for his success in the US, stating: "Being English just goes a long way in Hollywood.

"I benefited from it, not sexually, professionally! Everyone thinks you’re kooky and fun."

He concluded: "I was at parties, meeting people and thought, 'All this could end tomorrow, I better do it all now'.

"I did everything I should’ve done – and everything I shouldn’t."

Sheeran also graces the front cover of Q, which is out on Tuesday (November 25).
