Ed Sheeran will perform at the Brit Awards 2017.
The singer-songwriter took to Twitter this morning to announce the news, and also unveiled a new Ed emoji.

Speaking of Sheeran’s upcoming performance, Brit Awards chairman Jason Iley said this morning: “Ed continues to be one of the most exciting, innovative artists in the world – constantly pushing boundaries with everything he does. This year’s exclusive performance will be a very special moment for the 37th Brit Awards.”
Sheeran is gearing up to release third album Friday ÷ on March 3. Tickets for his accompanying world tour went on sale last Thursday, with many fans missing out on tickets.
Last week it was announced that Dermot O’Leary and Emma Willis are to host the Brit Awards 2017. They replace Michael Bublé, who sadly confirmed in November that his three-year-old son, Noah, is battling cancer.
This year’s Brit Awards take place at London’s The O2 on Wednesday 22nd February.
