Ed Sheeran gave Starbucks customers a real surprise in Seattle recently. The Grammy-winning star, 32, was working behind the counter of a Starbucks in Seattle as part of the promotion for his upcoming album, Autumn Variations.
The 'Bad Habits' hitmaker donned an apron and was serving up coffee to a selection of lucky customers. His unusual day of work came after he had worked in a Lego shop.
Naturally, a huge crowd gathered outside the coffee shop, with fans pressing against the windows hoping to catch a glimpse of the singer. Ed shared a video of the event with fans, in which he said: "Hey, guys! So, I'm here in Seattle and I'm gonna go into Starbucks and launch the pumpkin spice latte for Autumn Variations, here we go."
Not only did Ed hand out the first pumpkin spice lattes of the year, but he also added to the chaos by purposely getting everyone's names wrong on their coffee cups! When a customer told him their name for their order, Ed jokingly wrote a different one on the cup.
At the end of his shift, Ed was praised by his colleagues for doing an 'amazing' job and proudly declared that he felt like 'part of the gang' with his own Starbucks uniform and name badge. He celebrated his shift with a coffee shot, and fans absolutely loved the idea of Ed having a change of career.
Ed had announced his new album a couple of days prior, with a video message for his millions of adoring fans. He explained how last autumn, he and his friends were 'going through so many life changes'. He wrote songs to capture how he and his friends viewed the world at that time, and was inspired by composer Elgar's Enigma Variations, where each of the 14 compositions were about one of his friends.
Autumn Variations is available now for pre-order, and will be released on September 29. Are you excited for Ed Sheeran's new album?
