London: Singer Ed Sheeran has defended his lion tattoo, saying he doesn't understand why people have made such a fuss over it.
The "Thinking out loud" hitmaker caused quite a stir when he showed off his new inking and later even took to Twitter to defend it, reports www.mirror.co.uk.
"I like it and that's the only opinion that matters," Sheeran replied to a fan who said they hoped it was just a big prank.
Speaking to Rolling Stone magazine, the artist had said: "I don't really know why people make such a big fuss out of it."
"I'm sure (David) Beckham has some s**t on him, some sort of Chinese art that no one would find that strange. But they find me putting something that symbolises me playing the biggest venue in England weird."
