"I used to love you, now every day I hate you just a little more / Life got better when I lost you, but every day I hate you just a little more and more and more," Sheeran croons during the catchy chorus of "A Little More." "Blame it on your history and say it's not your fault / I can't call you crazy 'cause you could be diagnosed." Emma Watson banned from driving for 6 months after hitting this shocking speed In the video, which takes place 14 years later, Grint is unable to leave the past behind when Sheeran is seen during TV appearances, on billboard ads and even at the gym.

Supreme Court rejects copyright challenge to Ed Sheeran's hit `Thinking Out Loud' When she finally meets him at the altar, the reformed stalker pulls back his bride's veil to reveal that Sheeran has taken her place, too.

But I'm so glad he did." Grint commented, "Love you 🧡" A post shared by Ed Sheeran (@teddysphotos) "It's such a fun, bonkers video. Longest video shoot I had ever done at that time, and deffo the most costume changes," Sheeran captioned the post. He added, "Rupert, my brother from another mother, thank you for throwing yourself into this, it wouldn't exist had you said no. A Little More out now x." On Aug. 8, he had another message for fans: "Overwhelming response to this song and video. Releasing something this personal always feels really bare and open, but I always find the deeper and more honest I go with lyrics, the more people connect to it." Ed Sheeran new album release date The song arrives from his new album "Play," which is set to be released next month on Friday, Sept. 12.

Ed Sheeran Reunites with Doppelgänger Rupert Grint for New Music Video, 14 Years after "Lego House"
Yara Sameh Ed Sheeran fans are in for a double treat once again. Fourteen years after the pop star first tapped Rupert Grint to play his stalker/doppelgänger in the 2011 ' Lego House ' music video, the two ginger have teamed up once again for a new music video arriving very soon. Releasing Thursday alongside a new song titled 'A Little More,' the video will feature the Harry Potter star seemingly reprising his role from the 'Lego House' visual. In a clip posted by Sheeran on Monday, Grint steps out of a prison — where he appears to have spent the past decade and a half in custody — and starts walking as the memories of his past crimes flash through his mind. The montage that plays features clips from 'Lego House,' showing Grint getting tackled after he sneaks into a concert venue and pretends to be the Grammy winner onstage. '14 years later me and @rupertgrint are reunited,' Sheeran captioned the footage. 'I had this wild idea after writing the song, and thankfully rupert was up for it. It's an utterly bonkers video for a very upbeat, fun, but angry song.' The musician also confirmed that 'A Little More' will appear on his upcoming album Play, noting that he thinks it'll be 'a lot of people's fav song' on the September-slated project. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ed Sheeran (@teddysphotos) Shortly prior to the official song announcement, Sheeran posted a funny clip of himself and Grint singing along to the lyrics. The two men have been poking fun at their similarities as fellow red-headed English stars for years. After Grint played Sheeran's obsessive fan in 'Lego House,' the Knock at the Cabin actor joked on an MTV News comedy skit that Sheeran was never a real person, but instead a character he made up. 'After Potter, all I wanted to do was stretch myself, create some real magic, so I created a character,' he said in the sketch. 'He'd have the voice of an angel, impossibly wispy facial hair. So I bought a guitar and a bunch of flannel, and I called him Ed — Ed Sheeran.' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
