Ed Sheeran is making a comeback this year, and becoming the face of TikTok is apparently part of the plan.

Ed Sheeran is said to be the new face of TikTok after signing a ‘big money’ contract with the app, according to the tabloids.

Branded a “mega deal,” Ed was apparently spotted filming with the viral video-sharing platform in London recently.

“TikTok is a huge platform for artists now and Ed can see that.

“It was something he wanted to get involved in and the project he has done with them is really exciting.”

The new deal might just be why he teamed up with Friends legend Courteney Cox, aka Monica Geller, to recreate her character’s iconic dance routine, originally with Ross (David Schwimmer).

Ed captioned it on Instagram: “Had a reunion of our own this weekend,” nodding to the long-awaited Friends reunion which aired on Thursday.

Ed’s partnership with TikTok is part of his comeback, after he seemed to announce a new album and tour when he was unveiled as the sponsor of Ipswich Town FC in May.
