International popstar Ed Sheeran has announced his week-long residency at James Corden’s “The Late Late Show” starting next week, June 28th. Sheeran has teased his new single “Bad Habits” on TikTok which is supposed to come out tomorrow, June 25th. About the single, he said: “I’ve been working away in the studio over recent months and I can’t wait for you to hear “Bad Habits”. I always aim to push myself and my music in new directions and hopefully you’ll hear that on the new single. Feels great to be back!”
“The Late Late Show” host James Corden has confirmed that the composer of the hit “A Team” will be appearing on his show every day next week: “All next week the one, the only Ed Sheeran is going to be on the show every night,” Corden said. “A full week of Ed. We’re going to do comedy, we’re going to chat, he’s going to play… Ed Sheeran’s going to be our musical guest every night of the week. Plus, right here on The Late Late Show, he’s going to do the television debut of his brilliant new single “Bad Habits”.
“Bad Habits” is Sheeran’s big solo return after almost four years. He introduced the new song with a new look, which sees him in a horror-Esque costume with make-up, vampire teeth and a pink suit. In a promotional clip, we can hear a snippet of the song with the following lyrics: “My bad habits lead to late nights sleeping alone, conversations with a stranger I barely know”. The singer allowed TikTok users to use the sound of Sheeran’s video for their own personal creations, which turned out to be a very popular initiative: The video itself received over 250,000 likes and has been viewed 2.1 million times since its release date.
