Ed Sheeran slams American award shows for being "filled with resentment and hatred"

New York Post

After performing at the VMAs, Sheeran told The Julia Show on Tuesday that he doesn't like attending U.S. award shows because “the room is filled with resentment and hatred toward everyone else and it’s quite an uncomfortable atmosphere." He added: “All the artists are sweet people, but they’re, like, surrounded by entourages that want them to win, too, so it’s one artist surrounded by 10 people and another artist surrounded by 10 people and everyone is kind of giving each other the side-eye."
