Ed Sheeran fan pulled away by security

A singer Ed Sheeran fan was pulled away by security after storming the stage here to meet her idol.

The English singer was here for the Australia leg of his 'Divide' tour, focusing on his #1 album of the same name. But one fan clearly was overwhelmed to see her favourite star in the flesh, and had to get a closer look.

In a video footage taken by an audience member, a fan is seen running on stage, seemingly from the backstage area, towards the singer, reports mirror.co.uk.

They shake hands before the singer tells the fan: "You've got to go now."

The camera moves away but when it returns to the action, the stage invader is seen being wrestled and pulled away from the star by three security guards.

Sheeran, not showing his concern, moves across the stage, guitar in hand, and prepares the crowd for another song.

He called out to fans on the mic: "This is gonna be the final song of the night, I need you to use your voices on this one. Please put your hands in the air."
