Singer and songwriter Ed Sheeran opened up about his past and said that there were times when he didn't even have a place to take a shower.

The 22-year-old, who is currently supporting Taylor Swift on her "Red" tour, admits he was forced to sit on the London Underground train all day as he had nowhere else to go.

"Sometimes when I didn't have a place to shower, I'd wait for the Tube to open up at 5am and sit on the Circle Line and go round and round. I wouldn't shower," Daily Star newspaper quoted Sheeran as saying, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I couch surfed and floor surfed sometimes. Once I was staying at this student house and had a shower, but didn't have a towel. This lad had a Green Day poster, I literally just scraped the water off with it," added Sheeran.

Sheeran also said that since becoming a global star, his cleanliness has improved.

"Now, I shower every day," he said.
