Sheeran reveals 'Shape of You' originally written for Rihanna

Singer Ed Sheeran says that he wrote half his brand new track "Shape of You" while keeping Rihanna in mind.
The 25-year-old singing sensation, who returned to the music scene after a gap of a year, revealed that he debated handing his bouncy new tune over to Rihanna after he was done writing it, reported Billboard.
"('Shape of You') is actually a really random one because I went in to write songs for other people with a guy called Steve Mac and Johnny McDaid, and we were writing this song and I was like 'this would really work for Rihanna'," he said.

"But then I started singing lyrics like putting 'Van The Man on the jukebox' and I was like well, 'She's not really going to sing that, is she?' And then we sort of decided halfway through that we were just going to make it for me.
