Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley) Not Mad When People Think He's Ed Sheeran

During a recent appearance on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” the “Harry Potter” star spoke about his resemblance to the “Shape of You” singer.

“It’s kind of 50/50 now,” he said, adding, “If someone stops me I could go either way. I could be Ed or I could be me.” 

Ed Sheeran flat-out confuses women. On the one hand, they know he’s ugly: a doughy, tousle-haired 5’8” garden gnome firecrotch. If you were a self-respecting female and you saw him in the street, you’d throw up in your mouth. I’m a ginger, I get it.

But when you throw him on stage with a microphone and a guitar, he’ll humidify the nether regions of every female in town. My mind is telling me no, but my lust for wealthy, famous musicians is telling me yes. A perfect illustration of how women will throw their integrity out the window when it comes to guys with wealth/fame.

There aren’t many gingers that have this affect. When I was in high school, I bore a passing resemblance to Prince Harry. Before he was hot, I was categorically dismissed by the girls at my school. But then he hit that sweet spot and made it ok for girls to think gingers could be cute. I rode his coattails all the way to some serious OTPHJs.

Meanwhile, we have Rupert Grint, the most unsuccessful actor from the Harry Potter franchise, telling us he’s ok with being mistaken for Ed Sheeran. Holy shit. Of COURSE you’re ok with it you dick! Ed Sheeran is on fire right now. If I’m Ron Weasley, I’m switching my patronus to Ed’s freckly-ass and learning every word to every song he’s ever made. Learn his moves, wear his clothes, and steel his identity if you can. If you can’t be the best, do whatever you can to fool people into thinking you’re the best.
