Times of India · entertainment

Comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg playfully roasted singer Ed Sheeran during her opening monologue on SNL UK. She compared the Grammy winner to a "red-headed puppet" with a hand up its rear, referencing his recent controversy with rapper Macklemore. The joke landed well with the audience, drawing laughter and cheers. This occurred after Macklemore was reportedly dropped from Sheeran's US tour following his "Free Palestine" comments, a situation Sheeran later addressed, apologizing for the handling and condemning the Gaza situation.
