While Boris Johnson may be pleased to learn that Ed Sheeran has been mistaken for him, the 23-year-old singer was dismayed when a member of the public mistook him for the 50-year-old Mayor of London.
Someone just mistook me for Boris Johnson and I wish I was joking

Sheeran hasn’t always been so unhappy to be associated with a Conservative politician. He previously dedicated a song to the Prime Minister. ‘I was playing this gig at some guy’s house and it was a very, very intimate environment, and they stopped the gig and I only had one song left,’ Sheeran recalled. ‘He was like ‘I’m so happy that you came here Ed. Obviously David Cameron is here, would you dedicate a song to him?’ And I was like “Oh … I’ve only got The A Team left to sing”.’ The song Sheeran performed is about a woman who sells her body on the streets to pay for her drug habit.
