Ed Sheeran declared that his Saturday night show in Philadelphia was the “best” of his life — despite the controversy and backlash that occurred in the week leading up to it.
Sheeran found himself embroiled in controversy after his support act, rapper Macklemore, was dropped from the tour over pro-Palestinian remarks he made on stage. The fallout continued when Sheeran’s other opening acts withdrew, while protesters gathered outside Saturday’s show.
