Ed Sheeran couldn’t date a woman with no sense of humour.
The ‘Sing’ hitmaker – who confirmed earlier this year he is dating someone out of the public eye – thinks laughter is the key to a successful relationship and couldn’t be with someone who took themselves too seriously.
Asked his favourite quality in a woman, he said: "A sense of humour. I think that’s key for any long-lasting relationship.
"[Have I ever dated anyone with no sense of humour?] I have more sense than that, but I speak to women with no sense of humour quite a lot.
"I met this model last year. Her meal for the day was a cotton ball soaked in Diet Coke. I don’t want to be friends with somebody like that."
The 23-year-old star also admitted he enjoyed selling out New York’s huge Madison Square Garden venue a lot more than losing his virginity.
Asked which feat was better, he told the new issue of America’s ELLE magazine: "Probably selling out Madison Square Garden three times.
"Losing my virginity was a benchmark in my life, but it wasn’t the best thing I’ve ever done."
The ‘A Team’ hitmaker insisted he wouldn’t be upset if his girlfriends didn’t like his music, so long as they had respect for his work.
He said: "[Could I love someone who didn’t love my music?] Yeah, yeah.
"I think there’s a difference between loving the work and respecting it. If I dated, I don’t know, a horse jockey–I’m not a massive fan of horse races, but I could still respect what the person does."
