Ed Sheeran se pronuncia sobre la polémica expulsión de Macklemore de su gira: “Yo elijo utilizar mi fama para ofrecer un espacio seguro”

Ed Sheeran has responded to the controversy surrounding Macklemore's expulsion from his tour: "I choose to use my fame to provide a safe space." The 35-year-old British singer-songwriter and his 35-year-old American touring partner, Macklemore, were embroiled in a debate after Macklemore's public support for Palestine led to calls for his removal from the Loop Tour.

This demand was fulfilled on September 14, when Macklemore announced on Instagram that he would not continue with the tour. In the statement, he expressed his intention to speak from his heart and share the truth, detailing the decision made by Sheeran and his management team to remove him from The Loop Tour.
