Ed Sheeran couldn't stop laughing at Ariana's 'big balls' quip

Los Angeles - Ed Sheeran couldn't stop laughing at the Victoria's Secret fashion show after Ariana Grande told him she loves "big black balls".

The Thinking Out Loud hitmaker has revealed the 21-year-old singer made the admission as the pair chatted during the event earlier this month as giant inflatable spheres fell around them.

The 23-year-old star - who performed on the runway alongside the Break Free singer, Taylor Swift and Hozier during the star-studded show - was spotted in hysterics as he exchanged words with the brunette beauty.

Ed has now admitted he isn't sure if the former Disney star was aware she had made an innuendo with her comical comment.

In an interview with Z100, he said: "Can I tell you why I was laughing? Basically there were all these big inflatable bouncy black balls that are bouncing around in the crowd on the finale bit."

"Ariana Grande comes up and stands up next to me and just looks at me and goes, 'I love big black balls.'"

"I just burst out laughing, because in my head I was like, 'If she knows what that means then I love her, and if she doesn't know what that means, it's even better.'"

Ed also confessed to feeling small like "a hobbit" as the Victoria's Secret beauties strutted their stuff down the runway at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre in London earlier this month, and explained the gleeful look on his face during the performance was simply because he was "happy" to be surrounded by the stunners.

The Don't singer - who is dating Athina Andrelos - explained: "It's just pictures of me being happy. I was there to do my job as much as everyone else was there to do their job...

"It was fun, but I kind of felt like The Hobbit in the Elvin Kingdom because everyone was so tall."
