London, Nov 10 (IANS): Singer Ed Sheeran has got a tattoo of a cup of tea inked onto his arm.

He chose to get himself inked during a live radio appearance, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The "Drunk" singer added a picture of a steaming cup with a tea bag label hanging over the side on his upper left arm while he appeared on Bauer Radio show "In:Demand" here Wednesday night.

He chose the design himself, after being asked what he wanted to get, he replied: "Maybe a pie, or a cup of tea?"

The tattoo artist made three versions of the design, and Sheeran picked the largest version, held it up against his arm and said: "Yep that's cool!"

Sheeran has several tattoos including a ginger bread man, the label from a can of Heinz tomato soup, and the title of Taylor Swift's new album, "Red".
