Ed Sheeran Trades His Guitar For Chris Hemsworth’s Hammer From ‘Thor’
Ed Sheeran attends The BRIT Awards 2022 at The O2 Arena on February 08, 2022 in London, England. Chris Hemsworth attends the 2022 AACTA Awards Presented By Foxtel Group at the Hordern on December 07, 2022 in Sydney, Australia.
Chris Hemsworth and Ed Sheeran are trading their prized “trade tools.” The singer-songwriter joined the Thor: Love and Thunder star on Instagram Sunday (February 19), gifting him a guitar in exchange for Thor’s mighty hammer: “Mjølnir.”
“Just an instrumental trade-off between two blokes,” Hemsworth, 39, captioned playful video footage of the exchange. “Ed Sheeran I’ll make this guitar sing like no other and you swing that hammer with all your soul. Love you brother!” In the video, Sheeran, 32, presents Hemsworth with one of his acoustic guitars. “One of my stage guitars,” he says, taking it out of the case.
“Wow,” Hemsworth says as he takes the guitar, then presents Sheeran with the hammer. “This is my own weapon of choice,” the Marvel actor jokes. After they both sign each other’s “instruments,” the “Shape of You” singer poses with the hammer behind text written by Hemsworth over the clip that says “WORTHY!” Sheeran even jokes that the two should trade professions after the trade-off, to which Hemsworth says, “You hold that better than me!”
If only Sheeran knew where the actor kept Mjølnir, he might not have been as excited to trade. In an interview with Extra last year, Hemsworth revealed where he stores the hammer. “It kind of varies in its location from the toy box to the mantlepiece,” he joked. “It quickly gets taken off there and ends up in the bathroom.”
Sheeran posted the exchange on his Instagram page as well, with the caption: “Swapsies. I think I got the better end of the deal tbh.” The singer, who celebrated his birthday on Friday, performed in Australia over the weekend after five years from being in the country. “3 shows to 180,000 people in Brisbane for my birthday, great way to turn 32 ! Love being back in Australia x,” he captioned the clip on Instagram. After the concert, Sheeran’s team sang the smiling singer “Happy Birthday” to him.
These Celebrities Have February Birthdays
February may be the shortest month of the year with just 28 days (29 on a leap year), but there are plenty of celebrities born in the second month of the year! People born in February are either Aquarius (born between February 1 and 18) or Pisces (February 19 to 28/29). Unique, highly intellectual, and creative, Aquarius can be an enigma to others but never to themselves. Air sign Aquarius is represented by the water bearer, the mystical healer who bestows water, or life, upon the land. They are the last of the air signs, and of all the zodiac signs, Aquarius is the most innovative, progressive, rebellious, and humanitarian. Aquariuses are known to be intellectual and curious, often interested in conspiracy theories and out-of-this-world thoughts.
Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the planet that governs innovation, technology, and surprising events. This perfectly complements Aquarius’ nontraditional nature. Aquarius also have a reputation for being cold and detached, sometimes so focused on their plans that they neglect their family and friends. Even though Aquarius can let the present slip away from them, their free-spirited and eccentric personalities make them so charismatic.
Meanwhile, February Pisces are typically the most stereotypical Pisces. Since February-born Pisceans are ruled purely by Neptune, they tend to embody those dreamlike and creative qualities. This can be both a strength and weakness, making Pisces born in February natural creatives who excel at channeling their deep feelings into meaningful works of art. Regardless, Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, making it the most wise and psychic of all the other signs. There is much to be learned by Pisces, who tend to live half in a dream state. Represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions, the constant division of Pisces’s attention between fantasy and reality is seen as this yin-yang symbol.
It is no surprise that many talented actors and musicians are born in the month of February. See below which of your favorite stars have a February birthday!
