Sheeran apologises for signing chaos

Ed Sheeran has apologised to his fans in Canada after a signing session was cut short due to security reasons.

The A Team hitmaker is supporting Snow Patrol on their tour of the U.S. and Canada, and to mark their gig in Toronto on Wednesday, Sheeran staged a fan meeting.

But the session got out of control and had to be ended early, prompting the singer to take to his Twitter.com page to apologise to his disappointed followers.

In a series of posts, he writes, "So sorry that the signing was cut short, it was security reasons, out of my control, im back here in the autumn. I appreciate every single fan of mine in every single country, you guys are the bomb, thank you for existing."
