Ed Sheeran has confirmed that he will be posing naked for a calendar in support of the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
The 'Lego House' singer said that he has started a new fitness regime in order to get in shape for the raunchy shoot.
"I'm not a very confident guy when it comes to taking my clothes off," he confessed to The Sun. "I was 14 stone and I'm now 11.
"It's going to be the first time that I feel comfortable on screen. I stopped drinking and got a personal trainer. I was a bit flabby, to be fair."
Sheeran declined to name other celebrities who will be stripping off for the cause, saying only: "A lot of people are doing it. So ladies, lock up your daughters."
The 20-year-old sold over 78,000 tickets for his UK autumn tour within 24 hours of release last week.
