In a casual interview with Radio Slam, Ed Sheeran opens up on how the ginger
episode of South Park impacted his life both in a good way and a bad way.
Sheeran shared that there was a time that he was bullied for his red hair but
there was also the time when people told him they love his red hair and this red
hair played a positive role in his career too.

Back in 2005, South Park released an episode that was titled 'Ginger Kids'
(S09E11). The episode shows an obnoxious Eric Cartman who is believed to have
caught "gingervitis" which leads him to waking up with red hair, pale skin, and
freckles.

The reality behind the episode is that Stan and Kyle actually used skin bleach
and tattoos as payback for Cartman saying red-headed people can't survive in
sunlight and have no souls.

The episode eventually became a cult classic and holds an 8.8/10 rating on IMDb.

Ed Sheeran opened up about his life in the UK, growing up with red hair: "Having
red hair in England was always a thing that people took the p*** out of you for.
But it was never something in America. People never knew what a ginger was in
America."

Sheeran says that after the episode aired, the attitudes of people changed:
"That episode of South Park f****** ruined my life. I was going to America and
everyone was like 'I love your hair dude.' And I was like 'Oh my God, people
like my hair?'

"And then I remember that episode coming out and that was just it worldwide for
the rest of my life."

Even though the impact the episode created on 'Shape of You' was drastic, but
still, Sheeran is a big fan of the show and said he would be interested in
lending his voice for a future episode if the invitation was ever extended.

A few years back, Sheeran shared he was bullied in part for his red hair, but
being ginger helped him in his career too.

Speaking to Take 40, per Capital FM, Sheeran revealed: "I think everyone goes
through a bit of bullying at school. Of course you get picked on for certain
things, but I think it ends up being a positive.

"I was quite a weird kid when I was little, I wore big glasses, had hearing
problems, had a stutter and I had ginger hair, but I am now a successful
musician and I have nothing to complain about."

Sheeran added: "Being ginger can seem like a bad thing when you are young but as
a musician it has been my saving grace – because if you see a ginger kid on TV
and there is only one messy-haired ginger kid who plays guitar, it is very easy
to find them on YouTube."
