Ed Sheeran turned heads on Sunday when he stepped out alongside Benny Blanco for an upmarket sushi dinner in LA wearing an orange jumper.
Teaming his bright top with a pair of black trousers and red high-top trainers, the Shape Of You hit-maker, 30, looked typically trendy when he stepped out on the west coast at the end of the weekend.
Benny, 33, also opted for a colourful ensemble, donning a pair of tie-dye trousers and a patterned shirt worn with white sandals.

The songwriter went mask-free for the outing, while Ed’s face mask was pulled down.
Ed and Benny appeared deep in conversation as they left the restaurant.
The musicians were later seen chatting to friends before hopping into a car.
A day earlier, Ed teamed up with Courtney Cox and Elton John for a hilarious rendition of Elton’s hit Tiny Dancer.

Just two weeks after Courtney’s Friends co-star Lisa Kudrow sat down for a duet with Lady Gaga during the Friends reunion, the Golden Globe nominee collaborated with Elton, 74, Ed, and Brandi Carlile, 40, for a short Instagram video.
‘Lisa Kudrow, this one’s for you,’ Ed said as he locked eyes with the camera, before the group burst into song.
It follows news Ed is reportedly set to become the face of social media app TikTok after signing a ‘big money deal’.

He is said to have already begun filming with TikTok in London with the app viewing the partnership with the artist as a ‘big success’.
A source told The Sun: ‘It is a huge coup to get someone as big as Ed on board and everyone is really excited about the end result.
‘TikTok is a huge platform for artists now and Ed can see that. ‘It was something he wanted to get involved in and the project he has done with them is really exciting.’
MailOnline has approached representatives of Ed Sheeran for comment.
Ed sent fans into a frenzy last month after appearing to hint at possible new music in a cryptic social media post.
He took to Instagram to share a photograph of himself holding a guitar as he teased in the caption: ‘Somethings cookin’.’

In the snap, shared with his 32million followers, Ed sat on a stone wall with his back facing towards the camera.
Fans were quick to react to the post as they asked whether Ed was releasing a new album and admitted that they had ‘missed’ the singer.
Ed hasn’t released an album since 2019 when No. 6 Collaborations Project was produced.

That studio album featured work alongside other artists such as Justin Bieber, Camila Cabello, Travis Scott, Eminem, 50 Cent and Cardi B – among others.
While in December 2020 he made a surprise comeback with his single Afterglow following almost 18 months off.
An insider source added that Ed sees a partnership with TikTok as a potential new avenue for him to advertise his upcoming work.
