Ed Sheeran has returned to the stage for his first performance following a controversy that led to the departure of several supporting acts from his US Loop Tour. Rapper Macklemore was removed from the tour after voicing support for Palestine during a performance in New Jersey.
Following Macklemore's exit, four other supporting artists also chose to leave Sheeran's tour. Despite these departures, Sheeran has proceeded with his scheduled performances, marking his return to the stage amidst the ongoing situation.
