Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran almost had a collaboration!
In an interview with SiriusXM, Sheeran made a surprising revelation about collaboration with Bieber.
The Photograph hitmaker revealed that his new song Camera was originally recorded as a duet with Bieber. However, the collaboration never made it to release.
Sheeran admitted that the track, which is part of his recent album, Play, had a complicated journey. "I wrote it for ‘=’ and then it ended up being a duet with Justin Bieber for ‘Justice’, and then it never materialised," Sheeran stated, referring to his 2021 album and the Baby hitmaker's Justice.
He added, "I’ve got a version with Justin on it. It’s pretty cool, but it just exists in the ether. Now it’s out. I think people like it."
It is worth mentioning if it had been released, Camera would have marked the third official collaboration between the two global pop stars Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran.
Their previous hits include the chart-topping I Don’t Care (2019) and the 2015 smash Love Yourself, which Sheeran co-wrote for Bieber’s Purpose album.
