Fair to say Ed Sheeran rocked all of our Tuesdays when his latest music video dropped to inform us he could actually, totally and utterly dance.

Californian Brittany, who is 20 years old, appeared on Season 10 of American TV dance show 'So You Think You Can Dance'.

The petite brunette, who sweeps Ed off his feet and even has him play air guitar on her leg in the 'Thinking Out Loud' video is formally trained in Latin, ballroom, ballet, jazz and contemporary dance.

And having started dancing at the mere age of three, it's fair to say she's had PLENTY of experience at moving her body.

A quick snoop of her social media suggests that she's had *quite* the summer teaching British star Ed the moves, hanging out with him after rehearsals and even heading down to a gig on his US tour.

She captioned this shot: "Thanks @teddysphotos for the best first concert ever! #X #edsheeran"

Jealous. Us?

The flame-haired popstar had been keeping his moves all very quiet - but he can hide it no more after he revealed his new music video this afternoon.

Forget the current crop of Strictly Come Dancing 2014 celebrities, because it's Ed flipping Sheeran who's got the moves.

The 23-year-old musician ballroom got over his fear of being his own music videos in the visual accompaniment to his new single 'Thinking Out Loud'.

And it's not just any old appearance - as he makes the fan world melt with a load of emotionally-loaded dance moves, WHILST WEARING A BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH-STYLE WAISTCOAT.

It's the stuff dreams are made of.

Ed confessed to his fans on Twitter just moments before unveiling the video that he'd been perfecting a new skill, tweeting:

And a source told us that Ed secretly trained for five hours a day whilst on tour in the US last month to get ready for this video.

And oh, wouldn't Anton Du Beke be proud.

Anyone else think he should sign up for the next series of Strictly? Right OK yep.

The single is out November 23rd. Tattoo it to your eyeballs.
