Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran has given the nod to Harry Styles over One Direction bandmates Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson.

It is nothing personal and Ed is close to the entire band 1D, but after writing their single 'Little Things', Ed admitted Harry, 18, is his favorite.

He said: ''Harry is the one I'm closest to. I made friends with him before I know who the band was.''

Ed is also close to Harry's former girlfriend Taylor Swift but has ruled out a romantic relationship with her.

He told People magazine: ''We met by just being fans of each other and reaching out. Then we just started hanging out. We have the same kind of work ethic. But I don't know if I'm her type.''

However, the 'A Team' singer admitted he would love to date Emma Stone, who is currently in a relationship with Andrew Garfield.

He said: ''Emma Stone is my dream girl but she's all taken so I need to find someone else.''
