It's been 239 years since the U.S. declared its independence from the British – but to some pop-rockers, it apparently still feels like yesterday.

We kid, but so did Ed Sheeran when he turned up after Taylor Swift's pretty spectacular July Fourth party in a pretty spectacular red coat. (Get it?)

Swift, a close friend, posted the resulting "confrontation," complete with flag-waving, on Instagram with this caption: "When Ed shows up in a red coat for the 4th of July because he just can't let it go."
