Ed Sheeran can understand Justin Bieber's "struggle" with a mop bucket.
Earlier this month the Baby singer was caught on tape urinating into the cleaning equipment at a restaurant in New York City.
While the star has had a lot of stick for the incident, Ed is a little more understanding.
The musician was rumoured to be dating Justin's on/off girlfriend Selena Gomez, but the 22-year-old brushed off the gossip by bringing up the star's embarrassing moment.
"Well she's dating Bieber, isn't she? And he's p**sing in mop buckets," Ed countered when quizzed on Selena by MTV News.
"I p**sed in a bin once... On a bus. Really late at night after a festival. So I can appreciate Bieber's struggle."
During the clip, Justin is also filmed having a random rant at former US President Bill Clinton.
The singer sprays a picture of the politician with cleaning liquid and exclaims: "F**k Bill Clinton!"
"I do like Bill Clinton though," UK star Ed continued.
"I met Bill Clinton; he's a very nice guy. Yeah, Bill Clinton's cool. But that's kind of like the equivalent of me sh*tting in a shoebox and saying I didn't like the queen."
Justin has since reached out to Bill to apologise for the incident.
The politician advised the 19-year-old to pick his friends wisely before accepting the apology.
“@billclinton thanks for taking the time to talk Mr President. Your words meant alot. #greatguy (sic)," Justin wrote on Twitter afterwards.
Meanwhile it's been reported Justin and Selena have rekindled their romance after the singer promised to "change his ways".
