Saoirse Ronan doesn't owe the public a damn thing after we've consistently mispronounced her name for the entirety of her delightful career. And yet, she gives and gives and gives.

For Ronan's most recent act of heroism, she conned Ed Sheeran into getting one of his own song titles misspelled on his arm so it reads "Galway Grill" instead of "Galway Girl."

Sheeran explained how the whole thing went down at his gig in Scotland:

He asked the Irish actress to handwrite the tattoo for him and neglected to spell check it before taking the plunge.

“It actually says Galway Grill,” said Sheeran. “Like, full on, she really took the piss out of me with this one.”

Nicely done, Saoirse.
