The NSFW gift Courteney Cox keeps getting from Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran kicked off his week-long residency on The Late Late Show With James Corden Monday, where he revealed the hilarious NSFW prank he has continuously pulled on Courteney Cox.

Sheeran met Cox in 2013 through mutual friends, and they quickly became close, resulting in an open invitation for him to stay at her Malibu home whenever he’s in town. Sheeran took her up on that offer, and it was during one of his stays that he had an idea.

“She has this Alexa thing in her house, and she goes, ‘Isn’t this wonderful? This is my Alexa. I can just order whatever on this.’ So she walks out of the room, and — do you know what a gimp mask is?” Sheeran stopped to ask Corden, who assured Sheeran that he indeed knows what one is. “So she walks out of the room,” Sheeran continued, “And I go, ‘Alexa, order me a gimp mask.’”

But Cox was not the first one to see the unexpected order.

“Unbeknownst to me, Courteney’s assistant found it,” Sheeran said. “She opened the — she opened the post and she finds this mask, and instantly goes, ‘Oh, I don’t think I was meant to see that’ and leaves it on Courteney’s bed. And Courteney comes up and she’s like, ‘Where did this come from?’”

But Cox’s assistant was just the first of many unsuspecting visitors to become victims of Sheerans’s prank.

“Now when I go back there, I order her another gimp mask. She has maybe, like, 12. I hide them in people’s bedrooms. So they’ll go in the drawer and find a leather S&M mask,” Sheeran said with a laugh. “She had two people come and look at her piano to try and buy it, two absolute strangers going into her house that I found out about. So I left a couple of masks on the piano.”

Sheeran and Cox have been such close friends, that he said he stays with her literally every time he’s in L.A., and even introduced her to her boyfriend, which may be why she isn’t angry about the dozen or so S&M masks she now owns. Cox even sent Sheeran a video of her putting on a mask and thanking him for his 30th birthday.

But Sheeran’s giving spirit doesn’t end with Cox. He brought a mask for Corden, who briefly wore it, comparing it to a full-coverage sleep mask.

The Late Late Show With James Corden airs weeknights at 12:35 a.m. on CBS.
