At a certain time and I think it still is you're saying it is

Was it well I'm involved now, but yeah it was

It was Mila Kunis, but now but now she's married and pregnant

You know just was one you and then you got a girlfriend, but this was your less. Thank you win

the point well done is they awkward Edie if you say oh I fancy Mila Kunis and then all of a sudden near the most

Famous person in America and Mila Kunis knows who you are and Mila Kunis knows that you fancy her

Well, the last time I said, it was like 2012. So that was at a point where she definitely wouldn't have

Taylor Swift where did Ed Sheeran grow up answers on a board? Okay

Is that correct

I didn't even know that either born Yorkshire raised suffer the place where you were born is the place where your birth happened

Now to raise somebody is to take care of a person until they are grown

So to be raised is another way of saying to grow up if you grew up or spent your childhood

Living in a specific city, you can say you were raised there

Example I was born in raised in Colorado

It seems like a lovely environment to raise a child in

Oh, by the way

You're more than welcome to look under any of the furniture because believe me you won't find any porn or cigarettes under there

Tyler next question for you, who is Ed Sheeran's celebrity crush?

To have a crush on somebody is to have romantic feelings for someone

Especially someone you do not know. Well in the case of this question Taylor is being asked what celebrity Edie has a crush on

Me got my secret crushes here Mila Kunis my secret crush

Was it well I'm

involved now

But yeah in the context of personal relationships to be involved is to have an active exclusive romantic relationship ed

Sheeran is married nowadays, but back when this interview happened, he was already in a relationship with his then girlfriend

Is it awkward Edie if you say oh I fancy Mila Kunis and then all of a sudden near the most famous person in America

And Mila Kunis knows who you are. You probably know that as an adjective fancy to find something that is expensive

Sophisticated or connected with a high-class way of life in the context of their conversation though

We can hear the verb to fancy to fancy

Somebody is to be sexually attracted by somebody when referring to objects

It could also simply mean that you have a desire for it. This is very commonly used in British English

Example, I thought he fancied me. So I asked him out on a date

Do you fancy going out for a meal after work?

Is it awkward Edie if you say oh I fancy Mila Kunis and then all of a sudden near the most famous person in America

And Mila Kunis knows who you are. If something happens all of a sudden it happens quickly and without being expected without warning

Seems like all of a sudden so much is happening. I know Ross is getting married Phoebe's making people

everybody's doing stuff

so

Let's see. If you both think of the same thing the moment you crossed over from being musical pals to like Genoa we're friends

What do I what do I write like this is the city the time the time? Yeah

Experience the exchange of texts the love letter whatever it was Taylor. Are you remembering the first time you thought we're friends?

Yeah, I mean, yeah

I mean I mind might be a different time than his cuz I mean I was sold very easily

But I might have had to earn

You're saying

No, Phoenix right in a song in it

I walked in the room. I thought maybe I would have taken it like maybe six months for you to like me

mad cuz I

Walked in because I didn't really know I didn't really know what was gonna happen and I walked in and I was just greeted by

Cat I was I are sound this will be fun

The moment you crust over from being musical pals to like Genoa we're friends Pal is an informal word for a friend

You know, what is an informal expression used to indicate that you're going to say something interesting or surprising next?

Example she lied to me again, but you know what? I really just don't care anymore

The game the game you always money for the game

How does another answer already?

And you know what we want a rematch what's following we could use the money

the moment you crossed over from being musical pals to like Genoa from being musical house like

The moment you crossed over from being musical pals to like Genoa we're friends

Taylor are you remembering the first time you thought we're friends?

Yeah, I mean, yeah

I mean I've mind might be a different time than his cuz I mean I was sold very easily but as you know to sell

Normally refers to giving something in exchange for money in this case, though

Taylor is saying that she was sold very easily on her friendship with Edie

Meaning that she was convinced or started believing that they were friends very quickly without the need of developing the relationship for too long

Example after seeing the presentation I'm sold on this investment

Let's do it on the other hand. If someone is not sold easily it would mean they are difficult to convince

Example I wasn't sold on spending our vacation on a cruise. I fancied doing something more adventurous

You're saying

No Phoenix right in a song in it Phoenix at the capital city of the state of Arizona in United States in it is a

Slang way of saying isn't it ed is just asking Taylor if she agrees with him

I

Walked in because I didn't really know I didn't really know what was gonna happen and I walked in and I was just greeted by

Cat I was I are sound this this would be fun to be greeted

It is to be welcomed by somebody with particular words or actions

In this case it is saying that tailors cat came to greet him as he went inside and I walked in on a wolves in

And I walked in and I was just greeted by cat

I was like sound this this will be fun

Sound is a British slang expression that is used the same way as the expression cool used in American English

Example how you doing sound man?

Hey, are you and Ed Sheeran fan?

Well, I just created this playlist with all of our lessons teaching you with Ed Sheeran and his music

You can watch that after you finish this one by clicking up here and down in the description below you

Were really nice and there was chocolate

You know that that sold me actually because I I always looked

like American performers as just people that eat grapes once a day and just

Just kind of like I'm just gonna inhale some air. You know, I just had a gust of wind

I'm caught I was I was expecting to go there and be like, ah

Can I have a burger if Taylor's gonna have a leaf of salad and then she's like right let's get burgers

I was like sound called your animal style. Um adds American accent is my favorite

I had some error and I don't know

Okay, that means you do know each other very very well because you both got three all which means we go to the tiebreaker

How many views has your duet?

Everything has changed had on YouTube

It doesn't it's completely irrelevant

But we were in a rush and this is all we could think of this is my question

Both of you the nearest answer wins

So you both write down how many views has everything has changed had on YouTube as of 7:45 this morning

Okay at straight away with an answer there. Let's start with you Ed you're saying I think is 106 million ornately enough

106 million near enough that it's too

300 million because I just do because I'm cuz I'm optimistic

The correct answer is a hundred and eleven million four hundred ninety eight thousand four hundred ninety nine

Which means ed sheeran you are the winner

Rana Plaza ed sheeran

you get to

there

You were really nice and there was chocolate

Burger in an out burger is an American fast-food restaurant chain tailor is saying that they ordered burgers from in and out

you know that that sold me actually because I I always looked like

American performers as just people that eat grapes once a day here ed says he used to think American singers were all very strict

about their diet

So he jokes that he was expecting an artist such as Taylor to only eat once a day

Having some light fruit such as grapes as a meal

I always looked at like American performers as just people that eat grapes once a day and just just kind of like oh

I'm just gonna inhale some air, you know. Oh, I just had a gust of wind

I'm cool

When we inhale we take air into our lungs through our noses and mouths then we exhale or breathe the air out again

Because of what he was previously

joking about the idea

He had of American artists diets IDI is now joking that he thought Taylor would be satisfied having air as an option for food

I'm just kind of like oh, I'm just gonna inhale some air, you know. Oh, I just had a gust of wind

I'm cool a gust is a strong a short flow or burst of air and wind is moving air or a breeze if

You say you are cool. It means you are satisfied. You don't need anything anymore

Example, do you need help finishing that project? No, I'm cool. I'll finish it in about 15 minutes

Ross Ross over here, man. I say Jesse

That's okay, I'm cool over here. I'll catch up with you later. Enjoy I

Was expecting to go there and be like, ah, can I have a burger if Taylor's gonna have a leaf of salad man?

She's like right let's let's get burgers. I was like sound cool a leaf is a part of a tree or plant

That is usually flat thin and green like in this picture a leaf of salad would be for example a piece of lettuce

By the way, maybe you notice that when Ed says this he's imitating an American accent

Although not very well, and then Taylor makes fun of it. Just kind of like, oh, I'm just gonna inhale some air, you know

Oh, I just had a gust of wind. I'm cold Ed's American accent is my favorite. Can I have a burger?

Burger I had some air and I don't know I like

It's interesting to note that oftentimes when non American English speakers tried to do an American accent

They over exaggerate the nasality

While the American accent is more nasal than other English accents

If you are trying to sound like an American be sure to avoid overdoing it as that does here then she's like, right

Let's get bug as long as I sound cold you animal style. The host is asking if they ordered their burgers animal-style

That is a special way in which the in-and-out restaurants can prepare your burger where they also add more ingredients to it
