Producer Benny Blanco recently teamed with Ed Sheeran to narrate his day in the life vlog. The result is hilarious.
In an Instagram post from Sheeran, he documented his day. “Filmed a day in the life and had @itsbennyblanco narrate it for the lols,” his caption read.
It begins with a sleepy Sheeran after just waking up. Throughout the day, he listens to records, rides his bike, does some painting, and goes on a run. It is a jam-packed day that includes him going to Ipswich Town F.C.'s training facility and shooting around with the other players. By the end, he is eating dinner with his wife.
The montage goes fast, and Blanco has a hard time catching up. He also jokes that packs too much into the day. When Sheeran is painting, he is wearing a protective suit over his clothes (it is a place where you paint on the floor). That is when Blanco delivers his funniest line, “And now I'm… killing someone? Oh, I guess I'm painting. I just do art now.”

He also jokes that Sheeran looks like he had a Crayon explode on him. There were other times when Blanco had no idea what Sheeran was doing, only adding to the hilarity of the video.
