Courteney Cox and Ed Sheeran
It turns out the Friends star has quite the group of, well, friends. Courteney Cox and Ed Sheeran began their unlikely friendship way back in 2013, and the British crooner even crashed at Cox's house for three months so he could focus on his music. "There was no rent, but I made the bed and cups of tea and things like that," said Sheeran of his time with the actress. Of course, he quickly paid back the favour by introducing Cox to her long-time partner, Snow Patrol's Johnny McDaid.
