Ed Sheeran opened up about the time he hit Justin Bieber to The Guardian.com. He said, “We’d been to a dive bar in Japan. He drank water and I got hammered.
We went to a golf course and he lay on the floor and put a golf ball in his mouth and told me to hit it out of his mouth.

“I was like, ‘F*ck, I need to aim this properly,’ and I swung. And you know in films when someone gets punched, and you hear that fake sound? But in real life when someone gets punched, you hear a sickening thud? I heard a sound like that and his security guard looked at me with a horrified expression. I’d cracked Justin Bieber right in the cheek with a golf club. That was one of those ‘What the f*ck?’ moments (sic).”
