Ed Sheeran leaves co-host Ruby Rose blushing as he cracks X-rated joke minutes into the 2015 MTV EMAs ceremony... before asking if she wants to play 'hide the banana'

He's known as one of the nicest men in pop, but he's also famous for his cheeky sense of humour.

And when Ed Sheeran took on hosting duties at the 2015 MTV EMAs alongside Ruby Rose, at Milan's Mediolanum Forum on Sunday night, he couldn't resist cracking some jokes at her expense.

Only minutes into the ceremony, as the 29-year-old Australian actress joked about being as cute as kitten, the singer, 24, turned the air blue as he remarked: 'That's a beautiful p***y.'

Striding onto the stage in Italy with the Orange Is The New Black star, the pair both looked suitably stylish in their respective outfits.

But Ed let his dapper and genteel veneer drop only a few minutes into the ceremony as the pair joked about Ruby not being cute.

Following the Don't singer telling Ruby that he would teach her to be cute if she taught him how to be a bad ass, the actress pointed to a picture of a kitten photoshopped with her trademark quiff.

Go for the classic black dress with a twist

"One rose says more than the dozen"-Wendy Craig

Well isn't that the truth! Ruby Rose looked absolutely stunning with her various outfit swaps as she hosted the MTV EMA's.

Our favorite by far is her black strapless gown with lip embellishments along with 'LOVE RUBY' written across her chest...there's nothing wrong with self love!

Her dress is a custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture dress which in translation means...you can't buy it..Womp..Womp..Womp!

But as the image flashed up, Ed stole Ruby's thunder by cheekily snapping out his double entendre with a wry grin on his face.

And while Ruby struggled to stifle a surprised chuckle, the tattooed actress couldn't help but blush as the crowd laughed and cheered at the singer/songwriter's joke.

At odds with the base humour being bandied about on-stage, both Ed and Ruby dressed up for the ceremony.

Almost giving viewers and the crowd a taste of things to come, Ed kept up his innuendo laden jokes throughout the ceremony.

Following one of her many wardrobe changes, Ruby - dressed in a plunging white suit - were sat in the crowd for a segment.

Holding a banana in one hand, and with a mischievous grin on his cherub-like features, the I See Fire singer looked into the models eyes and asked if she wanted to 'play hide the banana'.
