Ryan Gosling performs I’m Just Ken from Barbie
Hollywood star Ryan Gosling performed I’m Just Ken, the hit song from the movie Barbie, live on stage at the 96th Academy Awards, in Los Angeles.
Nominated for a best original song Oscar, Gosling sang with great gusto. It was alongside 65 other “Kens”, Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash and musician Mark Ronson.
The highly anticipated performance began with Gosling serenading Margot Robbie from the seat behind her in the audience. This before taking to the bright pink stage to sing and dance with his fellow Kens. Also among them his co-stars Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir and Ncuti Gatwa.
The 43-year-old actor then returned to the crowd to get Barbie director Greta Gerwig and co-stars Robbie and America Ferrera to sing along, and stopped near his former La La Land co-star Emma Stone so she could belt out the lyrics.
The reaction in the Dolby Theatre was jubilant, with Steven Spielberg among those to give Gosling a standing ovation.
However, while Gosling won the hearts of those in the room, he did not win the Oscar for best song, losing just after his performance to singer Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas, who won for their Barbie song What Was I Made For?
