Ryan Gosling Wows Everyone With His Oscars Performance

Gosling just wrapped up his jaw-dropping "I'm Just Ken" performance at the Oscars which featured an orchestra, dancing Kens and more Barbie heads to complete the stage.

Producer Molly McNearney said, "Ryan Gosling is a true professional, that man - we met with him on Zooms months ago, talking about that performance. Greta Gerwig weighed in creatively as well. He was so committed to it. His choreographer, Mandy Moore, is exceptional - she was on all the calls. So was Mark Ronson."

Per McNearney, Gosling wanted to pay tribute to "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" from "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" - and he successfully rocked it.
