Yeah that was Slash. He actually worked on the song as well

[@dashkataey1740]

And the big guy next to him on the guitar is Wolfgang Van Halen.

[@birdsinparadise3113]

Both on the soundtrack

[@Snarkerella]

That's the real Slash AND Wolfgang Van Halen!

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

All 4 of the other major Kens are in there, Simu, Ncuti Gatwa, Kingsley Ben-Adir and Scott Evans.

In essence, The Doctor made an Oscar appearance!

[@rubytuesday7225]

I adore Ryan Gosling ❤

[@babeage]

Definitely was Slash. Truly one of the best guitarists in the industry. A really fun number.

[@debbiemcnamara7059]

It is Slash! He does the guitar in the song.

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

Homage to Marilyn Monroe doing "Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend" in "Gentlemen Prefer Blonds."

[@birdsinparadise3113]

I saw something about that being an Oscar performance for best song at the time but I see nothing indicating that was s thing

[@laurakali6522]

Slash and Wolfgang Van Halen played on the original track.

[@LeoRichVids]

Yes, it's "Just Slash" as much as this is "Just Ken" 🤣💀

Now we just need Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Timothee Chalamet, Anne Hathaway, and Gal Gadot to appear in a Barbie sequel, with Emma Stone as Barbie’s best friend Midge who’s in love with Ryan’s Ken, and Cillian Murphy as Human Ken in the real-world, who’s Sasha’s (Ariana Greenblatt) teacher, and the love interest of Margot’s human stereotypical Barbie (Barbara Handler) in a Barbie sequel whenever Greta and Margot are planning on doing it right after when Greta gets done filming Chronicle of Narnia on Netflix. I DO hope that the original actors like America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Ariana Greenblatt, Will Ferrell, Kingsley Ben-Adir (who also played Raggae singer Bob Marley in Bob Marley: One Love) Scott Evans, Alexandra Shipp, Michael Cera, Dua Lipa, and John Cena (Mermaid Ken) appear in the sequel too. Also, I think they should bring back Mark Ronson to compose and write more songs for the sequel (probably make it a musical this time) and probably for a Ken movie and Allan spin-off. We definitely need a musical broadway. Let’s start a petition!

If all the names you mention will be alive in the future

[@robynhurley5119]

Thats slash!

[@sparkles999rose2]

He looks like he dresses as Layne Stanley from Alice in chains with the pink

[@silvialilianastoessel7200]

[@paul1x1]

What is this is this the real show

[@StephanieBarrett-xq2wx]

Stop laughing

I'm sorry, I don't want to be rude, but... why did you bother making this video? You didn't even really say anything about the performance. You thought that could've been someone cosplaying as Slash even though you could hear him playing guitar... you seemed disdainful of the movie stars' wealth... this was completely pointless...
