RYAN GOSLING, MARK RONSON, SLASH & THE KENS - I'M JUST KEN | REACTION

[@impresarioe6824]

He’s super talented…definitely a triple threat (sing, dance and act). Before he became famous, many of us remember him from the old Disney channel show, Mickey Mouse Club. As a kid he was on there with Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, and JC Chasez. There are still old videos of them singing and dancing on here.

[@jeanieolahful]

It’s was his moment, and he obviously was having so much fun. The dancers in the foreground are the main Kens in the movie.

[@RKC-1234]

He asked if the cameraman was okay with him kissing his hand. He was!

[@donaldcase4716]

Aww, consent.

[@katie0303]

I must have watched this about 25 times at this point. It never gets old. Loved it.

[@MsLaraNichole]

The other guy playing guitar that you see at the end on the far right all in black with long hair next to Slash is Wolf Van Halen, Eddie's son.

[@MCMNasty2]

Hands down best part of the Oscars. So bummed he didn’t win supporting actor because he was so great in Barbie.

[@jabecker21]

Yeah, RDJ was fine in that role but he didn’t put half of what Ryan put into being Ken.

[@blahblahblahblah729]

Yeah but that award was RDJ's and everyone knew it

[@matthewalkman386]

he absolutely killed it. Just killed it. Amazing.

[@roboj]

what you thought was a Les Paul during the Kenergy section is actually Wolfgang Van Halen playing his EVH Signature guitar :)

[@monica11760]

oh also - there is a video where Mark Ronson is getting interviewed about writing and composing this song and he says to someone he would love to get "someone like Slash" to perform in it, and the person told him to just ask him. So Mark did. Slash apparently said yes right away, and even was familiar with how well Ryan sings.

[@dee1955]

That was a really interesting video

[@jademusic1211]

Ryan was the best part of the Oscars for me. He was amazing!🥰❤️

[@Parmen0901]

Not bad for a Canadian from Ontario. Proud!

[@Beldvlmnt]

We got somethin in the water up here!!

[@michellefuller3837]

The Oscars should be able to compete with a halftime football show. 😂

[@Craigy2818]

The four guys at the front are the actors from the movie, who play the other Kens: Ncuti Gatwa (Sex Education and Doctor Who), Simu Liu (Shang-Chi), Kingsley Ben-Adir (Secret Invasion) and Scott Evans (One Life to Live and brother of Chris Evans).

[@karinseregni221]

Better than most male super successful "singers" that chart nowadays tbh

[@JosephAmbrose_]

Without a doubt that’s true

[@susangalloway3055]

Loved it!!

[@Nay-kp6uu]

Can you name 5 that chart? Even 3

[@tejida815]

The man behind the tan. 🎶😂

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

He sings it in the movie. He planned this entire thing and used Marilyn Monroe's "Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend" from "Gentlemen Prefer Blonds" for staging. They did 3 other versions for Christmas. I like the acoustic one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJaVe2CXeZ5rqK8

[@Aqualyra]

Mandy Moore was the choreographer.

[@it6106]

yeeeeees! it's amaizing!!!

[@leisure057blank3]

Watching this performance makes me happy. And I like to see things that make me happy.

[@Colleen_OH]

Look up Dead Man’s Bones. It was a rock duo consisting of Ryan Gosling and his friend Zach Shields and was active from 2007 to 2012.

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

I love that they used kids as backup and at each concert they had a talent show. There is a documentary about it.

[@annmariemills1554]

Wish they would have showed Wolfgang Van Halen more than just a few seconds at the end🫤

[@Noneyourbusiness18]

Ryan sang before in LA LA Land, in the Mickey Mouse club, and he has a band, Dead Man's Bones.

[@laurakali6522]

Bottle the Kenergy!

[@livinginstereo]

He was on star search and the mickey mouse club with Christina Aguilera Justin Timberlake and britney spears

[@kajsablomberg]

The tribute to Marilyn Monroe and Diamonds are a girls best friend in the set and costumes is just such a brilliant detail that elevates this performance

[@shawnuel]

!00%!

[@MethosFilms]

He used to sing often in school. Yes I went to Gladstone public school with him. Sucks they decommissioned the school now.

[@Sebarguy]

SLASH te amoooo🤘🎸 y RYAN tambien 🔥🤩. Que hombres!! El trabajo de quien haya coreografeado esto es genial! 👏👏 👌

[@JeshuaSquirrel]

I love seeing these performances that just had to be so much fun to do and watch in person.

[@TheATRAs14]

Ngl I've genuinely forgotten most, if not all, of this years Oscars, I don't remember who won what, wore what, who was/wasn't there, like there's nothing rattling around in my brain about what happened at the Oscars, despite having watched the near whole thing. I do, however, remember both I'm just Ken and what was I made for performances

[@marysparks3769]

My favorite part of the 2024 Oscars!

[@JosephAmbrose_]

The background is pink probably for the video😂 perfect!

[@Beldvlmnt]

Hahaha I SMOKED that right?! 😂

[@monica11760]

Enjoyed your reaction very much -- especially because you didn't stop it every 5 seconds to say something, like so many reactors do.

[@Wico90YT]

The Gentlemen Prefer Blondes choreo was a great touch

[@FullTexanEffect]

I laughed pretty good at this.

[@Beldvlmnt]

Same bro same 😂

[@ktreolo]

I read that they had one day to prepare for this.

[@tss9886]

He was a Disney kid. They all were triple threats.

[@warisarot]

also playing is Wolfgang Van Halen!

[@diandiaz9026]

He was also in the Mickey Mouse Club years and years ago with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and I think someone else Christina Aguilera

[@carlasouza5306]

This is how you win an oscar without winning an oscar

[@debby631]

Groomed on the second edition of the Mouse Club. Ryan❤Kenergy❤

[@patgal2359]

Because he is the sexiest man on the planet in that pink suit.

[@VanillaDesu1]

fun fact: Ryan also was "Young Hercules"

[@matthewalkman386]

He sung in Blue Valentine a little bit and a couple other movies. Plus Mickey Mouse club is where h came from

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

He doesn't read music, but sang, danced and learned jazz piano for "La La Land" .kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJvdZ2qEqceth80

[@actualkarenokboomer3158]

The guys without hats in front are the other 4 main Kens from the movie and w of them had to fly in from Europe for this and here are comments from a couple of them. kzbin.infocQZb2a6IPz8

[@esinart93]

I couldn’t tell if this was supposed to be funny because I was entertained 😂 then I had to remember he was on Mickey Mouse club, so it checks out lol

[@xxShadowOfTheWolfxx]

loved the reaction! ryan did great! i know he could sing cause of la la land, but he definitely did better than excpected live and hs tone was totally different here. i would love for you to check out djo aka joe keery that played steve from stranger things. he is also a musician and his song "end of beginning" has been blowing up on tiktok few years after it's release. i think it's a great song that finally got some notice. his songs roddy and chateau are also great

[@laramorrison5973]

he was on the micky mouse club with Britney, Christina Aguilera and Justin Timberlake as a child!

[@dianeemanuel8541]

His mom had a dance studio.

[@CarbonizedStardust]

You should check out “Wake” by him. An amazing talent. ❤️

[@alexaales7937]

i am completely infatuated with the song and the amazing performance ever since Oscar night. i watch it every day :-). so bummed it did not win. so sick of brittle voice girl performances!

[@nataliebrunson1157]

Listen to Ryan Gosling's band Dead Man's Bones. He's a lot more talented than people realize. Great reaction!

[@therojowo]

You should check out La La Land; it was a musical he did with Emma Stone (who was one of the people he lent the mic to right before the end). He was nominated for best actor for it, and Emma Stone won for best actress.

[@kcn6424]

Ryan fronts a band: Dead Man's Bones. They got a couple of albums.

[@Karo__dk]

Can you please react to Billie Eilish Oscar performance of “What was I made for”?😊☺️

[@Beldvlmnt]

Oooh absolutely

[@soaringkite2673]

You do realize that this was an homage to “Gentlemen Prefer Blonds” and more specifically to Marilyn Monroe’s “ Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend “?

[@kbob9625]

Should watch la la land if you want more of his singing.

[@Somer-set]

i get Bryan Ferry vibes

[@dawnsacks5161]

Watch la La land city of stars incredible

[@jabecker21]

Absolutely love this performance but oh man, I’m glad you said that about Slash’s thin guitar tone. I’ve been saying that for 30 years. He’s a great player, and his guitar sounds great on the GnR records, but his live tone has always sucked.

[@Falwashere]

Now react to billie eilish on the 2024 oscars pleaseeee

[@hrussell9677]

Why do you have words over the video? Other reactors don’t.

[@traydaniel0403]

Now we just need Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Timothee Chalamet, and Anne Hathaway to all appear in a Barbie sequel, especially Emma Stone as either any type of Barbie or Barbie’s best friend Midge, who falls in love with Ryan Gosling’s Ken and Cillian Murphy as a human version of Ken in the real-world, who’s Sasha’s teacher, and love interest of human version of Margot Robbie’s Barbie (who now goes by Barbara Handler; since she was named after the inventor of Barbie Ruth Handler’s daughter). I also hope the rest of the original cast comes back like America Ferrera, Ariana Greenblatt, Michael Cera, Scott Evans, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Alexandra Shipp, Dua Lipa, John Cena, Helen Mirren (Narrator), and Will Ferrell. Let’s hope that Greta Gerwig and Margot both bring back composer and songwriter Mark Ronson to write more songs, and maybe add Jack Antonoff, who’s known for in a rock band called Fun, and write & produce some songs with Lana Del Rey and Taylor Swift. What if a Barbie sequel could be a musicial? Not to mention we also need a Barbie Musicial Broadway soon too. That would be so much Kenergy right now! And Kenough! 💖

[@qtrust]

Don’t fully understand how people can enjoy a 3 minute song, when it’s being paused every minute or so.

[@sharonkendell-j4r]

l can’t see ken

[@rigsby1454]

This didn't win best original song...

[@mcm0324]

There is nothing good about this stupid movie. They will all look back on it and regret it. Ryan Gosling is way too talented to play such a terrible party in an awful movie!

[@jademusic1211]

Obviously, Ryan disagreed, and the majority of us are so glad he did!😄

[@birdsinparadise3113]

Yes, the producers and studio totally regret making 1.5 billon on a movie in 3 months. I don't know how they will ever recover having played iconic beloved characters in such a delightful way. The Oscars chose 2 barbie songs nominated. I've seen other award shows chose 3 of the songs. Nominations for almost every category across a half dozen types of awards. Best supporting actor nomination for Gosling which I'm sure he's totally regretting every day Because nobody wants an oscar
