As if the world needed more reasons to love Greta Gerwig's "Barbie" masterpiece, a new behind-the-scenes clip of Ryan Gosling practicing his show-stopping musical number, "I'm Just Ken," is now making the rounds.
As reported by Variety, the clip shows Gosling rehearsing alongside his fellow Ken co-stars, including Simu Liu and Ncuti Gatwa.
In the four-minute featurette, Gosling steals our heart all over again and manages to make Gerwig burst with laughter as he strips off his white fur coat. Then the video intercuts with Gosling practicing in dance studio clad in sweatpants and a backwards hat.
Just as "Barbie" became a hit, "I'm Just Ken" has found success as well on TikTok, putting Gosling on the Billboard charts at No. 87. on the Hot 100, No. 4 on Hot Rock Songs and No. 5 on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, Variety reports.
The song also scored 5.2 million U.S. streams in its first week, and the cherry on top is Gosling's on-screen performance of the song. It's a sight to see and you can see him practice it below.
