Ryan Gosling rocked at the Oscars! His performance is compared to Marilyn Monroe’s iconic scene

The song “I’m Just Ken” performed by Ryan Gosling was nominated for an Oscar in the “Best Song” category. Although the song ultimately did not win an award, for many it will remain the most characteristic song of the evening. The actor put on a phenomenal show, making the entire audience dance. Moreover, movie lovers noticed a certain similarity. Gosling’s performance is very similar to the famous scene of descending the stairs with Marilyn Monroe.

Last year, Ryan Gosling was talked about like rarely before. All because of his participation in the famous production of “Barbie” by Greta Gerwig, in which he played the role of Ken. The film about the most popular doll in the world was nominated for Oscars in eight competitions, of which two awards could go to the 43-year-old star.

It’s about nominations in the “Best Supporting Actor” and “Best Song” categories. In the latter category, the production even won a statuette, but it went to Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell for the song “What Was I Made For?” Gosling had to do it with taste, but he still stole the show at one point when he performed the song “I’m Just Ken” live during the 96th Academy Awards.

The actor appeared on stage in a pink and sparkling suit and had a classic cowboy hat on his head. This outfit was a reference to the movie “Barbie”, but Internet users also thought of an association with another production. A spectacular performance full of expressive movements by Goslin and the professional dancers accompanying him reminded some of the iconic scene from the movie “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes”, where the carefree blonde Lorelei (Marilyn Monroe) sings “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” while descending the stairs in the company of dancing men.

The atmosphere of a comedy from the silver years of Hollywood disappeared towards the end of the performance, when Slash unexpectedly appeared on the stage of the Dolby Theater and gave the performance a real edge. The guitarist of Guns N’ Roses performed a special solo for the song from “Barbie”, but unlike the singer, he did not wear a pink suit. He appeared in his characteristic dark styling with a dark top hat on his head.

However, regardless of what Gosling’s performance is associated with, the actor looked very pleased. Those who were sitting in the first rows were the luckiest, because the actor ran up to them while singing and put the microphone in front of them. No one had the courage to refuse him! In turn, moviegoers are impressed by the performance because they are now sure that the actor did not sing from playback. The recording immediately went viral and is extremely popular on the X platform.
