Watch Ryan Gosling get celebrities to take the mic during his Oscars 2024 Barbie performance

He outdid himself.

We knew Ryan Gosling would be a highlight of the 2024 Oscars, but we weren't prepared for pyrotechnics, celeb cameos and many many sexy Kens to join him on stage.

Dressed in a pink bedazzled suit and some slick shades, Ryan gave the first -and potentially only - live performance of 'I'm Just Ken' 110%.

We definitely felt his kenergy when he went to the crowd to get Greta Gerwig and the cast of Barbie involved in a sing-along as Slash killed it with his guitar solo.

Teasing the performance earlier today, the song's writer and producer Mark Ronson hyped the heck out of Ryan's performance.

"It's [an] absolutely bananas spectacle," Ronson told E!'s Laverne Cox. "We're only ever gonna get to perform this song maybe once with Ryan."

"We were backstage saying before like, 'We can't believe we're a part of this,'" he added about the rehearsals. "It's very exciting."

YES IT WAS.

And now we're gonna be repeating "I'm Just Ken. da-da-da-da-da-da 10" in our heads for the next month!

Ryan Gosling was nominated for an Oscar today for his hilariously brilliant role as Ken in Greta Gerwig's 'Barbie' film, but lost out to the equally talented Robert Downey Jr. for his role in 'Oppenheimer'.

'I'm Just Ken' was also up against four other tunes - including the winning Billie Eilish 'Barbie' track 'What Was I Made For' - in the best original song category. He may not have taken home a trophy, but he's still a winner in our eyes after that incredible performance.
