Ryan Gosling's performance of the hit song "I'm Just Ken" from "Barbie" could not have been more eagerly awaited! And even though the actor didn't end up winning an Oscar for the song, he delivered in a pink glitter suit and created a great atmosphere!

Dressed in a pink suit - a tribute to Marilyn Monroe's pink dress in the video for "Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend" - and accompanied by many dancers, Ryan Gosling was celebrated during his performance of the "Barbie" song "I'm Just Ken". Together with Slash, he rocked the stage as Ken.

The latter made a surprise appearance for an exuberant guitar solo. His "Barbie" colleagues Simu Liu and Ben Kingsley-Adair also supported Gosling in the energetic dance performance.

"I'm Just Ken" lost out to Eilish's song
The song was nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Song. Although the performance was a complete success, the song ultimately lost out to Billie Eilish and Finnea's original song "What Was I Made For", a title that was also written for the "Barbie" film.
