‘Barbie‘ movie has received a lot of attention since its premiere, and one performance in particular that everyone adored was Ryan Gosling’s song ‘I’m Just Ken‘. The song gained popularity due to its significant meaning and the excellent addition of Gosling’s humor.
On the night of the Academy Awards, Gosling won applause for bringing out his inner Ken on the stage. His performance was the event’s highlight and uplifted the mood of attendees. People had some funny reactions to his performance, one being Emma Stone’s dress disaster. Similarly, actress Kristen Stewart also shared how she felt “emotional” during his performance.
Kristen Stewart Cried Over Ken’s Performance
Kristen Stewart acknowledged being a huge fan of the ‘Barbie‘ movie and expressed her admiration for it. She described how she was more into strange toys as a child and wasn’t a huge Barbie fan, but that changed later on and she became a “super duper fan” of the movie. A little side note, even the film’s director Greta Gerwig’s mother never let her play with Barbie dolls.
On a podcast with ‘Not Skinny But Not Fat‘ which was recorded on the day of The Academy Awards, Stewart revealed how Ryan Gosling’s ‘I’m Just Ken‘ performance made her emotional and she started crying. She asked the host Amanda Hirsch “Oscars were incredible last night. Best they’ve been in years, I feel. Don’t you think it was just a good show?
Stewart revealed the true reason for her asking the question by saying, “I was, for some reason, crying and laughing while watching the Ken thing. It’s emotional, dude, watching Greta watch it. When they did the one cutaway of her and she was just, like, front-row belting and looking at the thing she helped kickstart.”
It was just Ken’s magic that flooded her with emotions and Stewart wasn’t alone here.
