Ryan Gosling has made his Billboard Hot 100 debut with a now-viral song featured in the “Barbie” movie. The song, titled “I’m Just Ken,” is part of the soundtrack album, “Barbie: The Album,” and has landed at No. 87 on the Hot 100 chart, as well as other charts like Hot Rock Songs, Hot Rock & Alternating Songs, and Digital Song Sales. This marks Gosling’s first appearance on the Hot 100, although he has previously appeared on other Billboard charts for his work in the 2016 film “La La Land.”
Gosling, who demonstrated his singing and dancing skills during his time on Disney Channel’s “The All New Mickey Mouse Club” as a child, came up with the idea to perform “I’m Just Ken” in the movie. According to an article in Vanity Fair, Mark Ronson, the executive producer of the soundtrack album, revealed that Gosling requested to perform the song after hearing the demo. Ronson, who co-wrote the song, was impressed by Gosling’s performance, emphasizing how well he balanced the serious and playful aspects of the song. Ronson described Gosling as a vocal powerhouse, particularly when he hit the high notes.
Gosling’s performance of “I’m Just Ken” undoubtedly confirmed director Greta Gerwig’s belief that he was the perfect choice for the role of Ken. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Gerwig stated that the role was always meant for Gosling. She explained that from the moment Margot, presumably referring to Margot Robbie, approached her about the project, she knew it was also meant for Gosling.
It’s exciting to see Ryan Gosling branching out into the music world and receiving recognition for his talents. His debut on the Billboard Hot 100 is a testament to his multi-faceted abilities, and it will be interesting to see where his musical journey takes him in the future.
