Ryan Compensates For Breaking The ‘Ken’ Code
The issue involves not only Ryan but yet another popular personality. Yes! You got that right. It is Jimin from BTS. The fact remains that in the Barbie movie, we find Ryan donning a black Western-style outfit with white embroidered flowers and tassels. He topped this with a white cowboy hat and pink bandana. In a recent tweet uploaded from the official Barbie Twitter handle, Ryan apologised to Jimin for the similarity between his dress to that which Jimin wore in the “Permission to Dance” video.
Explaining his apology, he said that he has broken the ‘Ken’ code by biting ‘another Ken’s style’. Thus, as a token of apology, he offered his ‘most prized possession’, the guitar of Ken from the Barbie movie. He further added that he does not play the guitar and so Jimin would make the best use of it.

Ryan Thomas Gosling was born on November 12, 1980, at St. Joseph’s Hospital in London, Ontario. His dad, Thomas Ray Gosling, worked as a travelling salesman for a paper mill, and his mom, Donna, was a secretary. When Ryan was 13 years old, his parents separated, and he and his older sister Mandi went to live with their mother. As far as his educational background is concerned, Gosling went to Gladstone Public School, then Cornwall Collegiate and Vocational School, and finally Lester B. Pearson High School for his education.
From a young age, Gosling loved performing in front of people, and his sister, who was also a performer, encouraged him. They even sang together at weddings. He got involved with his uncle’s Elvis Presley tribute act called Elvis Perry and also joined a local ballet company. Performing made him feel good about himself because people praised him for it. He wanted to sound tough, so as a child, he developed a unique way of speaking, inspired by Marlon Brando’s accent. When he was 17, he decided to leave high school to pursue his acting career full-time.
