Ryan Gosling looks unimpressed at winning an award for the song I'm Just Ken

Hollywood icon Ryan Gosling left fans in stitches when he looked less than impressed about winning an award for the song I'm Just Ken.

The Barbie star looked horrified after it was announced that I'm Just Ken from Barbie was named Best Original Song at the Critics Choice Awards.


Raising his eyebrows and looking a little taken aback, the actor's expression was quick to make the rounds on social media, with many saying that it will soon be a meme.

Gosling didn't go on stage to accept the gong, but writers Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt did pay tribute to the actor while accepting the honour.

Ronson said: "Ryan Gosling, this is as much your award as ours. You made the audience fall in love with this song with your matchless performance, so thank you."

Even though Ronson gushed over the star, all fans could discuss online was Gosling's hilarious deadpan expression when the winner was announced.

One person said: "I'm still laughing at Ryan Gosling's face hahahaha." Another penned: "Yoooo Ryan Gosling's face on the "I'm just Ken" song SENT ME!"

While a third wrote: "Bro was flabbergasted he thought it was a prank," while someone else added: "We did it boys. We memed our way into success."

A fourth person then said: "I can literally smell the memes already..." While a fifth added: "Another meme is born."

A user said that Gosling's dry expression was just like the character he played in the film and penned: "Ryan Gosling being surprised “I'm just Ken” won is so I'm Just Ken of him.'

A user said that the actor had the 'best reaction to an award', while another said, "Ryan Gosling a mean girl totally fetching it yeahhhhhh."

Ronson also paid tribute to Greta Gerwig and her co-writer, husband Noah Baumbach after accepting the award for Barbie.

He said: "The fact that you carved out 11 minutes for this prog-rock, power-ballad, dream-ballet, shred fest so the boys could cry and hold hands a little too, we're really forever in your debt for that."

Barbie also scooped up the award for Best Comedy while the film Oppenheimer won Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor with Robert Downey Junior.

Oppenheimer also won Best Director with Christopher Nolan and Best Acting Ensemble.

The gongs for Best Supporting Actress and Best Actor went to Da'Vine Jo Randolph and Paul Giamatti respectively from The Holdovers and Emma Stone won Best Actress for her performance in Poor Things.
