Ryan Gosling is still giving off Kenergy vibes. 

For Greta Gerwig’s 40th birthday, Gosling decided to give her the best Ken-inspired gift he could: a flash mob that sang a mashup of the most popular songs from her new hit film Barbie. He gathered a large group of Barbies and Kens to perform a dance number for the director. 

The flash mob surprised Gerwig at her Pilates class and began with a bunch of Kens dancing to Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken” and a group of Barbies later joining to perform Dua Lipa’s song “Dance the Night.” They ended the performance by yelling “Happy Birthday Greta!” 

Gerwig can be seen in the background of the video holding her face in her hands and crying from joy as she hugged all the performers. 

She commented, “That was so beautiful. Who are you?” To which everybody laughed.

The person who filmed the video tried to get Gerwig to guess who planned the surprise, but she had “no idea.” When the hint “think of a bagpiper” was given Gerwig knew exactly who it was and replied with, “Oh my god.” 

“Bagpiper” was referring to a time when the Babie actresses had a sleepover hosted by Margot Robbie, which included Issa Rae, Emma Mackey, Alexandra Shipp and American Ferrera, the Kens were not invited. Gosling decided to send a Scottish man to perform the bagpipes for the women while reciting the Braveheart speech.

The video was posted on the Barbie movie’s Instagram account alongside the caption, “As Kens know…. Sometimes the only way to express your feelings is through song & dance!”

“Ken Ryan sent these special Barbies and Kens to start Greta’s birthday with all the feelings!!”

“I’m Just Ken” recently hit spot number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100. In addition to this, it also debuted a spot number 2 on the Billboard 200.
