'Everyone is sick of Ken': Barbie actor Ryan Gosling says he 'understands' why ... trends now
Barbie actor Ryan Gosling has admitted he 'understands' why everyone is sick of his character Ken after Emily Blunt recently declared he was 'dead'.
The actor, 43, reunited with his The Fall Guy co-star, Emily, on Saturday Night Live earlier this month - and also broke up with Ken as he hosted for the third time.
During his opening monologue, Ryan revealed to the crowd hat he had 'broken up' with his Barbie character, Ken, and sang a break-up song to prove it.
Ryan said: 'Ken and I, we had to break up. We went too deep. And it's over. So I'm not gonna talk about it,' but then added: 'I actually am gonna talk about it a little bit.'
'You know when you play a character that hard, that long, just letting go just feels like a breakup. And for processing a breakup, there's really only one thing that can help: the music of the great Taylor Swift.'

As he sang, Ryan performed to the tune of Taylor's track All Too Well. Some lyrics included: 'If I said that I was doing fine, you know I'd be lying/ Because I was just Ken, and now I'm just Ryan.'
However, after Ryan made several attempts to break into song about his struggles with letting go of Ken, Emily jumped in and said: 'Ken's dead. All right, Ken is dead.'
During a joint interview with the Sunday Times Style magazine, Emily and Ryan were told there isn't a 'huge amount left to ask about Ken'.
Emily quipped: 'You see, everyone's sick of him.', and Ryan replied that he understood.
Emily and Ryan's version of All Too Well was praised by Taylor and the Oppenheimer actress admitted she felt emotional
