US actors Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling are keeping their relationship and family life with their two daughters private. But now the 41-year-old gives an insight into this. It has to do with a "power move". Even the Mona Lisa doesn't do well there.
Ryan Gosling has shared a rare glimpse into his personal life with Eva Mendes and their two daughters, six-year-old Amada Lee and sister Esmeralda Amada, one year older, on Jimmy Fallon's 'Tonight Show'. His youngest would have a "true power move," the actor described, telling an anecdote from family life.
Accordingly, the family had visited the Louvre in France - but the world-famous art museum in Paris could not inspire the youngest. "We stood in front of the Mona Lisa and she was like, 'This museum?'" - and commented the question with a thumbs down, as Gosling imitated. When asked why she didn't like it, she replied angrily: "Because it's not good."
The little one can use the thumbs down even more derogatory, as Gosling further reports: "The real power move is: sometimes she turns around and leaves," says the actor, imitating his daughter as she puts her thumbs behind her back turns down and evaporates. As the presenter laughs out loud, Gosling reiterates that "going backwards with your thumb down" is a whole new level of shame.
In the interview, Gosling also explains why he decided to play Ken in Greta Gerwig's "Barbie" film. According to this, the script is the "best" he's ever read, but at first he wasn't sure if he was the right person for Ken. In his backyard, however, he stumbled across a Ken doll - "Face down and right next to a crushed lemon." He sent a photo of it to Gerwig and said: "I'll be your Ken, because his story has to be told."
Apparently, Ken is less important to his daughters, as becomes clear in an interview with Gosling in the "Augsburger Allgemeine Zeitung". Gosling says his daughters are only interested in Barbie. They would sometimes ask him "Why do you want to be Ken?" and claimed "Nobody wants to play with Ken!"
