However, something that also caught the attention of many people is that, in addition to Ryan, responsible for playing the classic Ken, the performance also featured special participation from other Kens from the film. Are they: Simu Liu, Scott Evans, Kingsley Ben-Adir It is Ncuti Gatwa.
It is worth remembering that, in the original scene, all versions of Ken also participate in the song, while reflecting the difficulties of being “just Ken”. Watch again!
‘Barbie’ at the Oscars
At the 2024 Oscars, “Barbie” was up for seven awards, however, it emerged victorious in just one category: “Best Original Song” with “What Was I Made For?”, performed by Billie Eilishwhere “I’m Just Ken” was also in the running.
Another moment that also caught a lot of attention was the presenter’s speech Jimmy Kimmel at the beginning of the ceremony, where he acknowledged that the Academy was wrong in not nominating the director Greta Gerwig in the “Best Direction” category.
While praising the production, saying it was one of the biggest hits of the year, Kimmel took the opportunity to needle the Academy regarding the filmmaker’s nomination.
“[…] Now, ‘Barbie’ is a feminist icon thanks to Greta Gerwig, who deserved to be nominated for ‘Best Director’. I know you’re applauding, but it was you [membros da Academia] who didn’t vote for her, by the way. Don’t act as if you had nothing to do with this”, said the presenter.
Check out the moment!
