Despite Eva Mendes’ initial announcement that she would not be attending any red carpets with her longtime partner Ryan Gosling during the awards season, her support for him remains unwavering. She took to Instagram to share that she had opted out of the glitz and glamour of the 96th Academy Awards’ red carpet to stand by her “man” behind the scenes. Eva revealed on social media that she was by Ryan’s side backstage at the rehearsals for the Oscars, giving fans a glimpse of her outfit and posing outside his dressing room as he prepared for his big night.
Ryan Gosling, the Canadian-American actor, has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role in the popular movie “Barbie,” where he plays the character of Ken. Known for his scene-stealing performance, Ryan is also set to perform his signature himbo power ballad “I’m Just Ken” at the ceremony. The song is nominated for Best Original Song, and fans are looking forward to his performance. Despite being together for over a decade and sharing two daughters, Eva and Ryan have only made one red carpet appearance together at the premiere of “The Place Beyond the Pines” back in 2012, the movie where their romance began.
Earlier in the year, when “Barbie” started gaining recognition and was considered a potential awards contender, a fan expressed their wish to see Eva Mendes with Ryan Gosling during the awards season. Eva responded graciously, mentioning that they do not often attend such events together. She explained that the photos she posts are mainly because they are already public. While Ryan has been seen attending various premieres and award ceremonies for “Barbie” solo, he has garnered support from his fans and colleagues for his upcoming performance at the Oscars.
Though initially hesitant about performing the song at the Oscars, Ryan’s co-star and “Barbie” producer Margot Robbie revealed that he was excited about it. She praised Ryan’s enthusiasm and predicted that his performance would be a highlight of the night. Ryan himself expressed openness to the idea of performing but mentioned that the Academy had not officially asked him to do so yet. Despite the uncertainty, both Ryan and his fans are eagerly anticipating the Oscars and his potential performance.
Eva Mendes’ decision to support Ryan Gosling behind the scenes at the Oscars showcases the strength of their relationship and her unwavering support for his career. While their red carpet appearances together may be limited, their bond remains strong. Ryan’s nomination and upcoming performance at the Oscars have generated significant excitement among fans and colleagues, with many looking forward to seeing him shine on stage. As the awards season unfolds, all eyes will be on Ryan Gosling and his performance at the prestigious event.
