I love sharing with you things that absolutely BRIGHTEN my day, and this week’s song/video is one of those things! 🩷🩷🩷

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the performance of “I’m Just Ken” from this year’s Oscars.

Lyrics:

It doesn’t seem to matter what I do
I’m always the number two
No one knows how hard I tried, oh-oh, I
Have feelings I can’t explain
Drivin’ me insane
All my life, been so polite
I’ll sleep alone tonight
I’m just Ken, anywhere else I’d be a ten
Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility?
I’m just Ken
Where I see love, she sees a friend
What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?
I wanna know what’s like to love, to be the real thing
Is it a crime? Am I not hot when I’m in my feelings?
Is my moment finally here? Am I dreaming?
I’m no dreamer
Can you feel the Kenergy?
Feels so real, my Kenergy
Won’t you feel the Kenergy?
I’m just Ken, anywhere else I’d be a ten
Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blonde fragility?
I’m just Ken
Where I see love, she sees a friend
What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?
I’m just Ken (and I’m enough)
And I’m great at doing stuff
So, hey, check me out, yeah, I’m just Ken
My name’s Ken (and so am I)
Put that manly hand in mine
So, hey, world, check me out, yeah, I’m just Ken
Baby, I’m just Ken

What do you think of this performance?

I LOVE how Ryan Gosling begins singing in the audience and appears wearing a pink rhinestone suit! 🩷

It makes me giggle the way the Kens hold up ten fingers when he says “Anywhere else I’d be a ten.” 😁

I especially enjoy how Ryan caresses the Ken’s faces. 🤣

I didn’t realize at first that he is also wearing pink gloves! How stylish! 🩷

It’s fantastic when the other Kens hold him up in the air and spin him around! 😍

I also LOVE that Slash is part of this performance and that Ryan rests his arm on his shoulder while he plays. 😆

I enjoy the way Ryan smiles when he spins around one of the dancers and gets a kiss on his cheek. 😃

This performance just puts a HUGE SMILE on my face! My face hurts from smiling so much! 😉

I hope this week’s post brightened your day! 🌞

I hope to see you at Sunday’s show! 💛

Wishing you well! 💙
