Ryan Gosling is going to record an album? Like a musical album? Someone’s becoming a regular Leighton Meester over here. From People:
Ryan Gosling already moonlights as a deejay – and now the actor is taking another step toward a music career. He’s releasing an album.
Just don’t expect him to go pop.
Uh, I won’t?
“What is this album, I was expecting him to go pop.” “Well you shouldn’t have expected that, didn’t you read People magazine.” “Valuable lesson learned.” That is you talking to your dad about the new Ryan Gosling album. Your dad is a real People Magazine Head.
Pitchfork has an interview with Gosling and he describes his artistic vision this way:
“You know when you’re a kid and you get crayons and papers and just draw whatever you want and it’s just a bunch of messy lines, but to you it makes sense, and then they put it on the fridge? From that point on, you’re always trying to get back on the fridge, you start drawing things that look like something, like, the more it looks like a horse, the more chance you have of getting it on the fridge. We wanted to get back to that place before we were trying to make the fridge. We wanted to work with people who hadn’t been affected in that way yet.”
OK, guys, the search is over. We have found our white Terrence Howard. (Finally. You know, that search we were all on.) Ryan Gosling, put down that guitar/bong and move my couch!

Forget music. He should be a poet with that beautiful overextended crayon/fridge analogy.
He sure got a purty mouf.
First he breaks up with Rachel McAdams, now this?? I’m so disappointed in you, Ryan.

Dude come on. That is some funny shit! Just because you’ve got a bug up your ass for Gabe doesn’t mean Ryan Gosling isn’t a self indulgent man/boy that makes up stupid metaphors for his childish behavior.
So to Ryan Gosling the record label is his Mom indulging his aimless scribblings to boost his fragile self esteem? At least it’s funny. I’m not mad at ya RG.
So you come here to complain about Gabe hating everything and being too cynical, and your comments are always about hating everything Gabe’s doing and being too cynical to enjoy some harmless e-snark. Why do you even bother Videogumming if you hate it so goddamn much? You don’t always have to agree with Gabe (and Lindsay). In fact, this would be a pretty lame blog if everyone posted “I LOVE YOUR HILARITY, GABE” for every single post. So it’d be different if you had an occasional complaint about the writers or their opinions and spent the rest of your commenting time actually adding to some sort of conversation or having something funny to say. But, seriously, all you ever do is bitch and moan about him (them). Why do you even bother?
I am starting to think that fuckoff@gabe.com is not your real email address!
i just emailed my social security number to that address.
And it wasn’t returned as unsendable.
sooo… this just took a dramatic turn for the worse.
busted
I’m starting to think that ModernManDroid and buenosueno are one person with split personality disorder…
it could be. thats the funny thing about split personality disorder… you never really know. but this personality would just have said, “gabe is a gay” and left it at that. come on, he watches entourage. what a gay.
Stop it. Just STOP IT. I’m sorry if we’re ganging up on you right now, but your comment made me actually grunt out loud. Just stop wasting your time (and ours) leaving if you hate it so much here.
please read this months DUH AFICIANADO:
- actors are lucky if they are good at acting, they always sound moronic in press quotes/talk show interviews/web blogs
- these retarded musings from actors sound even worse when cherrypicked for the worse quotes
- focusing on every syllable that dribbles out of their mouths just heightens the intensity with which our generations over-obsess on celebrities
- these random moronic musings from said actors are not indicative of their personal philosophies on life and are just candid instances
- saying one bizzarre/random/inexplicable quote is a pretty boring shallow reason to villify or pigeonhole some one and it is a lazy, boring thing to post about.
its slightly insane how passionate you are about hating on Gabe’s hates, but you do have a good point in this comment. I’m not saying which one though.
You are a boring person to listen to. YAWN. Though I think you just want attention, so you must have orgasmed when Gabe actually addressed you!! WHY GABE WHY??
JUST GIT OUT!!!!!!
Your comments make me think of this quote: “…sad, pathetic little bastards living in their parents’ basement downloading scripts and what they think is inside information about movies and actors they claim to despise, yet can’t stop discussing.” I’m with everyone else, if you don’t like VG, get the hell out of the kitchen.
That whole Brooklyn-hipster-school-teacher-drug-addict role must have really gotten to him.
Um, it kind of sounds like Ryan Gosling saw the movie Grace of My Heart when it was on TV last weekend and is trying to be like the Matt Dillion / Brian Wilson character… strange…
“I wanna make an album about childhood. Innocence. How a kid looks at things. How a kid’ll make up a song so the lyrics don’t always make sense to, uh, adults. Yeah, kids are cool.”
“If you’re a musician, I’m a musician” -Ryan Gosling
Guys, let’s just stop it. Let’s stop expecting them all to go pop. That’s classic Us!
He should name his band GuiTars and the Real Girl.
Yay! Beardzoid made a funny! Yee!
If you wanna go, we can go. I’ll see your ass outside, flaknitter01.
If J.Lo can do it, so can R.Gos.
I’ve heard the couple songs his band has released, and they’re actually pretty good. Kind of Arcade Fire-y. Let’s just say, his songz are better than his metaphorz.
But fuck listening to something before making a judgement about it. That shit is for pussies.
aw i agree! good i was starting to feel bad for actually being excited about this :/
uh yea – not that ryan’s quote isn’t ridiculous (because before you make it on the fridge, you’re doing it for THE LOVE OF ART, and after you make it on the fridge, you’re CLEARLY, as a child with fledgling motor skills, a corporate fridge whore doin’ it for all the wrong reasons… I GET IT) – but I’ve been listening to, and enjoying(!), Dead Man’s Bones for a few months now.
and i’m not getting my undies in a bunch if Gabe rips Ryan Gosling for being an idiot in interviews. Truth be told, I’ve never even watched a Ryan Gosling movie so… his music is fairing better with me.
You should watch some! I am unapologetically listening to Dead Man’s Bones right now, and I must say, as far as actor’s bands go…I am enjoying this.
Oh, there I am!
Ryan Gosling already had a musical career! He was on the Mickey Mouse Club! Yeah!
Video’s out on this already guys, and it’s okay. So let’s just all relax.

Interpol watch your backs!
I’m no publicist, but if you’re a well known actor taking a stab at another form of expression, I don’t think the best way to promote your album is suggesting that it only makes sense to you, and everyone else (i.e. your mom) is just humoring you.
Oh well. I just home he names the record “The Ryan Gosling Experience”.
I LOVE YOUR HILARITY, GABE.

Ummm, what?! I think you took a wrong turn somewhere; this isn’t emotionallydisturbedhatemonger.com.
Relax, technojeremy.

Back from retirement
Fucking HTML.
Real talk, I wonder whatever happened to the real technojeremy.
haha. “it is reckless disregard!” okay, i’ll try to disregard more carefully next time!
I’ve spent the past 26 years trying to get back on the fridge. It’s awful to have peaked at 5.
But I bet Ryan knows the difference between a gokart and a soap box car, just like he seems to know the difference between squiggly lines and a horse…. which means that Ryan wins, because I’m pretty sure Terrance Howard doesn’t.
I never got my pictures put on the fridge. Thanks for rubbing it in Ryan Gosling.
I actually kind of liked his first song that came out awhile ago http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=48956937
I am convinced that celebrities think they can use “we” in place of “I” to diffuse embarrassment for the stupid things they do.
jared leto better STEP UP.
Real talk, I wonder whatever happened to the real technojeremy.
Aw eff me. I give up, good night!
wow, so nobody saw The Believer? well, ill try to reference nore carefully next time.
Wait was that the movie where this happened?
Scene Ryan and girl in a post-coital state.
Girl: …Can you punch me in the face?
Next Scene, Girl has visible black eye and a smile.
uh, because of the link on this i had a dream last night that ryan gosling was helping my friend move. and i was all, “ryan gosling is a really nice guy. i’d put his songs on my fridge.” then i woke up. true story.
In order to survive, the young goose must learn to sing.
I’ll most likely steal this album. Not because Ryan’s a hot piece
But because his music is good.
But, seriously, he is a hot piece.
notebook raining on the gosling parade
