Ryan Gosling's thoughts on the nomination

In a statement posted on Instagram, Ryan also mentioned his disappointment: "No recognition would be possible for anyone on the film without their talent, grit and genius. To say that I’m disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement.” He added, “Against all odds with nothing but a couple of soulless, scantily clad and thankfully crotchless dolls, they made us laugh, they broke our hearts, they pushed the culture, and they made history. Their work should be recognized along with the other very deserving nominees.”

Gosling signed off, saying, “Having said that, I am so happy for America Ferrera and the other incredible artists who contributed their talents to making this such a groundbreaking film.” Robbie and Gerwig have yet to address their snubs publicly.

The tipster continued, “If he does win or if he performs, I’m Just Ken, he will honor Margot and Greta in one way or another.”
