Ryan Gosling is living his Ken life to the fullest, which essentially means that he’s stepping aside to let the women in his life have the spotlight. The Canadian actor attended the world premiere of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles on Sunday, July 9, in a pink suit, but the star of his ensemble was a subtle pendant necklace bearing the initial E, presumably in honor of his partner of 12 years, Eva Mendes.

Ryan Gosling wore a salmon pink suit which included a single-breasted jacket and slim-fit trousers. Underneath, he wore a pale pink button-down shirt, with the top buttons undone to reveal his chest and the E necklace.

The E is in the same font as the iconic Barbie B logo we all know so well, thanks to both the doll’s and the film’s branding. For footwear, he wore ivory lace-up loafers. His skin looked glowy and sun-kissed, but in a way that suggests he’s serious about SPF, and he wore his blonde hair combed to one side in an intentionally messy, beachy style.

Last year, Kenergy’s biggest supporter Eva Mendes revealed she and Gosling got secretly married at some point. She’s been in a relationship with Gosling since the pair met on the set of the 2012 film The Place Beyond the Pines. They have two daughters, Esmeralda and Amada, and keep their private life extremely private and mysterious: Although they have been together for over a decade and continue to pursue their careers in the entertainment industry, there are only a few public photos of the couple together.

The Kenergy is strong in Ryan Gosling, who you can see as Ken in Barbie, which hits theaters on July 21.
