Gosling was hosting SNL this weekend when he performed the reworked rendition of Swift’s ‘Red‘ classic for his opening monologue.
The actor was joined by Emily Blunt – who played Kitty in Oppenheimer and stars alongside Gosling in their new film The Fall Guy – when they drew a line under the Barbenheimer phenomenon that surrounded their respective Oscar-nominated roles.

“Must confess, we’re a mess, doing press / Now it’s time to wish Ken, Kitty, both of us, farewell,” they sang together.
Now Swift has shared her reaction to the musical skit. “All Too Well (Ryan and Emily’s Version) !!!” the singer wrote on social media.
“Watch me accidentally catch myself singing this version on tour. This monologue is EVERYTHING.”
Gosling’s rendition comes after he performed a showstopping version of ‘I’m Just Ken’ at this year’s Oscars alongside Mark Ronson and Slash.
Swift, meanwhile, is preparing to release her next album called ‘The Tortured Poets Department’, which arrives on April 19.
‘The Tortured Poets Department’ will mark Swift’s 11th studio album. It follows her 2022 record ‘Midnights’, and more recently the singer’s re-recordings of ‘Speak Now’ and ‘1989’.
She has since opened up about how writing the new record was “really a lifeline for me” to help her through “the things I was going through” at the time.
“It kind of reminded me of why songwriting is something that actually gets me through my life, and I never had an album where I needed songwriting more than I needed it on ‘Tortured Poets’,” she said during an ‘Eras’ show in Melbourne this February.
She’s already teased some lyrics from the album and revealed the fourth and final variant of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’.
