Eva Mendes is just as excited for "Barbie" as the rest of us. On 15 May, the actor showed off her new merch inspired by the upcoming Greta Gerwig film [1]: a t-shirt with Ryan Gosling's Ken plastered across the front. "Got that real big Kenergy. Coz girls is players too," she captioned her Instagram post. The white shirt features a photo of her longtime partner with bleach-blonde hair [2] and his spray-tanned abs [3] on full display in a denim vest. She rolled the sleeves and paired it with light-wash jeans before posing in front of a wooden fence.
Mendes has been Gosling's biggest cheerleader since he landed the role of Ken. When first-look photos from the movie dropped last summer, she shared Gosling's on Instagram [4] (the same shot from her t-shirt) and wrote, "So. F. Funny. So. F. Good. So F excited for you to see this…#Thatsmyken." The following month, Gosling mentioned Mendes's social media shoutout [5] during a BBC "The One ShowW interview, sharing, "She's been very supportive. She's supporting my Kenergy. She started a hashtag, #Thatsmyken, which meant a lot to me." Mendes recently disclosed that she won't be joining Gosling on the red carpet [6] during his "Barbie" press tour to avoid "exposing our very private life that we value."
Red carpet absences aside, fans clearly can't get enough of Mendes's "Barbie" t-shirt. The comments section of her Instagram post has been flooded with inquiries about where she scored the piece, with one follower writing, "Girl you can't just post a glorious shirt then not say where to buy it!" and another adding, "respectfully i NEED this top." It appears that Mendes scored it from Redbubble, just like the "From Director Greta Gerwig" tee Gosling wore [7] at CinemaCon — perhaps the couple had their own shopping spree on the website? The exact shirt is in stock online for less than £20, along with several other shirt styles and colours. Shop them ahead before "Barbie" hits theatres this July.
