think you spoke at least half of that wish into existence, so kudos to you dude. any other predictions you're manifesting at the moment? who's winning best picture? i'm gonna put twenty bucks on your choice. don't sell yourself short, pretty sure there's lots of people you'd wanna see them shorts return. hi there simu, i'm chace and i'm jealous that you got to be on selling sunset. it's my guilty pleasure reality show and i'm gutted i've not been invited to appear. yet.

[famesimu]

I think we all realized I'm Just Ken was going to be nominated when we saw Ryan's reaction to winning the Critic's Choice Awards. It was like... oh yeah, this song is just that iconic. I feel like it's a safe bet that Oppenheimer will sweep a lot of awards. But I'm willing to be proven differently. Hey, Chace, great to meet you, man. Right? I can't believe some of the things I've been invited to be a part of, the past few years. Who knows, maybe you'll get on it soon.

——- She was and i couldn't be happier for her -- she's a real talent , isn't she ? i'm definitely not , she's amazing in so many ways . oh , thank you ! that's actually the show that got me into her . jonah was into amy and i was into america , just took a bit before i could say something , you know ? that was a good movie but seems this one got you bigger . you have some great work under your belt though .

[famesimu]

She is! So glad she's getting such great recognition. How long did it take for you to realize those feelings and make a move? I'm always fascinated by how people end up getting together, every story is so different. Thanks, man, I've gotten really lucky with projects, these past few years. At least enough that my parents aren't still getting me to take up accounting again.

I know what you mean. I can't say I have been to many awards ceremonies though. I am glad to hear you are doing great. I am fine, thank you. Having family time.

[famesimu]

Have you not? I guess they're not easy to get invited to, especially depending on the industry you're in. I'm lucky to have been invited to a few now, and it's still weird to get invited along, honestly.

[jvnolee]

That scene is so iconic for me, because I've been there. Standing backstage, minding my business when one of the staff members comes over and sprays something somewhere I don't feel it needs to be! Ditto. I'll be rewatching tonight. Yep, that's me! My main unit is NCT Dream. Makes it easier to whittle me down. I mean... not gonna lie, I heard your name dropped at least a million times a week when that movie hit the cinemas. Not lying to feed your ego, either! Truly. @famesimu

[famesimu]

It's so weird, right? Like I just have to assume that whoever that person is knows what they're doing and aren't just some random person who's walked in off the street. Alright, I'll try to remember that. One day I'll find the time to catch up with every K-pop star and all that stuff, but I might need a lifetime to do that. Really? That's nice to know. All I heard about was Ryan, Margot, and Michael Cera, because who doesn't love Allan?

[jackscunie]

The pleasure is all mine, my man! Lap that attention up! You've earned it, dude. Worked your ass off in those tiny booty shorts. Nah, you've got skills~ I feel like a rookie next to them as well. No idea why they invited my lame ass to join their crew, but eternally grateful. @famesimu

[famesimu]

Thank you, Jackson, I'm trying my best to soak it all in and not take all this for granted, because I could wake up tomorrow and be back to a regular day job again. Probably because you're a star, man. Meanwhile I'm just an actor who used to be a stuntman. Not so exciting. I just know how to do flips and sometimes shake my ass.

[thecillianmurphys]

You definitely do and that song deserves it. I appreciate the wins for my film, but you guys gave that song such a life. Are you holding out okay? Should I send over books on horses for you?

[famesimu]

The magic of the song is all Ryan's doing. How could I say no to an offer like that? Send them over, dude!

[mamma-mazz-hf]

I will wen I get the chance. Well, for little while it is a dress, but if not, then its dungarees or Spandex. So quite a bit different than shorts.

[famesimu]

That... sounds like a combination that could only be Mamma Mia, right? Do I know my musicals enough?

[naomiiwattss]

especially now that the nominees are out, maybe all the kens should make an apparition but this woulnd't be as good as if could be without the Barbies. we can dream about it, because most of the time the ceremony is not that good. it's been a while since i was attended one though. thank you! likewise. How is this crazy awards season treating you? or are you working and not allowed to have some fun?

[famesimu]

It would feel weird being on stage performing without the Barbies there, too, they deserve way more recognition than us Kens anyway! I think it depends on the year and the host, sometimes it's a lot of fun. My experiences so far have been pretty good, at least. But maybe that's just the excitement of actually getting to be at the Oscars in person. I've still gotta keep in good shape, so I can't eat and drink myself crazy, but I can still have a good time!

[garethsouthgate-hf]

I haven't. I mean, it isn't a movie I have thought about watching. I just haven't seen many movies lately. I have children not sure if they have seen it though. I know that feeling. I am always pretty busy but I do enjoy having some time to relax. As for how I am, I am doing good.

[famesimu]

Well, if you find yourself having a quiet evening and feel like watching a movie, I definitely recommend it, totally unbiasedly.

[glenpowcll]

i have to admit that you were my favorite ken in the barbie movie! truly think there should be another film and your ken be a main focal point. then you and your best bro, also ken, can get into all sorts of trouble. and that best bro ken should be me. we should work this to margot and have her pitch it to greta. // @famesimu

[famesimu]

Damn, and I had some tough competition! If Greta wanted to make a sequel focusing on my Ken, I would say yes in a heartbeat, because I trust her with anything. I think you and I together could make it extra special.

[margseliserobbie]

I'll try! We really need to get Greta to talk to some people.. People don't say no to Greta. Kind of loving how it's been one big Barbie reunion lately. I'm going to be so sad when awards season is over! @famesimu

[famesimu]

Greta is the most influential woman in Hollywood right now, second only to you. Between the two of you... you can get shit done. I know, we better not go too long without catching up, all of us! We need a biannual reunion or something.

[lewispull]

I am right there with you. If I don't see you guys up there giving the performance of a lifetime I will be severely disappointed. What else would Tourist Ken wear? Did you guys have any say in the costumes? It's a pleasure to meet you man, i'm Lewis.

[famesimu]

Damn, those are strong words. During the song, we do wear some nice black outfits which were a little more comfortable to dance in. We got a certain amount of input, sure. As long as it fit with the overall vision, and drew inspiration from the actual dolls we were based on. Hi, Lewis, right back at you. Welcome to the MCU, by the way!

[renebaej]

i will be very disappointed if i'm just ken isn't nominated either. please perform it at the oscars i think that's an oscar worthy performance. nice to meet you simu, i'm irene, and i'm apart of the south korean girl group red velvet.

[famesimu]

Looks like we predicted the future, Irene! I only wanna do it if the rest of the gang join in, otherwise it won't feel right. It's nice to meet you, too! I'm sure I've heard some of your music, but I really struggle keeping up with K-Pop, however much I try. I swear every day there's 100 new songs from 20 different bands coming out. Which is incredible, and it makes me so happy that it's mainstream in the West, but I look like a bad East Asian if I don't keep up with it all, you know what I mean?

[famesudeikis]

Truth I mean Ill get all top chef on this and you will totally eventually have the best pizza out there. Wow like I dont know why but I want to challenge this. @famesimu

[famesimu]

There's nothing I'd want more than the perfect pizza. You do? Feel free to.

[ahyovng]

What an exciting time for you all~ Have you had a chance to pause yet, and just soak it all in? If I could vote, just to see that happen, I would! In a heartbeat. Especially if they put you guys in the tiny shorts! That might be a first at the Oscars. Aw, c'mon, the world would love to see it! It's a real pleasure to meet you. I'm Yura. @famesimu

[famesimu]

A little bit! I could process it to an extent at the tail end of the year, as the hype died down, but now that it's awards season, that's built up again, so I probably won't be able to process that all until the season is over. No, not the tiny shorts! Don't make me! Hi Yura! It's great to meet you. I've definitely seen your face in a couple of K-dramas, but my dumbass can't remember which.
