A Ryan Gosling Impostor Took the Stage To Accept An Award

A Gosling impostor took the stage at a major German awards to accept a trophy for La La Land — much to the surprise of audience members Nicole Kidman, Jane Fonda and Colin Farrell. 

According The Daily Dot, the elaborate prank was coordinated by German comedians Joko Winterscheidt and Klaas Heufer-Umlauf. 

In the video below, posted on their YouTube channel, they comedians explained that they set up a fake talent agency to contact the Goldene Kamera organizers and promised that the Canadian actor would attend if he won an award, the Daily Dot reports. 

On their website, the pranksters claimed that he would need to skip the red carpet and head straight backstage, so the first time event organizers got a good look at him was on stage.
