Ryan Gosling: actor, activist, musician, DJ?
For those who don’t their Ryan Gosling trivia, he isn’t just an award-winning actor. At 27, he’s already a man of many interests and passions. In 2005, the actor traveled to Africa to film a documentary on the refugee camps in Darfur. Since then he’s been committed to raising awareness about genocide. A lot of celebs flash their causes like the latest accessory, but Gosling isn’t speaking out to get his picture taken. He’s been involved with human rights organizations for years, speaking on panels and encouraging student activism.
Gosling’s also into music. He has a band called Dead Man’s Bones, in which he sings and plays guitar. See their Myspace page here: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfmfuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=154853068.
Now The Huffington Post is reporting that Gosling has a regular DJ’ing gig at Green Door Lounge in Hollywood. Perez Hilton says of the actor’s debut, “Ryan spun tunes from ’40s and ’50s and dressed ‘from the era’ - white T, black pants and motorcycle jacket.” Make that actor, activist, musician, DJ, and dapper dresser.







I’ve always liked Ryan since I saw him in Murder by Numbers.
