Is this man a Ryan Gosling lookalike or is he just wearing a suit?
The internet loves to look at people who look like celebrities, and why wouldn't they? Uncanny resemblances are ~spooky~ and fun.
This time, however, we simply must take a stand. Fashion blogger Johannes Laschet, who is currently enjoying a mini media blitz for resembling Ryan Gosling, does not really look like Ryan Gosling. He is just wearing nice clothes.
Here, let's take a journey through his Instagram. This is kind of Gosling-y, right? Sure. He is wearing a suit, which is what we often see Gosling wearing at red carpet events.
But be honest with yourself. Once the sunglasses come off, this person does not look like Ryan Gosling at all. Yes, he is a very nice looking man -- or #dapperman, as a hashtag below suggests -- but no one's going to, like, approach him on the street and say they loved him in Drive.
And yes, Ryan Gosling wore a similar hat in The Notebook. But I could also wear this hat. So could you. It is the hat that is making you feel this way. Remember the Ariana Grande lookalike who was just good at high ponytails? This is like that.
Joe, my dude, we love you because you're you. Stay true to yourself. Peace and love.
