Oh Man, You'll Love Who Ryan Gosling Brought to the Oscars
Eeeeeven though it's not you.


Hollywood's biggest night (we're talking the Oscars (opens in new tab), folks) is known for adorable red carpet moments and total #CoupleGoals (opens in new tab). It's also known for surprise mystery dates, like Scarlett Johansson's talent agent companion (opens in new tab) and Ryan Gosling's seat mate, who was noticeably not partner Eva Mendes.
Turns out Gosling brought his older sister, Mandi Gosling, as his Oscars plus one. And let's be real—that's pretty damn cute.
It's also not the first time. Here they are at the Gotham Awards in 2006:
And here they are at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in 2008:
Nine years later, they're taking on their biggest red carpet yet. But Gosling's not the only one making it a family outing tonight. Emma Stone also took her brother, Spencer, while some celebrities (Dev Patel and Lin-Manuel Miranda, notably) brought their moms. THEIR MOMS.
All the cuteness. And here's more, just for fun...
