Did Ryan Gosling lie about not being invited to Oscars?

Jimmy Kimmel claimed that Ryan Gosling had lied about not being invited to the Oscars.

The late-night host said the 'Barbie' actor said on March 10 that had been "asked repeatedly" to sing at the ceremony, contrary to what he told Variety in February.

Jimmy, 56, revealed to Lara Spencer during an interview on 'Good Morning America' that Ryan "had to think about it for a while" when the Academy initially approached him.

He, however, assured his performance at the Dolby Theatre this Sunday will be a "big production."

Asked what he thinks Ryan's live rendition of the 'Barbie's 'I'm Just Ken' will be like at the 96th Academy Awards, Jimmy revealed, "I hope it will be great, I think it will be great. It's a big production and Ryan takes this stuff very, very seriously."

"We work very hard to make the show as good as it possibly can be," he said in the interview. 

"I feel like the Kansas City Chiefs going into this Oscars. … Like you’ve been there before, but it doesn’t make a difference — It’s still exciting and you still have to do well!" Kimmel said.
