Gorka Marquez on Strictly
In a teaser shared by the Strictly Instagram page today, Gorka is seen dressed up as Ken from the movie. And he looks the part!
Wearing a big fluffy coat, jeans, sunglasses and a bandana, it was hard to tell Gorka apart from the real Ken (aka Gosling)!
In the clip, Gorka is seen miming to the movie’s hit song I’m Just Ken while some of his co-stars walk behind him. Also wearing outfits from other stars in the movie, the likes of Graziano Di Prima, Neil Jones and Vito Coppola are seen joining in to recreate the singing scene from the film.
It’s just everything.
