During an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this week, Ryan Gosling admitted someone working for his agent advised him not to talk while on the show. He revealed: “I’m feeling a little self conscious because I ran into my friend Lisa Shields last night. She works for my agent now and one of her jobs is to record all my late night appearances… she said I’m trying too hard on talk shows.” He continued: “She said, ‘You’re trying so hard to be cool.’ I said, ‘I’m going on Jay Leno tomorrow, what should I do?’ She said, ‘I don’t know, like, just don’t talk. Sit there and don’t talk.’ And I was like, ‘It’s a talk show, how do you not..?’ And then she said, ‘Do something weird like sit behind his desk and get him to sit in a chair.'” Watch the full interview below — Ryan tells a really strange story about how he fell in love with motorcycles:
