Ken Jeong Sings ‘I’m Just Ken’ for Barbie Night on ‘The Masked Singer’

Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, Rita Ora, and Ken Jeong on 'The Masked Singer' Barbie Night

This week, The Masked Singer is hosting Barbie Night, and panelist Ken Jeong got in on the fun by performing “I’m Just Ken.” The track was originally sung by Ryan Gosling in last year’s Barbie movie.

People shared a clip from Wednesday’s new episode of The Masked Singer, in which host Nick Cannon praises panelists Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy, and Rita Ora as “just the best, seriously.” The panelists agree that they “really are the best.”

Cue Ken Jeong’s performance, as he looks on from above the stage. He somberly sings about being “number two” to the other panelists — sliding down onto the stage and approaching his co-stars, who are in a pink convertible.

Wednesday’s episode is themed to Barbie, to celebrate the iconic doll’s 65th birthday. The episode will feature performances from the remaining members of Group B — Bluebell, Chess Piece, Goo, and Wasp. One of them will be eliminated and unmasked at the end of the night.

Jeong Is Receiving a Walk of Fame Star

It turns out that Jeong isn’t “just Ken” after all, because he’s receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Wednesday — the same day Barbie Night airs on FOX. The actor wrote on Instagram that he is “beyond honored.”

“I was a doctor at Kaiser Permanente, OK? This is not supposed to happen to me, to have a Walk of Fame star,” Jeong said on The Talk earlier this year. “I still can’t process it … There’s a lot of talented folk out there, a lot of people funnier than I’ll ever be. But to have this goodwill and love, I’ll never forget.”

Jeong has the 2,794th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It’s located at 1708 Vine Street, at the corner of Hollywood & Vine.
