Ryan Gosling At 10 Dancing To “Gonna Make You Sweat”: Watch This Talent Show Footage

We don’t know how. We don’t know why. All we know is that somehow, thank God, a video clip of Drive actor Ryan Gosling at age 10 — where he’s decked out in MC Hammer pants, has a bowl haircut and is singing  Michael Bolton‘s cover of “When A Man Loves A Woman” (quite well, actually) — has found its way online. According to the video description on YouTube, this magic occurred “at a Mormon talent competition in late 1991.” The real treat comes when Gosling and sister Mandi bust out their hip hop dance routine like pint-sized rap dervishes to C+C Music Factory‘s 1990 smash “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)”. Keep in mind that this was pre-Lars And The Real Girl, pre-The Notebook and, yes, pre-Mickey Mouse Club. Though, with these moves, someone please explain to us how Ryan did not end up in *NSync with fellow MMC member Justin Timberlake? [Via ONTD]
