Come on Barbie, we’re going to the Malibu dream house — Ken’s way!
More from Variety
Fans can officially rent the Malibu Barbie dream house on Airbnb, as hosted by Barbie’s right-hand man, Ken (played by Ryan Gosling). He’s trading in his rollerblades and surf shorts to offer fans a one-of-a-kind experience this July at the life-sized, toy-inspired mansion, proving he’s more than “Just Ken.”
On July 17 at 10 a.m. PT, everyone in Barbie Land can request to book Ken’s room in Barbie’s DreamHouse at airbnb.com/kendreamhouse for two individual one-night stays for up to two guests. Selected winners will stay at the pink mansion in Malibu on July 21 and July 22, free of charge, to indulge in all the Kenergy that revamped beach home has the offer.
“We all have dreams, and Barbie is lucky enough to have a house full of them,” said Ken via press release. “But now, it’s my turn, and I can’t wait to host guests inside this one-of-a-kind – dare I say, one-of-a-Ken? – digs.”
The newly renovated Malibu dream house sports Barbie’s signature pink polish, this time with a revamped Kenergy. Upon their stay, guests will indulge in the opportunity to look through Ken’s wardrobe, learn line dancing on the outdoor disco floor, engage in a “beach off” by the infinity pool and take home an exclusive piece of the Kendom with a set of yellow-and-pink Impala skates and surfboards.
Ken’s hosting commemorates the July 21 release of Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie,” written by Gerwig and Noah Baumbach. The film will star Margot Robbie, Gosling, America Ferrara, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Rhea Perlman and Will Ferrell.
To celebrate the release, Airbnb will make a one-time donation to Save the Children, an organization providing learning resources and support to children, families and communities in support of girls’ confidence.
