Jimmy Kimmel Goes to 'Barbie' Land in Oscars Promo, Subtly Mentions Film's Snub


The four-time host of the annual awards ceremony enlists the help of some familiar faces to prepare for the show's March 10 airing.

Having landed in Barbieland, he asks for help from Weird Barbie (Kate McKinnon), who takes him through all of the Best Picture nominees to get to "Oscarsland." Once they arrive in Los Angeles, America Ferrera offers an inspirational monologue to calm Kimmel's nerves -- much like her character Gloria's viral speech in the film. Even Ryan Gosling comes along for the ride while wearing a Kenough sweatshirt and toting a bag of In-N-Out, which he says is a "cool social media trend, where you get it before the Oscars."
