Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash, as well as Wolfgang Van Halen (Mammoth WVH, Van Halen), make appearances on the Barbie soundtrack, both appearing on "I'm Just Ken", performed by Ryan Gosling's character, Ken. The song was co-written by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt for the film.
Speaking to Variety, Ronson described Slash as his “all-time hero”, adding: “I sent him the song and he was like, ‘This is a good song… cool, I’ll play on it.’ He kills it, he plays the solo at the end and the rhythm parts. It’s wonderful.”
