Some people go to extreme lengths to look like celebrities and most of the time their efforts fall short. Introducing Nicholas Ryan, a 32-year-old aspiring actor from New Jersey who has to date spent R50,592 in an attempt to look like Ryan Gosling. Nicholas endured nearly two hours of treatment including Botox and filler injections.

And like any aspiring actor, he wants to make a name for himself in Hollywood. He also hopes the treatment will enhance his features and help him attract some of the ladies. Nicholas said:

I wanted was more definition in my jaw bone, like Ryan Gosling.

He’s got a look that a lot of people in America are looking for right now, especially in my line of work. I’m hoping I’ll get more auditions and roles if I look more like Ryan Gosling. That’s why I had the surgery.

This according to Beverly Hills surgeon Dr Tim Neavin who preformed the “transformation” on Nicholas:

The patient already shares some similarities with Ryan Gosling, but has some deficiencies, so we built those areas out to give him that squared-off jaw Ryan Gosling made famous.
