Hey girl, sometimes dreams do come true. Last fall, officials at the Texas School for the Deaf in Austin hoped to entice Ryan Gosling to attend a charity fundraiser by posting an open invitation in the form of the flirty "Hey Girl" Internet meme that riffs on his don't-you-wish-he-was-your-hipster-boyfriend reputation. The day of the event, Gosling shocked organizers by turning up - with Rooney Mara and Michael Fassbender, his costars in the untitled Terrence Malick film shooting in town. Gosling happily mingled, took photos with a long line of excited parents and kids, and at one point, he "paid $50 for a $1 glow-in-the-dark cotton candy,...

Ryan Gosling made a surprise appearance at a charity event at the Texas School for the Deaf at the weekend. The 'Drive' actor took a break from filming his latest movie in Austin, Texas, on Saturday (27.10.12) to stun pupils and teachers at the school and he also brought along co-stars Michael Fassbender and Rooney Mara. Anne Adams, executive director of the school's foundation, told the Washington Post newspaper: ''We knew that Ryan was in town, and he's been on streets around campus often so we were just pipe dreaming (and look what happened!).''

Ryan Gosling sent young hearts racing when he showed up at a charity event for the Texas School for the Deaf in Austin, Texas. He and co-star Michael Fassbender took a break from filming the untitled Terrence Malick project to drop some dough and spark a Twitter frenzy among young event participants.
Anne Adams, executive director of the school's charity foundation, told the Washington Post Gosling made quite an impact on the kids. "Ryan helped us out by paying $50 for a $1 glow in the dark cotton candy from a booth staffed by deaf children," says Adams. "It was very sweet."
Tweets from the event -- which featured a sunset "Spooky 5k" race -- included lots of omg's and plenty of caps lock.

Ryan Gosling is just boss. This is a fact that can never be disputed. Seriously — we’d get violent if you disagreed. He is our number one pick on our 10 hottest Ryan’s ever, so you know we’re cray about our man. He was a budding heart-breaker at 10-years-old, a bonafide heart-breaker by 12, and has got a major thumbs-up from one of our most beloved star-ladies, Christina Hendricks. We also already know that Ryan’s a hero, so we don’t even know why this news update surprises us. But we can’t help it. Our ovaries explode at the slightest mention of any of the many awesome things Baby Goose does. And showing up as a surprise at a charity even for the Texas School for the Deaf in Austin qualifies as pretty awesome. Anne Adams, the executive director of the school told E! that a film crew...

Hey girl, here's another reason to love Ryan Gosling. Over the weekend the 31-year-old actor attended a charity event benefiting the Texas School for the Deaf in Austin. Those who organized the Spooky Skedaddle 5K and Festival didn't know beforehand that the Notebook hunk would be gracing them with his presence. "You should have told me Ryan Gosling would be there ;)," @FreeFunInAustin tweeted to the school. "Ha :)," the organization replied. "We didn't know either!" Anne Adams, the executive director of the Texas School for the Deaf, told E! News Ryan (who is currently in Texas filming a Terrence Malick flick) was joined by a film crew and his...
