Blue Valentine star is too down-to-earth for Hollywood

Do we really need to issue an explanation for posting these insanely hot pictures of Ryan Gosling?

The Blue Valentine babe covers the latest issue of GQ, and not only does his down-to-earth personality make us fall in love with him a gazillion times over (he got a job at a deli after The Notebook), we also know now a thousand percent we want to be a member of the Gosling family.

But first things first. Ry explains his fascination with Disneyland, where he was first spotted out on a date with Blake Lively...

"I loved the idea that Walt Disney had this dream of a place and then made it a reality," Ryan tells the magazine. "It's the same way I felt when I saw Blue Velvet. It's so clearly one person's singular dream. The fact that somebody believed in their idea so much to make it a reality...I want to be that kind of person.

"I come from a family of believers," continues Ryan. "My mother still believes in Santa Claus. We tried to break it to her once, but she wasn't having it. There are very few believers in the world, but my mother is one of them."

Adorable or what?

We heart our Ry because he's one of the few Hollywood guys that is not a fake douche. If you don't believe us, just check out what his first job was after the success of The Notebook.

He took a job at a local deli!

"I'd never had a real job," Gosling spills, going on about the problems of Hollywood: "They have meals. They go to Pilates. But it's not enough. So they do drugs. If everybody had a pile of rocks in their backyard and spent every day moving them from one side of the yard to the other, it would be a much happier place."

Dear lord, Blake, you better treat this one good! Even though the two are just "casually" seeing each other, if Lively's smart she will snatch him up now.

Or is newly single Ryan Reynolds more her type now?
