Ryan Gosling: Don't Call Eva Mendes Baby

Ryan Gosling once again proves he's a complete hero by defending girlfriend Eva Mendes

Our crush on Ryan Gosling is getting ridiculous.

Not content with breaking up street fights in New York, saving the lives of journalists, supporting feminism and being a totally dashing, the talented actor has now proved he's the perfect boyfriend by defending girlfriend Eva Mendes.

RYAN GOSLING'S HOTTEST LOOKS

The couple were walking through the Bowery Hotel in New York before the premiere of their new movie The Place Beyond The Pines when a fashion photographer yelled: 'Hey, baby' at Eva across the room.

This did not please Gosling who reportedly got extremely annoyed with the man in question.

'Ryan completely flipped out, and it got heated,' said an eyewitness who spoke to The New York Post. 'Ryan got in the guy’s face and said, "Who are you calling baby?" Eva had to jump in and calm everyone down before it came to fisticuffs. Ryan then made nice and shook the guy’s hand.'

Now, we're sure Eva Mendes can fight her own battles, but you've got love the Gosling for defending his lady's honour.

Swoon.
