Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber say they’ve attempted to get a selfie with fellow ’90s child actor Ryan Gosling — but so far, he’s eluded them.
On the Tuesday, April 29, 2025, episode of their Full House rewatch podcast How Rude, Tanneritos!, the actresses spoke about the other celebrities that made them “starstruck.”
Sweetin, 43, professed that Dolly Parton “might actually be the one person that, like, I would actually be kind of, like, starstruck if I met.”
That’s when Barber, 48, chimed in: “Well, her and and Ryan Gosling. That’s the other one.”

“Remember I asked for a selfie, or I tried to get to him for a picture at the scleroderma benefit a million years ago?” Barber asked, adding that she did so as a favor for Sweetin. “For you. I did this for you. And I got stopped by security!”

“Well, we knew each other. We met as kids and had stayed in contact,” Sweetin said, referencing her time with Gosling on the 1990s Disney Channel show, The All New Mickey Mouse Club.
“So, I was like, ‘Oh, we’ll go get a picture.’ But there was no way to do it low-pro, and he had, like, a bazillion security [guards] there,” Sweetin added.

When the duo noticed Gosling was sitting near a mutual friend, they went to go say hi — and that’s when, said Sweetin, “it just got awkward.”
“But I made it more awkward when I peel out. I leave you guys,” Sweetin said. “And I’m like, ‘bye.’ And I make a left because I’m like, ‘Oh my God. I don’t even know what’s happening. I need to get out of this uncomfortable situation.’ So I walked to the left, only to realize there is no exit there. And I have to go then walk back by, like an idiot, and find the exit. I was like, ‘God, it can’t even make a smooth exit.’ “
Barber and Sweetin appeared together in all eight seasons of Full House from 1987 to 1995, and reunited to star alongside fellow original cast member Candace Cameron Bure in the Netflix reboot Fuller House from 2016 to 2020.
