He's all over the internet at the moment but actually he's mine.

I'm not having all these youngsters claiming my boyfriend. I was 14 in 1994 and Speed was my sexual awakening I tell you. I used to buy Just Seventeen cos he was always in it. I used to write his name on my pencil case and back my school books with his posters (ripped from Just 17 natch)

I'm not having it.

Have you all seen Always Be My Maybe on Netflix?

I’ll say no more Grin

We've been in love since Bill & Ted - get in line :)

He has been in some shite, but haven't they all. Keanu is 2 years younger than Tom Cruise but he's so much cooler.

Too bad Winona Ryder seems to have claimed him. I remember being envious of her when she dated Christian Slayer then Johnny Depp. Now Keanu Envy.

Poor bloke can't act for toffee but he seems like a lovely down to earth person. He's not bad to look at either. He must have a picture of himself in the attic. I'm 40 soon and he still looks as good as when I was 11.

I am a latecomer to the KR fan club. Because of this, he chose me over all of the others who have lusted after him for ages- hes known about you lot of course and felt kindness towards you all but until ME he has never known love like it. My lovely NuNu. (I am his little Mac)

Got to go, we have mutual navel gazing to do....

Okay, as a result of this thread, I googled Keanu Reeves for no reason other than a bit of recent gossip news. There is an article of about him not touching women he poses with. I think I love him even more now!

Oh, he’s is sooo sexy.
I was looking online, and he was at the Goodwood Festival of Speed last year doing a circuit on his motorbike in leathers 🤤 my god he was hot!
Hoping he’s there this year, as I’ve won tickets.

I went to school with him. He was a bit of a jerk back then (but really, weren't all teens?)

Seems he has turned into quite the heartthrob.

LucilleBluth · 14/06/2019 21:42

SisyphusHadItEasy Oh.My.GOD. Was this in Yorkville? I lived in Toronto for six years. Do tell. Jerk? Why? We're all the girls after him then?

I used to have a huge crush on him as a teen.

DH and I were watching the Dracula movie he was in. I can't believe it was Oscar nominated, it was bloody dreadful! But it led to a good discussion between us that Keanu has been able to carve out a hugely successful career when he really is a terrible actor!!

SisyphusHadItEasy · 15/06/2019 01:15

The school he attended wasn't in Yorkville, but in Willowdale (North York). It was an alternative school that allowed him to pursue his active in addition to his education.

He was a jerk insofar as he knew he had "it" whereas the rest of us were still looking. Not all of the students were in entertainment, some were athletes, and some just managed best in an alternative setting. While he was the biggest name to come from the school, he was definitely not the only. Cory Doctorow, a phenomenal and award winning author, was in our class as well.

I, on the other hand, am nothing special. Interesting story, though.

LilQueenie · 15/06/2019 01:18

yep bought just seventeen just because they used to mention him every single issue. The new Bill and Ted movie is coming out too and I am way too excited.

LucilleBluth · 15/06/2019 17:55

SisyphusHadItEasy, that's really interesting, thanks. I suppose when you have the kind of looks he had/has it may go to ones head a little. Also he came from a showbiz background I think.

Always Be My Maybe is so cute and funny! Great little movie and you might get to see a cameo :)

EssexGurl · 15/06/2019 18:42

Saw a piece on line recently (sadly can’t remember where) all about actors in the ‘me too’ era. Keanu was celebrated as someone who respects boundaries with fans, doesn’t touch them when posing for photos or put them/himself in compromising positions. Described as ‘one of the good ones’.
