Keanu Reeves Pens Sweet Message On Fan’s Yard Sign
Keanu Reeves has accumulated a cult-like following and is coined as the internet’s boyfriend. The John Wick actor continued to maintain his status as the world’s number one heartthrob while driving to a set in Louisiana with Bill and Ted Face the Music writer Ed Solomon.
According to Solomon’s Twitter post from two days ago, he was driving to the set with the 54-year-old action thriller superstar when they passed a yard with a sign in it that read “You’re breathtaking.”
For those unfamiliar with the reference, the sign was quoting a viral moment of Keanu’s from a month ago when he said “you’re breathtaking” to the crowd of an E3 video game conference after someone from the crowd shouted the same phrase at him.
Solomon’s Twitter post explained that Reeves was so compelled by it that he stopped the vehicle and pulled the sign out of the ground so he could leave his adoring fan a message. Kneeling in the lawn of the fan’s yard, he penned “Stacey, You’re Breathtaking” at the bottom with his signature as well.
Solomon’s Twitter post included a picture of Keanu kneeling down in the yard to leave the message as well as a snap of the yard sign after the actor finished with his handiwork. In just 48 hours, Ed’s post had accumulated over 40,000 likes as just shy of 9,000 people were discussing Reeves’ latest sweet gesture toward his fans.
