Keanu Reeves praised for the way he takes pictures with people

Everyone's favourite actor is being praised for the way that he takes pictures with fans.

We're just going to come out and say it - we f****** love Keanu Reeves.

The man is a living legend, star of The Matrix, John Wick, and Speed ⁠— we honestly don't think there's a single person cooler in the world.

Check out Keanu being a wholesome lad as per usual:

And, it turns out, he's an absolute sweetheart ⁠—we mean, have you seen how he takes pictures with fans?

For context, obviously, Keanu gets asked for a fair few photo ops, and being the respectful king that he is, he keeps his hands firmly to himself.

Unlike the complete randomers that pull you by the waist for a photo in the club with a bunch of lads you don't know.

So, sharing a compilation of photos featuring Keanu and fans, one Twitter user wrote: "Lol Keanu ain’t taking no chances."

And fans were quick to praise the actor for his thoughtful behaviour because let's be honest, should you really ever be grabbing people you don't know by the waist?

One fan wrote: "Keanu is a gentleman and smart enough to know it would be awkward af to touch a woman he doesn't know."

Another onlooker added: "That’s not the thing, the thing is that he’s not making a big deal of it, or avoiding people.... he’s just keeping his hands to himself. Guy seems like a good egg."

And he absolutely does seem like a good egg, one of the photos even features Dolly Parton, who seems like an excellent judge of character.

We'll admit, though, that Keanu exists in that strange realm of celebrity that makes him seem like a friend you've known for years when in actuality, not one of these people, including us, has ever met him.

A third commenter spoke about the strangeness of this familiarity, adding: "Impossible to feel more love and respect for someone i may never meet. He is pure class and we (earth) is a better place for having him here."

Other, incredibly cynical people suggested that Keanu's behaviour was a way to dodge lawsuits: "He's trying not to catch a sexual assault charge since even a hug can get you to that point these days."

Another added: "Ain't nobody gonna catch him with assault accusations."

And, to be honest, it seems like a genuine act of respecting other people's boundaries on Keanu's part, rather than being tactical.
