They say fame and money make you an arrogant person- but this is definitely not true in case of Keanu Reeves. The actor with such an extensive career and fame around the globe is one of the downright humblest actors in Hollywood.
The Matrix actor is loved by his fans for his down-to-earth and simple behavior. Celebrities are known to make headlines for their personal life and their unruly conduct in the public.
But with the 58-year-old Canadian actor, it’s the complete opposite as he is always in the spotlight for his generous and modest behavior. The actors who have worked with Keanu Reeves have always been all praises for him. Keanu Reeves prefers being low-key both about his personal and professional life.

The handsome actor has always made headlines for all the good and heartwarming reasons.

The Day The Earth Stood Still actor loves to maintain a low-key life. He prefers staying away from the glare of social media. The craze of celebrities and the scrutiny that comes along with being on social media is something beyond his understanding. He simply fails to understand how come people around the world have the right to ask him about his life behind the camera.
On being asked about being absent from social media by Entertainment Tonight in 2016, the Devil’s Advocate star said-
“[Privacy] is important to me,” the actor said “And yeah, I don’t really have anything to say about anything!”
The stories about his charities and donations were never exposed by him in any interview or social media. He has never spoken about his generosity or good deeds to anyone or anywhere ever.
