Reeves wins internet
A user had posted a video on Reddit where Reeves reacts after finding out his AMA ratings had surpassed that of Obama's. Fans quickly commented on the post showing their love for the actor. One user wrote, "I saw him in a coffee shop in NYC, I think it was 2016. The guy is every bit as nice, polite and humble as everyone that has met him says he is. The guy is a gem of a human." Another commented, "He sets an example that 90% of Hollywood(or just celebrities in general) will never follow." More love came pouring in when one user commented, "It's nice to see that all that internet love isnt fake and they showed out and showed him real love I'm so happy to witness this relationship between such a worthy human and the internet." Another said, "I don’t even think it’s possible to be more humble than this dude :)". Another commented, "Keanu is the type of person that, despite being very successful, handsome, wealthy, basically winning in just about every aspect of life - if he were absolutely none of those things I think he'd still be the same very kind, very appreciative person. I think most people can kind of tell that about him, and really like that about him. He just seems very genuine."
