Guess who was sitting in the last row of First? Keanu Reeves (He was cool, but as you can see sick as a dog with the flu or something nasty). – with photo

I did once see Keanu Reeves in Vyner Street admiring an artwork in the Modern Art gallery, a blue, plastic rectangle, I seem to recall, that looked like a Formica offcut and cost 20 grand. Reeves described it as ‘almost Kleinian’, which is artspeak for blue.

Shanghai Tang has now drawn the attention of Hollywood celebrities. Actors from Angelina Jolie and Liv Tyler to Keanu Reeves (there is also a men’s line) are big fans.

Saw Keanu Reeves at The Pinnacle Deli, alone and incognito, then chatting up (in a very friendly manner) a gorgeous titian-haired petite thing who was celebrating her 20th birthday with friends – she approached him shyly and he came to their table and sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her a kiss, then sat down with them. He looks very young and stunning, if somewhat rugged, in person.

The stars, who also included Jude Law and Keanu Reeves, had gathered for the first LA show by the Bristol-born prankster, provocateur, graffiti artist and general meddler, Banksy.

What does the average entrepreneur have in common with the main character from “The Matrix”? Both of them embrace the unknown — and know when to take chances.

The first two paragraphs in this recalls the time Keanu sent a $200 bottle of wine to John Cleese’s table. He later joined him along with his friends and started doing scenes from Monty Python.

Lynne Barber discovers that serving as a judge on the Turner Prize has just about killed off her passion for contemporary art:

 On the other hand, I did once see Keanu Reeves in Vyner Street admiring an artwork in the Modern Art gallery, a blue, plastic rectangle, I seem to recall, that looked like a Formica offcut and cost 20 grand. Reeves described it as ‘almost Kleinian’, which is artspeak for blue.

Note: With respect to “almost Kleinian”, it refers to a piece that is monochromatic and may have the appearance of a square. In one of the photos by Tony Donaldson where Keanu is sitting on a white couch in his house, you can see part of the painting of a blue plank.

Mobile Reporter: Keanu Reeves on Hospital Visit in Lausanne

Jean-Philippe Chuard was amazed as he ran into Hollywood star Keanu Reeves who was in Lausanne. The “Matrix” star took time for a photo.

Readers note: Keanu Reeves is obviously staying longer in Lausanne – his cancer-stricken sister is hospitalized there. Reeves visits her every day in the Vaud University Hospital, as the mobile reporter reports. He is said to have even found an apartment.

The second article has more details but note it is a tabloid.

At 1 PM Saturday, we descended upon the Little Tokyo studio of artists (and partners) Lara Schnitger and Matthew Monahan. Schnitger, at work on a commission for Keanu Reeves tentatively titled Fucking in the Kitchen, discussed how her new baby informed her practice, offering as evidence a series of graphic collages hilariously pairing the acts of sex and giving birth: In one, a crying newborn pops out of a porn star’s vagina at the same time as her costar’s dick makes its way in.

This fan attended the ceremony and wrote up this article. Joss Whedon is a Wesleyan University alumnus who gave a speech the day one of the professors in the Film Studies Dept. won an award for excellence in teaching.

Mr. Whedon started his speech by sharing his thoughts on Keanu Reeves.
