Keanu Reeves: Good Genes or Good Docs?!

For the love of injectable silicone used to lubricate auto parts! What is Keanu Reeves' secret?!
Keanu Reeves

After 14 years -- and multiple box office hits and flops -- the 29-year-old Keanu of yore (left) and the 43-year-old version (right) that turned up in L.A. on Thursday -- look virtually unchanged. That's what happens when you never use facial expressions.

What the hell was in that red pill?!

106. It's the genes. Those Hawaiian people age so gracefully. I've seen 40 year old women from Hawaii who look like they are in their mid-20's.

108. hmm, I dunno, I saw him in some movie about lliving in a lake house and getting letters from the future, he didn't look so good in that, old and bloatyish... I think he's had some stuff done since then... or maybe simply lost weight and more healthy living. He looks much better in that photo. And it is true about the benefits of being deadpan, the more expressions you make as you age, the older you will look as the wrinkles and creases tend to stay behind!

109. Looks better now. He seems like a reluctant star and you never see stories about him. You Go K.

110. He had to train a lot for Street Kings with guns and fighting. He does look healthier in person and more ridiculously handsome.


As for what happens to him in Street Kings, he is beaten up and gets shot at a bunch of times. And he does his best acting since "the Gift". He should work with Ayer again.

111. Chandra, did you see the movie Street Kings?!? If so, pleazzzz tell me what you thought of the movie as a whole. And you say Keanu did a great acting job, do you think it's good enough to put all those "Keanu can't act" comments to shame? I sure hope so and how did he look in the movie, incredibly gorgeous as usual?

114. The preternaturally preserved Mr. Reeves most likely benefits from an advantageous genetic disposition. However, the effects of his attitude toward life cannot be discounted, as reported in this news clipping from 1994: Hollywood heartthrob Keanu Reeves has no desire to get married. "I have friends who have made the leap but it is not for me," the actor told the British magazine, Women's Own. "My parents split up when I was young and I have seen nothing to recommend marriage. The only woman I see regularly is my sister Kim." On allegations he was homosexual, Reeves said: "I've deliberately kept out of the gossip columns. I haven't been photographed with lots of girlfriends and I've kept my private life to myself. I don't think I should have to defend myself just because I live a full life."

How refreshing to see a celeb that is strong in his identity to stay grounded and away from The Ivy, etc. Back in the "Magnum P.I." days, a story was floating around about Tom Selleck that early in his career he and his struggling actor buddies made a conscious effort to limit their smiling to prevent crow's feet, so there may be credence about maintaining a flat affect.

115. CORRECTION TO ABOVE RE: REEVES. "I don't think I should have to defend myself just because I lead a DULL life," (caps mine).

118. I believe it is all genetic. But if I have the chance to meet Keanu, i will ask what kind of moisturizer he is using. silly me.
