People who worked with him says that he's a total


stand up guy and one of the biggest nice guys in Hollywood.

Is it true or just typical Hollywood rumors?

I think so.

Never been a whisper otherwise.

That would make sense since he's never lost his cool off-screen after finding early success in the 80s on forward.

Most actors who endure know their obligations to their craft and overall the industry they work in. It's akin to professional sports where star athletes and coaches who last long enough go into Hall of Fame status. In Hollywood they don't really have anything on the same level save the corny "Walk of Fame Star" which is more of a PR stunt and those obligatory Lifetime Achievement Oscars they give out to you when you're a year away from Death.

Well, actually, I heard that he

It's probably true. His name is never attached to any scandals that I've heard of.

I've been following Hollywood gossip for a long, long time... and I've never heard a bad word about Keanu. Apparently everyone who has ever worked with him or met him likes him!

Which is, IMHO, one of the secrets of his long, long career. He isn't the greatest actor and is no longer the young hottie, but he keeps coming back over and over again. I think he gets second and third and 100th chances when other actors get dropped by Hollywood, because everyone likes him and likes working with him. Why don't all young entertainers realize that being good to people is a great career move?
