Aside from being memed as “sad Keanu” and the “internet’s boyfriend,” Keanu Reeves has been praised for his professional conduct with women, his generous philanthropic contributions to charitable causes, other celebrities, and random people, and his success in films.

Speaking to ET, Keanu talked about all the support for him coming from his fans.
