You know that urge when you see someone famous and a part of you wants to go up to them and talk to them, and if you’re lucky, even get a picture or an autograph? 

Turns out, that urge is no different for movie stars either, who too, have their fanboy/girl moment when they come across someone they really appreciate.

Like Keanu Reeves, for instance.

The film star, who has done iconic films like the Matrix series and John Wick and has his own pretty impressive fanbase, recently opened up about how he’s only ever asked two people for their autograph, of which one was awfully rude to him. 

And between Lou Reed from Velvet Underground and George Carlin from Bill & Ted, we bet you can’t guess which one would it have been.

Having had given several hundred autographs to fans himself, Keanu recalls only being on  The Late Show with Stephen Colbert with the two people, to whom he nicely went up to for an autograph during a rapid-fire round.

Keanu admitted that he needed Lou Reed’s signature for a friend and that Lou signed it right away, however, without any additional message. Whereas with George, things went down differently, considering he wrote ‘Fu*k You’, to Keanu instead. 

Keanu shared, “I asked for another. George Carlin. Yeah, he gave me an autograph… It was really funny; he wrote, I think it was, 'Dear Keanu, F**k you!'" Reeves said with a smile, reflecting back on the comedian's personal note. "I always thought he just wrote that for me, and then I met someone else who said that he wrote the same thing to them! Anyway, beautiful."

Who would've thought that the big star would ask anyone for their autograph and be told this instead!  

However, Keanu being Keanu took Carlin’s stint in good humour and laughed it off.
