Why do so many people like Keanu Reeves?

Late-night show host: “You’ve been dubbed the internet’s boyfriend, how do you feel about that?”

Keanu Reeves: “I’ve been what?”

The 51-year-old actor is actually one of the most popular actors in the world.

Here’s are a few reasons why he’s so likable:

He directs praise towards others — He talks a lot about others who have helped him succeed. He elevates others.

He exudes a calm and relaxed presence — He’s easy to talk to and is relatable. This allows for moments of strong enthusiasm to show up and hook back the person you’re talking to.

He’s a hands man- He uses his hands a lot

Spencer Kelly, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Colgate University and co-director of the school’s Center for Language and Brain, found that gestures make people pay attention to the acoustics of speech.

He is generous — Who doesn’t like a generous person.

When Keanu was shooting the Matrix movie, he surprised the cast with 12 customized Harley Davidson motorcycles. Who wouldn’t like this guy?

He simply has a lot of compassion. Most people don’t stop on the side of the road to help push a car to safety or hang out with a homeless guy.

His willingness to give back to people makes him very likable even though his public speaking or charisma isn’t perfect.

If you’re not as charismatic as you like at this moment, be more compassionate. Or, if you’re ready to take the next step in learning and invest in yourself, check out Loopward.com to improve your likability skills!
