The lovers appeared at the gala concert of the Museum of Modern Art in Los Angeles. Keanu and Alexandra looked happy on the red carpet and shared a kiss. However, the artist and sculptor became a victim of severe bullying. This outraged well-known feminist Kate Spicer.
“Yes, his chosen one is not only 50 years old, but she has gray hair. People can’t seem to get over the fact that the heartthrob is dating a mature woman and not a pliable young woman with full lips and an eerily still face. Alexandra’s gray hair is always being talked about in the press,” Kate fumed.
The activist reminded that this is not the first time that the couple went out. The actor and artist went public with their romance in 2019 and have since made a number of public appearances together. However, each of their output gives the impression of an exploding bomb. “They seem happy in each other’s company, clearly lovers and good friends, comfortable with each other and in their own skin. It’s so touching,” Spicer stood up for the couple.
Alexandra does not resort to the services of plastic surgeons, uses a minimum of cosmetics and stopped dyeing her hair due to the threat of developing breast cancer. According to the feminist, such a desire for natural beauty is commendable. According to her, Keanu Reeves’ girlfriend is being bullied for not looking like other women in Hollywood with wrinkle-free faces and button noses.
“Grant can be a successful artist and teacher who speaks three languages and regularly does charity work. But where are the breasts, thighs and shiny long hair that suggest she could be gracing the Pirelli calendar? It’s a widely accepted stereotype that a successful rich man should always need a younger and hotter wife,” Kate is quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
An expert sees the reason for such bullying in male vanity. Insecure men need confirmation of their self-worth, so young beauties are as much an accessory to their ego as expensive watches, cars and other evidence of their financial well-being. “Famous men like Keanu Reeves, who refuse to live up to these common standards, are the exception,” Spicer added.
The personal life of the star of the John Wick saga was not easy – Reeves was never married and has no children. In 1999, his lover, actress Jennifer Syme, gave birth to a stillborn daughter and died in a car accident two years later. Since then, Keanu has led a reclusive lifestyle. He met Alexandra in 2009. She made illustrations for his collection of poems “Ode to Happiness”, later they organized a joint exhibition “Shadows”. The official relationship between the actor and the artist grew into a romantic one.
