Keanu Reeves a fêté ses 62 ans le 2 septembre 2026.
Sandra Bullock, sa partenaire dans le film Speed, dit de lui :
« Son père l’a abandonné lorsqu’il avait trois ans, sa fille est morte à l’âge de huit mois, sa compagne est décédée dans un accident de voiture, son meilleur ami a succombé à une overdose… Et malgré tout cela, il n’a jamais perdu sa lumière, son monde ne s’est jamais effondré.
Lors du tournage de The Lake House, il a surpris une conversation entre deux assistants : une femme en pleurs expliquait qu’elle risquait de perdre sa maison si elle ne payait pas 20 000 dollars. Keanu a aussitôt transféré l’argent sur son compte.
Avec les gains de la trilogie Matrix, il a offert plusieurs millions de dollars à l’équipe des effets spéciaux, qu’il considérait comme les véritables héros du film.
Refusant de recourir aux cascadeurs sauf pour les scènes les plus dangereuses, il a remercié chacun de ces “héros” en leur offrant une moto Harley-Davidson.
Aujourd’hui encore, il se déplace en métro ou en bus quand c’est plus pratique, sans jamais éprouver de honte.
De nombreux hôpitaux affirment avoir reçu des dizaines de millions de dollars de sa part. Pour certains films, il a accepté de renoncer à 90 % de son salaire afin de permettre à la production d’embaucher d’autres acteurs.
En 1997, un paparazzi l’a surpris assis dans la rue à côté d’un sans-abri, partageant son petit-déjeuner et écoutant son histoire.
Tout ce que nous savons de Keanu Reeves, ce n’est pas lui qui nous l’a dit, mais les personnes qui ont bénéficié de son aide et de sa générosité. Il n’a jamais cherché à en parler.
Malgré toutes les épreuves qu’il a traversées, il aurait pu adopter une vision sombre et désespérée de la vie. Mais non : il a choisi de rester un homme bon, dans un monde qui ne l’est pas toujours. »
Plus qu’un acteur talentueux, Keanu Reeves est un véritable modèle d’humilité et de générosité ❤️🙏

Apparently this is the last time they performed together.
Miley’s emotion is written all over her tearful face. And the tender way Dolly touches her hair is so sweet.

From @DollyParton’s sister Stella:
My big sister Dolly got her wings this past Tuesday.
If anyone gets to heaven I’m sure she made it right on time.
I know she’s showing out big time, in all her sparkles and shine.
That was my sister’s way.
Every Tuesday about this time before the sun came up and the world was still asleep she and I for many years,had our coffee together over the phone.
Being little farm girls we’ve continued to be early risers.
As she liked to say; “shoot Tedda we get more work done before the sun comes up than most folks do all day long!”
We would catch up on gossip, as sisters do, and drink coffee and make plans as it has always been our way.
My sister was one of the most generous, thoughtful and kind people I’ve ever known.
What the world saw is exactly who she was, so much so, she told me recently that if there was no hope for her, she would still allow her medical team to try experimental drugs in the hope of helping others in the future.
My sister was always thinking of others and if you want to honor her legacy, show more kindness, lift others up and give more of your time and resources as she continued to do to the very end.
I want to personally thank all of you for the out pouring of love and respect you are showing my sister.
Your love and respect for her is deeply felt by all of us who loved her first and it helps as we grieve her passing through our lives!
My Tuesday morning coffee time will never be the same but her love, respect and goodness will remain.
Dolly loved the world and everyone in it.
I would criticize and complain about it and she would laugh and say; “shoot Tedda, we’ve got more important things to do than worry about their silly asses.”
She was right and she proved it everyday.
She left the world a better place by being in it so let’s follow her example. Love and respect to all of you. Stella

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.
Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).
A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.
At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at dollyparton.com
In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at imaginationlibrary.com

In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.
She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.
The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.
She handed out the checks herself.
In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.
When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.
You've probably heard that part.
Here's the part you haven't:
The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.
Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.
She built her county an entire hospital.
She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.
In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.
Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.
In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.
And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.
She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.
She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.
Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸

It was revealed that Dolly Parton was secretly battling cancer but she didn't say anything and instead released this song as one of her last to raise funds for children with cancer. Even while she was sick she was still thinking about others. I’m absolutely devastated.

Denmark just passed a law that every person owns a copyright to their own face, voice, and body. In the age of AI, this places more legal control in a person's hands, and there are real, large consequences and fines for breaking this law.
We need to make this worldwide.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Denmark has proposed but not passed a law granting copyright-like rights over one's face, voice, and body to combat AI deepfakes; the amendments remain in draft form as of early 2026. theguardian.com/technology/202… europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes…
