Following the set, Dogstar joined celebrity chef Roy Choi at the Williams Sonoma Culinary Stage, where they demonstrated their cooking skills. Reeves participated in making kimchi fried rice and Korean barbecue burritos, alongside Choi. While the culinary performances at BottleRock can sometimes feel contrived, Reeves maintained a mild interest in the cooking process. However, the energy escalated when George Kittle, a star player for the San Francisco 49ers and a regular at the culinary stage, made a surprise appearance. Kittle engaged in a playful interaction with Reeves, mimicking Neo’s iconic dodging moves from “The Matrix.” In response, Reeves mimed catching a football over his shoulder and enthusiastically spiking it, reminiscent of Kittle’s celebrated moves on the football field.
With that lively exchange, reminiscent of a scene from his famous “John Wick” movies, Keanu Reeves departed from the festival grounds, leaving behind a trail of memorable moments and a delighted crowd. His presence throughout the day, from the electrifying Dogstar performance to the culinary stage antics with George Kittle, made it clear that Reeves remains a cherished and beloved figure among fans. His versatility as an actor and his genuine interactions with fellow artists and fans alike further cemented his status as an icon in the entertainment industry.
