On his 30th birthday, Keanu Reeves, a self-professed hard-core hockey fan, visited an arena with a group of friends. As they arrived, Reeves realized that he was in fact the guest of honor at a surprise party with dozens of guests. His reaction was rather unexpected. "Part of you hates everybody," he later explained, "so I dropped my pants and mooned everybody!"

[While shopping in Europe one day, Reeves happened upon a beautiful chair in a small boutique. "Damn fine chair," he later recalled, "but it won't be in my house." The price tag? Nearly $300,000.]
