Keanu Reeves with his new girlfriend strolling in Soho, New York, NY on March 19, 2006.

Actor Keanu Reeves is philosophical about reports questioning his sexuality and prefers to laugh off such rumours.

The Matrix star was not disturbed by lies about his marriage to movie boss David Geffen in 1995. He said he refused to let mindless gossip affect him, Contactmusic.com reported.

"I try not to live my life by what other people say. People were gossiping about what the king and queen were doing way back when. It's just human nature. We like talking about other people."
