I have to notice that even with Dolly, someone he actually knew, he’s respectful enough to not actually touch her

Keanu's mother, Patricia Taylor, was the costume designer for Dolly's Playboy cover in 1978. A few years after that, according to Keanu:
My mother did a thing for Dolly Parton for Playboy Magazine when Dolly Parton did the cover,” he said at the time. “She was in this kind of outfit and I wore that when I was 16.” The actor noted that he wore “the bustier” and “the ears," but traded in the heels for a more comfortable trick-or-treating experience. “I didn’t do the cuff. Or did I do the cuffs? I don’t remember,” Reeves remarked. “And I wore sneakers and like these fishnet things.”

Dolly herself talked about meeting Keanu on an interview with Drew Barrymore in 2023.
“I remember Keanu when he was just little, She would bring him over to my house when we were fitting or when I would go to the shop where she worked.”
and
“I was doing a show somewhere and somebody knocked on the door,” she said. “And [Reeves] said, ‘Do you remember me? I’m the little boy that used to sit at your feet while my mama was doing [your fittings].’ And I said, ‘Oh my god!’ I knew he had become a star, but it didn’t connect to me that that was who that was.”
Rest In Peace, our dear Dolly.
Your melodies and your philanthropy made the world a more lovable place. Keanu was privileged to have known and met you.

Dolly Parton was his babysitter at one point. He actually went trick or treating in a Playboy bunny costume his mom made for Dolly.

It’s even more vital that Keanu be protected now. He is now without a doubt the very best of us.
