It’s no secret that Paula Abdul and Keanu Reeves have been linked together romantically for years.

However, Abdul recently cleared the air on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen when a viewer asked if they ever dated.

Her response was, “I wish,” but she went on to explain how they met and worked together.

In 1991, Abdul asked Reeves to star in her music video for “Rush, Rush,” which was the number one single at the time from her hit album Spellbound.

Reeves agreed to take part, and together they recreated scenes from the classic James Dean movie, Rebel Without a Cause.

In the long version of the music video, the pair share emotional dialogue and spend a substantial amount of time making out.

Fans pined over the heartfelt moments and swooned when Reeves said he didn’t know if he had ever been in love.

Abdul did some acting with Reeves, revealing that her favorite scene was the one where they were kissing each other at four in the morning.

However, when Andy Cohen asked Abdul if they ever dated, she regretfully said no.

During the filming of the music video, Abdul wanted to introduce herself to Reeves since they had never met.

She went to his dressing room trailer, and the door was slightly open.

She peeked inside, only to find him in his underwear with headphones on playing air guitar.

She walked away, so as not to disturb him, and smiled to herself, saying, “that’s my boyfriend.”

Reeves is no stranger to the air guitar.

He spent a lot of time on Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure playing this very imaginary instrument.

This 1989 cult classic featured the moves so many times that the air guitar became a part of pop culture history.

According to Reeves, he met Paula Abdul at a charity event where she asked him to be in the video.

He accepted the offer on the spot.

When asked about the experience, he told Screen Crush, “it was a good weekend … I got to make out with Paula Abdul.”

Although Reeves may have never dated Paula Abdul, he did admit to Ellen DeGeneres that he had a crush on Sandra Bullock.

Ellen talked about their on-screen chemistry in the hit movie, Speed.

She told Reeves that Bullock revealed she also had a crush on him.

They never dated, but Bullock said she would giggle whenever he looked at her.

This made it hard to be serious on the set.

Reeves replied, “it was nice to go to work with her.”

Now, at 57 years of age, Abdul is taking on a residency at Flamingo Las Vegas.

Her Forever Your Girl show opened in October 2019.

All of her signature dance moves are featured on this personal journey.

She highlights songs and music videos from her early days on the pop scene.

As for Reeves, he is living a laid-back life on his own terms in the Hollywood Hills.

His classic sci-fi character, Neo, will be returning to the big screen in The Matrix 4, which is scheduled to begin production in 2020. Who knows, maybe we will see Abdul or Bullock in one of those flashback videos.
