Keanu Reeves Once Wore Dolly Parton’s Iconic Playboy Outfit for Halloween
During an episode of Red Table Talks, Keanu Reeves shared a somewhat surprising childhood Halloween memory. He revealed he had once daringly transformed himself into the iconic Dolly Parton Playboy bunny for a spooky Halloween holiday.
This included not just any costume, but a meticulously recreated ensemble even featuring a bustier, fishnets, and all the glamorous elements that made Dolly Parton’s Playboy appearance iconic. He said,
“My mother was a costume designer and she made some costumes for Dolly Parton and she once did the cover of ‘Playboy,’—So we had it, and it was Halloween. So I put on the ears and the bustier,–I wore sneakers with fishnet stockings and the bowtie. I had some pretty long hair, and I was Dolly Parton as a Playboy Bunny.””

He again went into detail and revealed on the Graham Norton Show,
“Well, I wasn’t like 14 — I was 16. I got on public transportation,–Well, the thing was, I didn’t have the shoes. I had the ears, I had the bow tie, I had the top. I didn’t have the cufflinks. It was the stockings — that I didn’t shave my legs — and I was wearing these really ratty sneakers. And then I was on the streetcar going to this Halloween party at the performing arts high school that I went to.”
In the spectrum of all the Keanu Reeves looks, the actor’s audacious fusion of sneakers with fishnet and a bowtie alongside a bustier can never be defeated with his recent dapper red carpet outfits. However, fans were left utterly shocked when the actor made this humorous confession.
