    Keanu Reeves saw a ghost when he was a child.

    The 'John Wick' actor and his nanny were left freaked out when they came face-to-face with a mysterious floating jacket in their New York home.


    Asked if he had ever seen a ghost, he told talk show host Jimmy Kimmel: "Yes, when I was a kid. I was in New York -- I was probably like six or seven years old, new apartment, we'd come from Australia.

    "Renata, our nanny, was in the bedroom, and there was a doorway and all of a sudden this jacket comes waving through the doorway, this empty jacket - there's no body, there's no legs.

    "Then it just disappears, and I was a little kid and I thought, 'OK, that's interesting,' and I looked over at the nanny and she's like this [freak out face].

    "Is that a ghost? Or just some weird floating jacket?"

    The 50-year-old star also admitted he has met very few people who share his unusual first name, and the first person he met also named Keanu was a family member.

    Asked if he has met other Keanus, he said: "Yes, I have a cousin.

    "There's a cousin Keanu. I didn't meet that guy until I was eight or nine so I'd never heard that name for another human until that time."

    Professor Green insists his altercation with a fan at a recent gig was just "rock 'n' roll".

    The 30-year-old rapper was caught on camera getting into a scuffle in the middle of his gig at Durham University's Student Union Welcome Ball earlier this after a member of the audience shouted abuse at him and he can't understand why there has been such a fuss over the incident.

    He said: "I don't reflect on things like that. Y'know, someone abuses you and throws their hand up at your face and then someone says that you slapped them and I'm like 'What?'. It just happened...

    "What's happened to rock 'n' roll? Hit music used to be hitting people over the head with chairs, I don't understand why it's all become such a big thing."

    The 'Remedy' hitmaker recently released his first new music in three years and is thrilled to be back at work.

    Speaking about his return to music at the MOBO Awards in London last night (22.10.14), he told BANG Showbiz: "The next video I've got is going up on Monday. I'm just happy to be releasing music again, it's nice to feel like I've got a job again."

    Following the row at the beginning of this month, a representative for the rapper, who is married to reality TV star Mille Mackintosh, confirmed that the star had got into an altercation with a fan during his set and the student was later escorted off the premises.

    The spokesperson said: "During Professor Green's live show at Durham University on Friday night, a student verbally abused Green repeatedly and then went to strike him. Green reacted. The student was subsequently escorted out from the venue for being too drunk. Green carried on the show to perform his full set."
