Over a decade ago, Sandra Bullock was honored with the 'Decade of Hotness' award. With the recognition came speeches from her fellow co-stars, including Hugh Grant, Matthew McConaughey and Keanu Reeves.

All three gave entertaining speeches. However, Keanu's stuck out the most as Bullock was clearly emotional. We'll take a look back at the simplicity of Keanu's speech, and why it was so moving. We'll also reveal what the fans had to say, and take a closer look at the connection between Bullock and Reeves behind the scenes.

Matthew McConaughey And Keanu Reeves Gave Speeches At Sandra Bullock's Decade Of Hotness Ceremony

We turn back the clock to 2014 for this moment at the 2014 Guys Choice Awards. Sandra Bullock was accepting the award for her 'Decade of Hotness' at the ceremony. Some of her top co-stars from the past took part, and that included Hugh Grant, Matthew McConaughey and Keanu Reeves.

All three had entertaining speeches, with Matthew referencing their many kisses together in the past.

He said, "Hi Sandy. I've worked with you. I've tried to kiss you, successfully and unsuccessfully. I've been directed by you, in a short film and also to the exit of many bars."

As for Keanu Reeves, he ended up stealing the show on the night, leaving Sandra Bullock with tears in her eyes. Reeves' words were simple, but had so much of an impact. Keanu was clearly trying to note that Bullock was so much more than just her "decade of hotness."

He said, "Sandra, your heart, your soul, your light, your talent that you share with all of us is amazing and wonderful and extraordinary." Reeves adds, "You are one of a kind and you are definitely, definitely hot!"

It was yet another moment showing the genuine chemistry between Keanu and Sandra, which was so much more than just their performance

together in Speed. It clearly continued off-set, and this was another moment that proved the connection.

The top comments on YouTube wrote, "That’s why everyone loves Keanu Reeves cause he doesn’t need big words to express his sincerity cause he’s that simple."

"This is the nicest actor who has a heart of gold and my opinion, he's the greatest, not just on screen, but in life. No other actor is like Keanu Reeves."

"They should have hooked up back when they made “Speed.” Sandra has admitted she was crushing on him, and he said the same thing. Can you imagine the couple they would have made? They’re two of the nicest people in Hollywood."

Fans felt as though the speech was a reflection of who Keanu is as a person. And if anyone knows Keanu very well behind the scenes, it is Sandra Bullock.

Sandra Bullock Revealed She Saw The Deeper Side Of Keanu Reeves

Sandra Bullock has revealed in the past what it's truly like to have an intimate conversation with Keanu Reeves. The outcome is not what everyone was expecting. Keanu is a great listener, but doesn't say much in return.

Bullock revealed, "When I first met him, I would spend as much time as I could filling a silence, just to feel comfortable. And the more I jibber-jabbered on, the quieter he would get. And I thought, I don't understand what's happening! He's looking at me with eyes of confusion. He's quiet. Did I say something to offend him?"

She continues, "And then a day or two later, he would arrive with a note or a little package, saying, 'I thought about what you said.' And he would have his response."

Bullock also discussed what it would be like to date Keanu. According to the actress, if it came to a breakup, she wouldn't even be mad about it.

"Keanu's a guy who, I feel like, is friends with every woman he's ever dated. I don't think there's anyone who has something horrible to say about him," Bullock said.

"So maybe we could have survived. I don't know. But we didn't have to survive anything. We just get to grow up together on parallel roads and tip our hats and meet for a dinner and try to work together. And the longer time goes on, the more in awe I am of the human being. Would I have been able to say that if he had dumped me and made me angry? Probably not."

For years, fans wanted to see the two in a relationship, but it never happened.
