[@DylanJouglah-Shields]

Fun fact: Keanu Reeves actually gave Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth a yellow bass, which she plays in the music video for the Sonic Youth song 100%

[@carlstawicki1915]

Jeff Bridges too. He has signature Breedlove Guitars.

[@Rockstar-lx2li]

Jim Carey too..

[@SaintMartins]

French Actress Julie Delpy (Before Sunrise, Killing Zoe, Mauvais Sang) America's favorite Pirate Johnny Depp (21 Jump Street, Cry Baby) Late great Actor River Phoenix was in a band Aleka's Attic (Stand By Me, My Own Private Idaho)

[@keres666]

I think we all knew about Russel Crowe... Fightin' Round the world.

[@respectthedent]

"We could not find cancer, but we found a person with cancer."

[@speedywaffle6884]

No more Russel Crowin’

[@KillerManzarek]

Poor Tugger

[@fox-jake8784]

I mean it's no secret that most of these guys play. Stephen King is music buff and an avid fan of The Ramones and AC/DC, Steven Seagal had his own album and did some music for some of his movies, and Keanu Reeves was Ted Logan from the Wyld Stallyns for god sakes. Hell Mike Judge, the creator of King of the Hill and Beavis and Butt-head was a bassist too.

[@RyuujinLetum]

Very true. Like Aziz is a surprise

[@user-nh6gu2vo1x]

Terence Howard...by far...was the most impressive and catchy player...mad respect for D.J.

[@lnvasionProject]

Mayne, i didn't know *Terrence Howard* can play really good

[@BayouMaccabee]

Next do celebrities who play the drums.

[@zgamer1154]

Bill Burr is definitely going to be on that list

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

And Will Ferrell.

[@BayouMaccabee]

Also Chevy Chase, Dana Carvey, Johnny Carson, Jerry Lewis, and retired MLB pitcher Randy Johnson...to name a few more.

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

@@BayouMaccabee I shoulda remembered Dana Carvey. I'll never forget that Church Chat when the Church Lady played with Danny DeVito. Man, the 80s were weird.

[@lvalledor3440]

I knew Keanu Reeves played bass before but what I didn't know was that Keanu's drummer from Dogstar actually played one of the 13 elevator hostages in Speed. He was the one who was the 2nd last person to evacuate the express elevator

[@abielpaz3187]

I went to see zztop in Hidalgo Texas, and to my surprise Dennis Quaid and the sharks opened up for them, nobody knew. I had to really search to see who was opening. I told people waiting in line and they were really happy

[@zombygoose]

A few of these surprised me. Like Stephen King. I thought he would be more into Rob Zombie

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

I understand he's a huge AC/DC guy. At least he used to be.

[@aaronmartinez5029]

He’s actually a Slayer fan, too lol

[@axldecay3056]

Kiefer Sutherland forever a lost boy 🦇🍷

[@TheBlackQueen]

I saw Keanu at Amoeba Music in LA a few months ago! Dude was vibin hard!

[@svtman93]

Very cool, there were a few I did not know about. I actually met Keanu Reeves when Dogstar played locally last year.

[@punkrockstormchaser]

Also fun fact: Keanu filled in for Joe escalante of the vandals in 1992 when he couldn’t make it to a show

[@NickCC23]

Danny Nucci of Titanic and The Fosters fame has played with Kenny Wayne Shepard and Stephen Stills.

[@helrem]

I approved this: i'm a guitar

[@danielphillips5324]

I also approve of this : I’m a bass

[@PasleyAviationPhotography]

I liked your comment: I'm a dumbass

[@TacosCanned]

@@PasleyAviationPhotographyI liked your reply to this comment (I’m a dumguitarist)

[@mexicanmaggot666]

Watching Kiefer Sutherland playing guitar makes me wish there were musical segments on MGSV.

[@rezaqalam482]

I can imagine it will be like musical segment like alan wake 2

[@rezaqalam482]

Or imagine big boss played accoustic cover of the man who sold the world

[@mexicanmaggot666]

@@rezaqalam482 That would be the most deliciously ironic thing in the world!

[@Bigngreen]

He should have done a cover of man who sold the world.

[@brodieyake7735]

Never forget that Corey Glover was in Platoon before he started Living Colour.

[@dancarrington7100]

I'm surprised Johnny Depp wasn't in here. He's a guitar player. In fact he was in a band before he started acting.

[@RyuujinLetum]

From the title, it says you didn't know. I believe that's why

[@Rose_Nightingale]

We all know Johnny plays guitar. We all know that he'd rather be Rockstar at point in his career.

[@Svartsejd]

@@RyuujinLetum So why was Steven Seagal, Keanu Reeves, Peter Stormare, Jason Momoa & Kevin Bacon in the video? It's well-known that they play guitar & bass.

[@ChickenWyngz]

Of course Ryan Gosling plays guitar, he's me

[@christianholt4133]

I think you’re mistaken he’s actually me

[@Seen-ff5cv]

should've include Jensen Ackles, he plays and sings and has his own band

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

0:10 i didnt even know John Wick could play bass in the actual band called "The Wicks".

[@Mindbodyandspirit240]

Bokeem Woodbine-is a dope guitarist.

[@byung-hooh3857]

What's the title of the song Michael Shannon is singing?

[@gabrielbain]

Steve Martin. He plays a mean banjo.

[@IceBwithLemon]

The Steven Seagal one was EPIC!Truly🥲

[@heavymetal9749]

River Phoenix was good friends with Flea, Johnny Depp, and Keanu. He even had a band of his own where he played guitar.

[@ledgm108]

Not bad Jason Mamoa, not bad.

[@danielphillips5324]

The scary guy from the movies is in a band called best friends forever

[@ClimptonDiddlehopper]

Dude played Satan with another actor featured here.

[@abielpaz3187]

His Fargo performance was the scariest villain

[@cainealexander-mccord2805]

I wasn't gonna stop, but I'm glad I did! I'm totally looking up that Ansari clip (I want to see the rest!) and Jason Momoa? Son, I think you're in the wrong line of work.

[@ClimptonDiddlehopper]

It was on the goddamn comedy jam as I recognized the host

[@gabrielbain]

Jake weary ( Kevin from Fred) he's a musician.

[@gabrielbain]

Tobin Belle from saw. He plays guitar.

[@brodieyake7735]

Kevin Bacon had better be careful because that kind of playing where he is could attract a GRABOID!

[@Pseudodef]

Check out Jeff Daniels too!

[@carolinegodden4364]

John McEnroe was a surprise

[@northnick3317]

6:57 "And I'm Javert" :v

[@ironmaidens6663]

No David Duchovny?

[@user-ck7tl4me2j]

Just watch Dennis on Tucker Carlson play guitar and was like that's pretty cool

[@Bigngreen]

Let's be honest here... Is Steven Segal even a celebrity anymore? Also y'all at loudwire forgot Gary Sinise, the celebrity bass GOAT.

[@metalzonemt-2]

I knew about Jason Momoa and Kiefer Sutherland.

[@BobMonkeypimp]

But the video title says you *didn't* know.... Weird, huh?

[@metalzonemt-2]

@@BobMonkeypimp They're lying.😭

[@FiaclanGuirme]

Hulk Hogan and Kevin Costner.

[@maxnawas8405]

I’m surprised Damian Lewis and Johnny Depp aren’t on the list

[@danieldalan5237]

Doesn’t surprise me that Keanu can shred 😅

[@iii2187]

a lot of country and acoustic-esque things

[@henryhayth3303]

David Lynch should TOTALLY be on here.

[@garymurphy8703]

Sorry I didn't see or bass

[@mikemorris1988]

4:00 You cannot be serious!

[@prashilbison7038]

Kevin Bacon with a Llama

[@lawrencemelancon1718]

What does kenaeu not do lol

[@ClimptonDiddlehopper]

He doesn't do "suck"

[@MegaCunnie]

Bands…

[@adriantrusca1245]

Me.

[@Mr.N3cro]

Steven Segal made me laugh.

[@garymurphy8703]

That's not a guitar it's bass

[@slapnut825]

Fun story the guitar center I work at actually sold a vintage fender p bass to Jason Momoa

[@Rockstar-lx2li]

I was expecting Stephen King to play scarier music than Black Sabbath.. 😀

[@joscot9081]

Johnny Silverhand is real?

[@falloutboy6147]

I’m Ryan Gosling too play in guitar

[@danielphillips5324]

I can just imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger playing the saxophone

[@Danjoker.]

Bass is a guitar Loudwire.

[@RyuujinLetum]

Specifically bass

[@romeoslover817]

just because you play an instrument, doesn’t mean you can sing. just consider that

[@ClimptonDiddlehopper]

I wish EVERYONE UNDERSTOOD THAT...

[@Dineen714]

Or fcking cared

[@vio2112]

Should be titled "Celebrities you didnt know play guitar or bass very poorly and should stick to their day jobs."

[@ClimptonDiddlehopper]

Eh, not all of them.

[@davidwallgren7575]

😠 Why so judgemental? Their playing is far from sloppy. Don't be such a mean, etlist, snob.

[@scarysherrri699]

3 minutes old??

[@BobMonkeypimp]

I didn't know? So the creator of this video was the only person who knew? How do you know what I do and don't know?

[@SpeedBoost]

Of course Stephen King would choose a song where he gets to serenade a "Little Girl"!

[@danbauer3669]

What? No Lil Wayne?

[@dispuncho]

Total no names

[@BobMonkeypimp]

It's a list of people your Mom has let do her up the shitter.

Chuck Norris only needs to glare at an instrument and it produces a hit and pays him royalties!
