Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has received much attention due to several celebrities joining the popular Martial Arts. The latest addition to the list of stars is the famous band ‘Imagine Dragons‘ lead singer, Dan Reynolds. BJJ remains one of the most appealing forms of Martial arts among celebrities.
Dan Reynolds is one of the most famous pop artists of this generation. Although he has released other albums, his work with the band Imagine Dragons remains the most memorable aspect of his career. The artist is also the proud recipient of the Songwriters’ David Starlight Award. Reynolds has had a rough private life with a divorce from Aja Volkman, who also happens to be the mother of his four children.
Recently, Dan Reynolds started dating Minka Kelly. The two decided to celebrate the 4th of July in the USA by getting involved in the Jiu-Jitsu tournament conducted by UCLA. Dan was confident after his first victory but failed to secure the win in his second match. Nevertheless, the singer made a comeback by beating two of his opponents in back-to-back fights. This helped him finish the competition as the third-best fighter of the night, winning a bronze medal.
Many celebrities like Dave Bautista, Tom Brady, and, more recently, Mark Zuckerberg have all invested their time in BJJ. The attention these celebrities bring to Jiu-Jitsu benefits the world of Mixed Martial Arts. Fans are appreciative of the efforts put in by Dan Reynolds and look forward to seeing more.
Keanu Reeves, like Dan Reynolds excelled in Mixed Martial Arts
The John Wick movie star has made a name for himself by proving his longevity on the big screen for over two decades. Keanu Reeves is considered a true gentleman by any right-minded individual in Hollywood. Keanu has steadily grown from his initial success with Sandra Bullock and the movie Speed to the latest John Wick series. He has garnered love and support from millions of fans worldwide.
But a relatively unknown fact about the actor was that he preferred to do most of his stunts in an action movie alone. Reports suggest that Keanu Reeves did 90% of his stunts in John Wick. The actor could only accomplish this by dedicating time and focus daily to Martial Arts like BJJ. This served him well, as movie buffs highly admire the action sequences in the John Wick series.
Many celebrities like Dan Reynolds and Keanu Reeves utilize the opportunities to learn some form of Mixed Martial Arts. This investment seems to benefit highly successful people’s minds and bodies.
