Social media has been flooded with loving messages from fans, friends, and celebrities who are mourning the loss of Diane Keaton.

Among the many beautiful messages that have been penned in Keaton’s honor is one from “Sex and the City” actress Cynthia Nixon. Nixon posted several photos on Instagram on Sunday, October 12. The news of Keaton’s passing was announced on Saturday, October 11. She was 79. 

Cynthia Nixon Celebrates Diane Keaton

Nixon posted four photos of herself and Keaton smiling for the cameras. They appeared to have had a close relationship. In the caption, she shared her thoughts. “When I was a kid, Diane Keaton was my absolute idol. I loved her acting. I loved her vibe,” Nixon shared. She continued, “I loved her everything. Starting with when I was 12, I tried to dress like her. I wore my hair long. I sported men’s hats and vests and (even though my eyes were fine) I wore bookish glasses because I thought they made me look more like her.”

Keaton and her work had a lasting impact on Nixon, and meeting her was an incredibly special moment. “A little more than a decade ago I got to be in a movie called ‘Five Flights Up’ with her and it was like a dream come true,” Nixon wrote. “I was very shy around her, but I think she liked me and that meant everything to me. If you wanna know more about Diane Keaton watch Annie Hall, watch Reds, watch Shoot the Moon. She is extraordinary in them.”

Nixon also encouraged fans to read Keaton’s autobiography and ended her message with a touching statement. “She was one of a kind. I’m so sad she is gone.”

“Something’s Gotta Give~ she was Brilliant!!! RIP legend,” another fan shared. “She was truly one of a kind and will be greatly missed,” a third comment reads.

And she rocked Baby Boom!!”
