In 2024, Keegan was forced to deny being the leader of a Los Angeles cult It was founded 10 years ago.
In an exclusive interview with Daily Mail.com, Keegan addressed allegations that Full Circle, which operated out of a former Hare Krishna temple in Venice Beach from 2014 to 2017, was a cult.
Keegan said: ‘For myself, it’s like, ‘Okay, I know who I am, I know my life, it’s not what it’s written about, but you know what it is, what are you going to do?’ “I’m happy to move forward with steps like these.”
‘In a way I understand, and I accept responsibility for getting myself into this situation, but I don’t apologize for it. But it is what it is and it won’t ruin my day.
We did our part to raise awareness, even if it meant being called funny names. But it’s also funny because I’ve never met anyone else accused or accused of being a cult leader, so I have a unique title in that sense!’ he laughed and added: ‘You can’t take life too seriously.’
‘I think the 10 Things are the biggest relics,’ he said (seen in the film with Ledger and Julia Stiles)

He later claimed: ‘There is some pioneering in this because I can’t tell you how many times people have felt more comfortable in their spiritual endeavors or quests, if you will, by saying, ‘Okay, this is something I need to look into too.’
‘A lot of people came after reading the bullshit and discovering things, and they’re very grateful for that, and I will say that during that particular period when this is happening now, it’s actually provided a way to go to other places to do things like meditation and sound healing.
‘So since then the actual things we do within the scope of this “cult activity” have become more normalized.
‘That’s a good thing, you should meditate, you should take some time out and think about doing healthy things for yourself, not just working out and going to the pub. Do something other than that… social stuff.’
