Matthew McConaughey was on The Today Show talking about his new movie, Fools' Gold and his upcoming and most important role: Daddy!
Matthew is anxious to show his child the world: “Well,
that child is probably going to fill his passport pretty quickly.
Culture and travel’s been the best education I’ve had in my life and my
child’s going to have that, hopefully.”
He also talked about his girlfriend Camilla Alves: “It’s
the first woman that I’ve met that I haven’t met through friends. That
doesn’t really happen too often. I saw her across the room and I
couldn’t get my eyes off of her. So I invited her over and started
making a margarita and then I noticed right away that this was not the
kind of girl you just want to wave over. So I got my butt out of the
chair, went over there and introduced myself and said, ‘You can come
over and bring any of your friends you want to back to our table.’ And
that’s what kind of got her to come over in the first place. And I
haven’t wanted to ask anyone else out for the last two years.”
And how will baby will fit into his maverick lifestyle? “I
do have a trailer. So I can pull it up to any backyard on any coast I
want to. I worked hard to get a lifestyle and live in a place where I
don’t have to wear a shirt or shoes. I’m going to keep working on it so
I can put myself on a beach somewhere on the planet. Yeah, I enjoy the
sunshine and I enjoy the summertime.”
I can totally picture a diapered mini-Matthew toddling along the beach with his Daddy.
