May 26th, 2007 Surf’s Up For McConaughey

Matthew McConaughey, with surfboard in hand, got onto a skateboard and cruised down a street in Malibu, CA.

Just what exactly was he doing there?

He’s filming his next movie entitled, Surfer, Dude, (yes, comma included)!

There are reports that the movie just began filming earlier this month because they had to wait for Sophia Bush to finish filming The Narrows back in New York before beginning production on this movie. As of this post, IMDB does not list Sophia Bush as a definite actress in the movie, but if internet chatter is correct, she’ll most likely be in it than not.

Anyway, if you’ve got a thing for chiseled men in black and white striped surfer shorts, then McConaughey is your man.

April 12th, 2007 Do-It-Yourself McConaughey

Fitness freak Matthew McConaughey proves he’s more than a pretty face by assembling his own elliptical exercise machine overlooking the ocean on Wednesday in Malibu, Calif.

Matthew must be wearing down his joints and training too hard running on his own. Elliptical trainers are generally used to simulate running without causing excessive pressure to the joints!

Helped by a female assistant, the 37-year-old actor unpacked, assembled and finally tested the machine.

Happy with their handiwork, the pair gave each other a high five. HIGH FIVE!!!
