Matthew McConaughey Is Modest

mcconaughey_ad.jpg

As several Deceiver commenters pointed out last week, Matthew McConaughey rarely goes outside with a shirt on, right?

Like, maybe never?

So it’s kind of oddly quaint that as the star of a Dolce & Gabbana ad, he insisted that the European version (where he’s half naked) not air in America in the name of modesty.

The Daily Mail reports:

The 38-year-old, current face of Dolce & Gabbana’s new fragrance The One, insisted on shooting two ads to preserve his modesty at home in the States.

‘Matthew didn’t want to be bare-chested on billboards in America, although he doesn’t seem to have a problem stripping off in his films,’ says a source.

‘He insisted on having his shirt on for the ad in the States, and off in the one for Europe and Asia.’

I guess because he looks less like a whore with his clothes on.

    I think in his next ad campaign, he should wear a shirt. But a loose fitting button type, unbuttoned of course, that would show he’s a free spirited, devil-may-care type of guy. Then they could add a woman. You know a real uptight, corporate type. But hot (glasses would hide her hotness). Then as the campaign moves along they would embrace their differences and fall in love.

    Am I confusing advertising with his last six or eight movies? Or am I an ad genius.

    Both Pasta.

    But y’know, it’s not fair. How come guys with pecs and abs get to walk around with their shirts off but guys with “show-ers” (as opposed to “grow-ers”) don’t get to walk around without underwear?

    ohh…Holly….that was cruel. Are you trying to render us all infertile? I will never look at a penis the same way again.

    So sorry, OLD. I just love that this probably ran in some family newspaper somewhere.

    And I know what you mean. I’ll never look at Dick the same way either.

    That’s probably just his catheter receptacle.
