Matthew mcconaughey gay

Did Matthew McConaughey 'Come Out of the Closet'? A misleading headline reporting that the actor had "come out" had nothing to do with his sexuality. Dan Evon Published May 10, Long story short, Mathew McConaughey is not gay. "The Conservative Post was evidently using a more generic interpretation of the term "out of the closet" in its headline," the Snopes. Matthew McConaughey's gay fans are no doubt looking forward to "Magic Mike," which will feature scenes of the star stripping down to a thong alongside fellow heartthrobs Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello.

Overshadowed was the fact that both of the best actor awards went to actors in Dallas Buyers Club, a movie that telescopes a set of events in the early years of the AIDS epidemic and highlights the lives and struggles of its early victims (), mostly gay men. In the s, McConaughey became known for starring in romantic comedies, including The Wedding Planner (), How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (), Failure to Launch (), Fool's Gold (), and Ghosts of Girlfriends Past (), establishing him as a sex symbol.

THE OSCARS have now been thoroughly dissected, and again this year they represent a cataclysmic shift in society, or so the critics and bloggers high and low have declared. That, at any rate, became the widespread narrative of the mainstream media as they went from trophy counts to Larger Significance. Overshadowed was the fact that both of the best actor awards went to actors in Dallas Buyers Club , a movie that telescopes a set of events in the early years of the AIDS epidemic and highlights the lives and struggles of its early victims , mostly gay men.

I was also rooting for Matthew McConaughey to win the award for Best Actor—because he really is amazing in the film; and I was thrilled when his name was called. But then came the acceptance speech. But the thing is, the character he played was a real person, and I would argue that McConaughey owes his Oscar to Ron Woodroof in a more profound sense than to anyone that he actually thanked in his speech mostly God and his mother.

The story he was telling was that of a man who became a bona fide hero by organizing a buyers club to distribute potentially life-prolonging drugs to gay men, in the meantime shaking up a befuddled Dallas medical establishment and even going up against U. That all this was delivered in a thick Southern accent may have neutralized its impact to some extent, if only because it played into a stereotype about a region of the country where people are seen to wear their religious convictions on their sleeve.

And, of course, this accent also happens to be associated with elevated rates of homophobia as well as other historical bigotries. Perhaps he was simply being true to his convictions, but it would have been so refreshing if McConaughey had decided to break with the stereotype and affirm the validity of his character in Dallas Buyers Club , not to mention the validity of the gay community that Woodroof served and of GLBT people in general.

Celebrities such as Matthew

Richard Schneider Jr. I agree with you. I believe he did mention Aids and Ron Woodruff in his acceptance speech the day before at the Independent Spirit Awards. Many people play evil roles but that does not mean they are evil or accept the evil choices or views of others they are acting like. Many play good, Holy, and wholesome people but that does not mean the actors are good, Holy and wholesome either.

Not with his political aspirations. Playing middle of the road. He even interviewed Fauci during the plandemic.
