Today in smart decisions that actors make, Matthew McConaughey, long known for going big or going home (to play shirtless bongos) lost close to 50 damn pounds to play a dying AIDS patient in his new film Dallas Buyers Club. Weight wasn’t the only thing McConaughey lost — apparently his vision started to go out, too.
Matthew immediately consulted doctors, “who confirmed that when you starve yourself you begin to lose your vision.” Thankfully, it wasn’t permanent, the insider tells In Touch. “They monitored him, and things are back to normal now.”
It’s not surprising considering the amount of stress extreme weight loss puts on your body — plus, what could he have weighed to begin with? He’s not exactly large and in charge to begin with — I’m guessing he began at a buck fifty at most. THAT’S JUST A GUESS, I’M NOT ACTUALLY A SCALE. Anyway, pass that around as fact, and let’s hope he finally got to indulge in some of those hamburgers he described so graphically. [In Touch]
Mariah Carey is leaving American Idol because it’s a sinking ship and also because she’s launching a world tour.
Hell yeah! Dream lover, come rescue me. [Perez Hilton]
Bon Jovi reduced ticket prices in Spain because of the financial crisis and also because he’s awesome.
“We did a study and we saw that due to the economic situation Spain wasn’t going to be on the roadmap. But I didn’t want to leave out fans from a country I love that has treated me well for 30 years,” he said.
