“My wife and I sleep with you almost every night”: Michael Bublé Admitted Matthew McConaughey is There Everytime His Wife Goes to Bed Because of a Medical Condition

The pop culture iconography of Matthew McConaughey is irrefutable. After finding a standhold in Hollywood as a rom-com lead in the early 2000s, his career trajectory followed an arc led by the exemplary Tom Hanks as he gradually shifted into more dramatic roles, eventually winning an Oscar for his performance in Dallas Buyers Club.

Since then, the actor has delivered a slew of Oscar-worthy performances in films ranging from Interstellar to True Detective while also keeping in touch with his more grounded and eccentric side in films like Magic Mike and The Gentlemen.

Matthew McConaughey: Alright, Alright, Alright!

While many a dream has been stolen by the star of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Matthew McConaughey barely retains his place on the vanguard of pop culture like he used to only a handful of years ago. While the actor may have receded back to his countryside Texan ranch, the echoes of his once powerful and magnetic presence still reverberate across the halls of Hollywood.

The most prominent example of Matthew McConaughey’s influence could be understood through one conversation with Michael Bublé on an episode of The Graham Norton Show, during which the singer revealed a most TMI tidbit of information about his nightly routine with his wife:

My wife and I sleep with you almost every night. There’s an app called Calm, and I have insomnia and he has the most beautiful voice and I turn it on and I just hear, ‘Well, hello everybody. It’s me, Matthew McConaughey and I’m gonna tell you a bedtime story.’

While the sentiment behind such an admission can certainly be understood, celebrities do sometimes blur the line between private secrets and information meant to be shared in public. While the admission may have been harmless in essence, one can only sympathize with McConaughey’s awkward discomfort as he is forced to contend with the fact that every night, Bublé is turning his voice into a library of ASMR lullaby.

The Legacy of Matthew McConaughey

The iron reign and dominance of Matthew McConaughey over Hollywood has somewhat loosened its grip to filter in newer, younger talents like Paul Mescal and Austin Butler. The first 2 decades of the 21st century that raised him up and nurtured his talent now leave him behind as the next generation of cinema-going audience takes over.

The surety of an era when the familiar face of McConaughey would yank people out of their homes and launch them head first into the theaters is gone. Glen Powell, Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, and Timothée Chalamet have taken over that role from their predecessor as McConaughey basks in the afterglow of his Hollywood career.

But it is not yet time to bid adieu to the powerhouse performer, despite him entering the third act of his career with projects like Taylor Sheridan’s Yellowstone universe spin-off series, 2024.

No release date has yet been announced for the spin-off series, 2024.
