Matthew McConaughey says he fully embraced being Hollywood's rom-com 'go-to guy': 'You damn right I am'

Matthew McConaughey is opening up about his run as Hollywood's rom-com guy in the '00s — and how he fully embraced it. Until he didn't. Discussing that era on Apple Music's Beyond the Influence Radio With Tim McGraw, the Oscar winner recalled, "I'm successful at rom-coms. The go-to guy at rom-coms. I’m living in a pad in Malibu, surfing on the beach shirtless. I'm shirtless rom-com McConaughey and I'm like, 'You damn right I am. Those rom-coms are paying for these houses that I'm renting on the beach, baby. Guilty. Come on.'"
