McConaughey's Lost Weekend

Posted Jul 7th 2006 1:24PM by TMZ Staff

Matthew McConaughey celebrated his independence from former girlfriend Penelope Cruz with a three-day bender in Costa Rica over the Fourth of July weekend.


Taking a cue from the movie that launched his career, the "Sexiest Man Alive" left much to be desired partying on the beach looking 'dazed and confused.'

Check out pics of Matthew's weekend beach blast.



A barefoot, shirtless, and sweaty Matthew got his groove on by drinking, dancing, writhing on the floor and even shushing one of his fellow vacationers.



Apparently McConaughey recuperated in no time, because just a couple of days later the confirmed bachelor was spotted hanging out with his bike riding buddies Jake Gyllenhaal and Lance Armstrong in Malibu.

62. I agree he's single and living it up. Anytime he wants it live it up with me he can give me a call we'd have a great time playing naked bongos and running on the beach! Way to go Matthew!

64. He's such a pig! First, he never wears deodarant. He has confirmed this live on TV with BabaWawa. Second, he's got that crazy, "I might do anything" look in his eyes...and not in a good way. He seems like a manic control freak. And now, he's lying on the floor drunk. I bet he puked all over some poor girl who was impressed to be around Matthew McConnaughey. Sexiest Man Alive...uh I don't think so. The sexiest man is Jakey! Jake Gyllenhaal who is the coolest, most delicious, gorgeous sweet thing I have ever seen! Jake has class. Matt's an ass.

66. Rock on Matthew. Why shouldn't you be entitled to some fun after working on a flick. I am concerned though, where is FOXY and who is taking care of her.

72. The girl stretched her ear and the "sea shell/unicorn egg" is a PLUG.
I have my ear lobes stretched as well.

Stop being so rude, it's not so uncommon that you should make fun of her for it.
