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.

91. He looks gross, dirty and like he had a stroke. It's a shame being so attractive goes hand in hand with self destruction!! How long do we give him to live this really fine life of his??? Why do you think his leading ladies get rid of him??? I bet he smells putrid with unbelievably bad breath!!!!! Good luck hunky-I think you'll need all you can get.

95. Everytime you see a picture of this guy he has a drink in his hand.
This guy has sever addiction problems.
I don't care how good looking he is the fact remains
he is in the height of addiction which only leads to
destruction. He is dirty and out of control.
I really hope someone intervenes and helps
Matthew get clean and sober.

100. Sexy? Ew. If you like your men dirty, smelly, about to vomit, falling-down-drunk, in your face, and eyes-rolling-back-into-their-pea-sized brains, then you girls have (very) low standards.

103. I think he not harming anyone. I like him as a actor and he looks like a great person. He single and having fun. She was not a match for him. Next time you parting let me know.

104. Penelope Cruz is the official fag hag. First Tom, then Matt. He is definitely a fine looking gay man.

105. When normal people do stuff like that, people call them drunks. When this moran does it, he's a party guy. Cruz was wise in dumping him. He's a loon. Remember the naked thing when the cops came calling. The guy is heading down the looney bin path...
