Kate Hudson said of Matthew McConaughey, “I think he will be an incredible dad. I think because people see Matthew always out doing something whether it’s out dancing in a bar or being on the beach or taking a hike with some crazy bandana on, I think that, like anything, they take their image and what they want somebody else to be and then they just run with that.”
The often shirtless, beach wanderer made note that the apple won’t fall far from the tree: “Make no doubt about it. My kids will dance. He will be on the beach and he will be taking hikes with a wild bandana on.”
And despite tabloid coverage of 38-year-old McConaughey’s behavior, Hudson is confident the actor, who announced girlfriend Camila Alves, who turned 25 Monday, is pregnant in January, will be a great family man.
“Matthew happens to be one of the most loving and loyal people I know and his family is important to him,” said Hudson, who has a 4-year-old son, Ryder, of her own. “He’s great with kids and I think he’ll be a very responsible and absolute blast of a dad.”
But will the little one have all the right moves like papa? Said McConaughey: “He might not dance like I do. Regardless, he or she is still going to have a little rhythm.”
The daddy-to-be was all smiles when discussing the baby he and girlfriend, model Camilla Alves, are expecting this summer, “It’s not a science, but I think I’ve got the instincts for it. I’m looking forward to the big adventure!”
McConaughey tells ET that his friends and family have already been offering advice, “One thing I’ve heard that’s consistent is, ‘whatever plans you make, throw them out the window!’”
He also reveals that the couple will not learn the sex of the baby, “We want to keep the suspense as high as possible!”
Have you seen the trailer for “Fool’s Gold” yet? I think it looks really cute. I think they have great on-screen chemistry. “How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days” is still one of my favorite guilty pleasures!
Matthew McConaughey — Ultimate Fighting guy? Apparently so, says his rep, who said yesterday that his chestacular client was injured while prepping for his role in “The Grackle.”
Matt was training Ultimate Fighting Championship-style, says Alan Nierob, when he cut his face. Last week, pap shots showed Matthew wearing a bandage over his left eye while riding in the passenger seat of a car.
