McConaughey Gets Hitched

(Newser) – No word on whether he put a shirt on to do it, but Matthew McConaughey is now a married man. The actor wed longtime girlfriend and two-time babymama Camila Alves yesterday in a Texas wedding with some sort of "high-end" camping theme probably understandable only in Texas. Predictably, the ceremony was emotional: "There was a moment when (Matthew) leaned down and whispered something in (Camila's) ear and you could see a tear coming down her face," gushes one guest to Us Weekly. "Everyone let out a collective sigh." Sigh.

But back to the camping thing, in which guests including Woody Harrelson and Richard Linklater partied in "state-of-the-art tents" on McConaughey and Alves' property: "It's definitely a campground, but they weren't exactly roughing it," one source tells Us. "They have showers, restrooms, and air conditioning. It's very unique, high-end camping."

I mean really,what kind of man waits till he has had a few kids with a woman before he asks her to marry him,She could of went on with her life,if she had wanted to. Maybe she should of said,well honey after we have two more i will think about marrying you.Like he has her on a choke chain! He did wrong! now will he really be Mr Right.Who knows?

Unlike Sean Connery, Matthew has been loosing his looks to too much partying over the years so just maybe he thought he better settle down while there was someone who would still have him. However, looks definitely aren't everything in a relationship.

Two-time babymama? Is that a title, accolade, or slam? What a stupid, stupid word.
