Matthew McConaughey Won’t Answer to “Matt”

Matthew McConaughey is everywhere at the moment promoting his two new films, Sing and Gold. Last night, during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, he revealed why you should never call him by the shortened name, Matt.

Simple answer: his mother hates it. He remembers a time in kindergarten when his friend asked him to play on the monkey bars, but his mom, who was his teacher, told him to never answer to Matt again. Matthew came from the bible, after all.
