Matthew McConaughey talks about his father's death; tells Piers Morgan how to lose 43 pounds quickly
He dropped a jaunting 47 pounds to play AIDS patient Ron Woodruff in the film "Dallas Buyers Club" and now Matthew McConaughey is nominated for best actor at this year’s Academy Awards for his role in the film.
The Golden Globe winner for Best Actor in a Drama explains to Piers Morgan how grateful he is for his success:
“I'm very engaged in what's happening, extremely appreciative, understand, you know, what the reasons are that someone would say - be deeming me with a nomination, you know, and what's been going on in my life.”
But there are some moments, the most important ones, may be too powerful or too painful for McConaughey to want to re-live.
McConaughey’s father died in 1992 before he was able to see his youngest son bloom into a movie star he is known as today. The Texas-raised star still feels the loss deeply:
“Anybody who loses a family member, if you lose a father, that's the main crutch in a man's life,” the 44-year-old says, “And it's there for a reason, because you know if it ever comes down to it, you've got your own father to lean up against.”
McConaughey tells Morgan that his father’s death gave him courage and integrity, and that if his father were here to watch the Oscars, “he’d be loving it ... he’d be hamming it up.”
What’s McConaughey's secret to rapid weight loss?
“Go to Mexico and drink the water,” says the actor with a wink.
Watch the clip and listen to the video as the two men share a hearty laugh, then tune to CNN tonight at 9 for the full interview.

Piers Morgan go home to britain, we do not want you here and your comments anymore
I vote Mike as the biggest imbecile on the internet today.
I live in Mexico, the water's just fine. Mexicans drink bottled water (and yes they have also Fiji & Evian) or they have water filters installed in their homes. So stop the bad publicity
hahaah very funy stupid guy....
/Matthew-mcconaughey comment out of context. Ignorant! You need to travel more. Mexico water,as New York water, as Paris water is for bathing no for drinking.
I'm funny and I find this Mexican
Hey matthew McConaughey you are a bad actor i mean horrible actor you have a tick accent hard to understand. . have you drink your home town water in texas you must have..test like oil...so don't make stupid comments about drinking water in Mexico losser!!!!
"you have a tick accent hard to understand." LOL!
I thought McConaughey was going to punch Piers in the mouth when he started off with the bongos story. Piers never fully recovered from that..
You not only can't drink the water in Mexico, you can't eat the fruit... and I live in Mexico!
What's wrong with our water in México? And what part of Mexico you visited?? Be careful with your comments Mr. Matthew.
very stupid comment about mexico ...payaso!!!!
I can't believe he said that about Mexico! I loved his movie, but this? I mean like really? He's an ignorant.
Piers I like your show a LOT, and I like you a LOT. I was shocked your show is cancelled. We prefer you to Larry King. Be proud of the work you have done. Thank you for a few good years.
Matthew is an amazing actor. So proud of him!! I really hope he wins the Oscar. His role as Ron in Dallas Buyers Club is outstanding. So moving, and intense. He's an actors actor.

The subsequent time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I mean, I do know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something attention-grabbing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could possibly fix if you happen to werent too busy in search of attention.

An interesting discussion is worth comment. I think that you should write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo subject but generally people are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers

Can I simply say what a relief to find somebody who actually is aware of what theyre talking about on the internet. You definitely know the way to bring an issue to mild and make it important. Extra folks must read this and perceive this aspect of the story. I cant consider youre not more popular since you positively have the gift.
