'08
Matthew McConaughey’s son and Nicole Kidman’s daughter, Sunday, share the same Monday birthday of 7/7/08. Matthew and his girlfriend, Brazilian model Camila Alves, welcomed a baby boy at 6:22 p.m. in LA yesterday, reports People Magazine. McConaughey’s rep confirmed the birth, and said the newborn weighed 7 lbs., 4 oz. There is no word yet as to the baby’s name.
In recent interviews McConaughey spoke candidly about looking forward to being a father and having an active role in his child’s life. He called fatherhood his next journey, saying “to be the architect of a little creature’s life is my next big adventure and I can’t wait for it to begin.” When asked what he’s looking forward to he said “every single day” and that he’ll definitely be changing diapers. Matthew seems like he’ll be an attentive and enthusiastic dad.
Congratulations to Camila and Matthew and best wishes for a wonderful life with their new addition.
Update: OK! Magazine had this exclusive statement from Matthew McConaughey. Do you think that means they’ve already negotiated a deal for the photos?
“A healthy baby boy was born,” Matthew tells OK! in an exclusive statement. “Camila and I were side by side the entire time. We are both tired and elated, and are so happy to have created the greatest miracle in the world — Having a child and making a family. Now comes the greatest adventure — raising one, together.”

Update 2: The baby’s name is Levi Alves McConaughey. Here’s a story with more details on why Matt chose the name.

I’m not a fan of McConaughey, but I totally see him as an involved dad.

He will make a good father. Dating him though seems as much fun as watching paint dry. I am I the only one who finds him so boring? His babymama seems just as lifeless. That baby is not going to be a fun person.

Why, when two good looking people produce a baby, do people automatically think “supermodel”. Has are society become that obsessed with looks?, i guess so.

I’ve known a lot of great looking people who have really homely children together. You just never know.
But I’m glad the little boy is here safely, and I hope they’ll be happy together for a long time.

Lola, McConaughey may be a lot of things, promiscuous, philanderer, stinky, ripped, smarmy, stoned, but boring doesn’t spring to mind.

As for the comments that the baby could be ugly even with gorgeous parents is just petty. Even Rumor Willis is attractive, she just isn’t as photogenic as her parents. She *is* annoying because she feels entitled, like Hilton.

Well I’m not “obssesed with looks.” I made the super model comment as a compliment to the parents. Geez, lighten up

Rumor *is not* attractive. Bruce Willis’s features don’t look good on a girl. Saying she’s simply not photogenic is like saying Britney Spears just needed a good night’s sleep.

I never said the baby would be ugly. If i wanted to make such a statement i would have typed that instead, stop “reading between the lines”. The reason why i typed that particular opinion is that when ever good looking famous couples have a child, someone always makes a “supermodel” type comment. If i wanted to attact someone personally i would.

I find him terribly gross, and boring as well. I’m sure their baby will be fine however. How’s that?

Kaiser/ Hippacrat @ 6:36 pm — Totally agree about Rumor Willis. Even though she is well-connected, it’s so weird to read glowing descriptions of her attractiveness. WIKI-ALITY?
$3M for first pictures of this Alves-McConaughey baby? How presumptuous, opportunistic, and just plain greedy of his parents.
