Matthew McConaughey makes beef sound sexy

Matthew McConaughey has recorded a new radio ad for the National Cattleman’s Beef Association and after listening to it I want to savor a filet mignon and touch myself.

Here’s a link to the audio for the ad.

He says: “You see those hickory smoke signals? That’s a sure sign it’s grilling season in the land of lean beef. Some strip steaks sizzling, tantalizing the entire suburb. That delicious aroma is all the motivation you need to seek out its source. Because out here a neighbor is just a friend you haven’t fed yet. Discover the power of protein in the land of lean beef. Beef, it’s what’s for dinner.”

With those few words, McConaughey has conjured up images of luring me to his trailer with the smell of grilling meat, sometime in the pre-Camila era. Fantasy is always sexier than reality, though. We published photos of McConaughey grilling last year and he looked pretty scruffy and was likely stinking of b.o. at the time. But he’s cleaned up now that he has a girlfriend and a new baby. I can always eat a burger and dream.

OK! Magazine has new details of McConaughey’s newborn baby, Levi. They say he “has his dad’s curls and his mom’s dark hair.” They also say Matt is helping out with changing the baby and giving him baths in order to give Camila a break. The upcoming issue of OK! features Jessica Alba and her baby Honor on the cover. McConaughey reportedly made a $3 million deal with the magazine for exclusive photos of Levi. He’s only a week and a half old at this point so it may be a little while before he makes his debut.

Thanks to US Weekly for the heads up on Matt’s ad.

    Beef sexy? Sure. McConaughey? Never.

    Even looking at those pics is off-putting. I feel any beef he’s been near would be forever tainted by the stink of his unwashed, unattractive self. *shudder*

    oh well, want my honest opinion? for a non-sexy man he makes a lot of money as one…so good for him!

  3. MissMara says:

    It’s no coincidence he’s asked for a radio ad, with his radiohead and dito arms and all…

  4. Andrea says:

    The only voice I hear when ready that ad is Sam Elliot. That man has one sexy voice!

  5. Cari says:

    Right, Andrea?? Thanks for bringing him back to mind…. đŸ™‚

    As a vegetarian – fully aware of what meat eating does to the body and the environment – this does nothing but turn my stomach!

  7. gg says:

    Please excuse my ignorance, but “what meat eating does to the environment?” You mean raising cows hurts the environment? Because I don’t exactly poop outdoors in drinking water …

    Before I got pregnant, I had such a difficult time digesting red meat, even though I loved the taste (I’m Mediterranean – if it’s not fish, pasta, whole grains, or veggies, I have trouble digesting it). But now I am all about a perfectly grilled steak or juicy burger. Now, if I could only get Sam Eliot to stop by and narrate while I cook and eat my dinner….

    So….his ads sound great! I eat beef once a week and enjoy every bite of my delicious barbecued steak. Moderation is the key.

    “See, that’s what I like about beef. I keep getting older, and beef stays the same age.”

  12. Erica says:

    Beef was sexy before Matthew! Mmm, carnivore-ish…

  13. Darn. Can’t put him on our website, then.

  14. RickVierra says:

    Why in the world would he do that?

    Is he just another sellout or is he actually dumb/sick enough to support the beef industry?

    What an a-hole.
    I honestly don’t think I’ll be able sit through one of his movies again.
