Hudson begged McConaughey to use deodorant

By Alexandra Heilbron on February 5, 2008 | 29 Comments


Fool’s GoldAlthough Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson got along extremely well on and off the set of their latest film, Fool’s Gold, she wasn’t shy about asking him to make a change to his deodorant-free policy. “She always brings a salt rock, which is some natural deodorant, and says, ‘Would you please put this on?’” McConaughey said in a quote on contactmusic.com. “I just never wore it. No cologne, no deodorant.” Other women have also noticed his “manstink,” but it seems they’ve learned to deal with it. “The women in my life, including my mother, have all said, ‘Hey, your natural smell smells, one, like a man and, two, smells like you.’” Very tactful, ladies.

    Poor hygiene, pure and simple. Gross!

    I agree with anonymous, there is nothing wrong with using natural products…there is nothing worse than being near someone who smells like BO….

    Only a mother could love the stench coming from her son! If he doesn’t wear deodorant, the very least he could do is shave his pits; helps reduce the stink.

    Wasn’t bad enough to keep her away from him apparently, at least long enough to get pregnant! lol

    Since when is Kate Hudson pregnant by Matthew McConnaughey???

  6. tributegirl • February 5, 2008 @ 2:57 PM

    Oops, my bad. I was thinking of Camila, SHE got close enough to get pregnant by him!

  7. sk8tergirl • February 5, 2008 @ 7:14 PM

    Ha Ha! funny.

  8. Nancy • February 5, 2008 @ 7:17 PM

    Yeah, that is pretty gross. Personal hygiene is a MUST!!!

  9. tributegirl • February 6, 2008 @ 11:24 AM

    Very gross. So it didn’t say whether or not he used the salt rock. I just couldn’t be around him smelling like that.

  10. Nancy • February 6, 2008 @ 12:11 PM

    No wonder some people thought he was gay….they never seen him with a woman for soooooo long because he STINKS!!!! How his model girlfriend can put up with it I will never know!!

  11. Nancy • February 6, 2008 @ 12:12 PM

    Makes me wonder if he brushes his teeth????? Since he like to go au naturale!! Ha ha.

  12. tributegirl • February 6, 2008 @ 12:18 PM

    Gross! Wonder if he wipes his *ss? No, never mind, I don’t want to know! His girlfriend must have scented candles all over the place, or maybe she sprays him in his sleep with febreeze!

  13. anonymous • February 6, 2008 @ 10:51 PM

    do we have a bo problem here

  14. tributegirl • February 7, 2008 @ 9:08 AM

    Dear Kate,

    Obviously, he’s just not that into you!

  15. Sean Mulcahy • February 7, 2008 @ 9:27 AM

    Spraying him in his sleep with Febreeze. tributegirl, that was hilarious 🙂

  16. tributegirl • February 7, 2008 @ 10:43 AM

    Thanks Sean! By the way, that was me that said that, but the 9:08 am post today was not. That idiot obviously has no clue, Kate knows Matthew isn’t into her, he’s into his pregnant girlfriend, and I doubt Kate is into Matthew either.

  17. Sean Mulcahy • February 7, 2008 @ 11:45 AM

    Yes, I had an idea the 9:08 post was not yours.

  18. tributegirl • February 7, 2008 @ 4:04 PM

    No, it was mine. Gotcha! So, this Matthew dude, I think we should all go au natural, maybe the stink would end up reaching him and he’d take the hint.

  19. Arnold • February 7, 2008 @ 6:31 PM

    “I think we should all go au natural”

    tributegirl, Nancy and I are waaaaay ahead of you!

  20. Karen • February 7, 2008 @ 6:45 PM

    Ewww, are you KIDDING me???? I put deoderant everywhere, pits, palms, feet, neck, wherever I sweat! You guys are just grooooooss!

  21. Leon Me • February 7, 2008 @ 11:03 PM

    Anyone smell fish?

  22. Anonymous • February 8, 2008 @ 1:50 AM

    no, just stinky armpits.

    his mother isn’t tactful, she’s olfactory challenged!

  23. Tracy • February 8, 2008 @ 8:19 AM

    the man is OBSESSED with brushing his teeth! he said so on several talk shows. carries a toothbrush with him at all times! to bad the bacteria from not washing his armpits constantly (in lieu of wearing deodorant) is going to make him VERY sick and could possibly cause gum disease and poof there goes his pearly whites!
    lets hope when the baby is born, she can handle the stench when daddy picks her up!

  24. Arnold • February 8, 2008 @ 8:30 AM

    What’s the big stink all about?

  25. tributegirl • February 8, 2008 @ 9:14 AM

    Oh, I never thought of that, Tracy! Maybe the stench will make the baby spit up on him, which will actually make him smell BETTER!!! He probably doesn’t wear deoderant because Mary Kate told him not to! She probably sent over her bodyguards to remove all deoderant from his trailer! LMAO

  26. Larva Man • February 8, 2008 @ 9:25 AM

    What’s really disturbing is that his boobs are bigger than hers.

  27. Anonymous • February 8, 2008 @ 4:56 PM

    his are “manly pecs” and nice ones to go with the abs. too bad he’s a stinker.

  28. xray • February 13, 2008 @ 12:06 AM

    why would he be worried about impressing her or some other chick?

    remember this is the guy that was arrested for smoking drugs while playing the bongos naked with his boyfriend. is that the kind of thing that normal guys do?

  29. Poppa John • February 15, 2008 @ 8:13 PM

    He wasn’t with his boyfriend, he was stoned, nude, and alone in the middle of the night. Sounds like a fun evening, actually…..
