Matthew McConaughey made many revelations in his memoir, Greenlights, and he also talked about the instance when he was arrested in 1999. It so happened that the actor was enjoying a “jam session” while being n*ked. He was playing the bongo on a loud pitch, and as per American-Statesman’s report from Oct. 26, 1999, by reporter Bob Banta, there was a marijuana bong spotted on his table.

During his arrest, Matthew McConaughey gave a hard time to the officers. In his memoir, Greenlights, he said, “What I didn’t know was that while I was banging away in my bliss, two Austin policemen also thought it was time to barge into my house unannounced, wrestle me to the ground with nightsticks, handcuff me and pin me to the floor,” He refused to cover up himself and go down easy. He rather said, “F*ck you, motherf*cker! You broke in my house! F*ck yeah, I resisted!”
The Interstellar star said, “Before I’d taken three steps up the wall, the Cornhusker body-slammed me back down onto the brick footpath.” He jokingly said, “Two days later, BONGO NAKED T-shirts were all over Austin.” His neighbours and more officers arrived at the scene of action to see and deal with what was going around.
