Alright, alright, alright — who is going to tell Matthew McConaughey he's lost too much weight?
The Magic Mike actor was photographed Nov. 9 at Los Angeles International Airport looking extremely frail. The weight loss isn't part of some fad diet, but for his role in the upcoming film The Dallas Buyers Club, in which he plays a drug addict in 1980s-era Texas who contracts HIV. The story is based on the real life of Ron Woodruff, who became one of the first AIDS activists and launched one of the first AIDS support groups.
