Watch Matthew McConaughey Party Hard in NSFW First Trailer for ‘The Beach Bum’

Just imagine if Harmony Korine, the guy who directed Spring Breakers and wrote Kids,  enlisted Matthew McConaughey to play a drug-addled beach bum in a bid to make a classic stoner movie. 

Oh, and he enlisted a supporting cast that includes Jimmy Buffett, Snoop Dogg, Jonah Hill, Martin Lawrence, Zac Efron and Isla Fisher to boot. Great news: This actually happened and you can watch the first Red Band trailer for Korine’s The Beach Bum above. 

McConaughey stars as a hard-partying dude named Moondog who seems to spend most of his time hanging out, getting wasted by the water, and yes, even playing bongos. So, yeah, basically McConaughey was born to play this role. Moondog asks a convenience store clerk for some acid in the beginning of the trailer to the tune of “Crimson and Clover”, so you know this dude is all about getting mega weird. 

“Life’s a fucking rodeo. I’m gonna suck the nectar out of it and fuck it raw ’til the wheels come off,” says McConaughey’s Moondog in the trailer. Well…Alright, alright, alright.

The Beach Bum hits theaters on March 22, 2019, but definitely watch the trailer now to prepare your brain for it.

The former Maxim cover model had to cool off on set of her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit shoot in on the Caribbean island of Nevis, so she had the crew drench her bikini-clad body with a bucket of water.

The playful moment was one of many extremely GIF-worthy outtakes featured in the clip. You’re welcome in advance. 

Trolls might try to shame Graham for being dangerously curvy, but they do nothing to shake her confidence. Just take a look at what she told the New York Times earlier this week. 

“People ask, ‘How do you get your confidence?'” Graham said. And it’s like how wouldn’t I have confidence? Or they will say, ‘You are so brave for putting on that swimsuit.’ Well why wouldn’t I do that?”

“That’s not called bravery — that is called putting on a swimsuit,” she added. “Everybody has their idea of what beauty is or what perfect is or what the right shape is and they just express it in a different ways.” 

Damn straight! Show you agree by liking one of her stunning recent Instagram photos below:

Auction of Washington Wines Raises $4.3 Million (Wine Spectator)

The 31st annual Auction of Washington Wines surpassed expectations by raising more than $4.3 million to benefit Seattle Children’s Hospital and Washington State University’s viticulture and enology program—thanks in large part to a record number of winemakers at the Aug. 18 gala and to its new “Kids who Give” theme.

“There was such an air of enthusiasm and excitement in the room,” auction executive director Shelley Tomberg told Wine Spectator.

The 760 guests at the gala drew inspiration from Seattle Children’s Hospital patients like Makenna Schwab who, during the event’s raise-the-paddle portion, raised $800,000 by auctioning off her Make-a-Wish gift—a trip to the Jurassic World set and a meet-and-greet with actor Chris Pratt—to benefit other young patients. “Presentations in person from the children patients of Seattle Children’s Hospital were a super personal touch,” said wine collector and donor Hank Sauer.

More than 80 wineries participated at the opening private barrel auction and the main live auction gala. Bids raised more than $2.7 million, including the highest-selling lot in the auction’s history: a three-couple trip to visit some of Bordeaux’s best, including Château Haut-Brion and Château Lafite Rothschild, which sold for $160,000.

The lot was donated by DeLille Cellars. “It was a great honor to achieve the highest single-selling auction lot in the history of the Auction of Washington Wines, and, more importantly, to make a significant impact for Seattle Children’s Hospital,” said DeLille Cellars CEO Tom Dugan. “The auction means so much to DeLille Cellars and the Washington State wine community.”

Other top lots included “Cayuse Comes of Age,” a collection of 10 three-liter bottles donated by Christophe Baron from his three wineries, including eight from Cayuse. The collection sold for $37,500. The “Betz Night Ever” lot offered a tasting of Wine Spectator‘s Wine of the Year across a decade, starting with the 2007 winner, Clos des Pape Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2005, and ending with the 2017 winner, Duckhorn Merlot Napa Valley Three Palms Vineyard 2014. The lot, donated by Betz Family Winery founder Bob Betz, sold for $39,000. Betz will also moderate the tasting for the winning bidder.

“The auction lots were unparalleled from previous auctions,” said Betz. “I wanted to bid on most of the items.”
