There is no doubt that Matthew McConaughey is one of the biggest Hollywood stars. Known for his versatility, the actor has been part of several projects and has also managed to bag an Academy Award.

However, he’s not the only one in the household who wants to be in the spotlight. The actor once revealed how Momma McConaughey, a.k.a. Mary Kathleen was also ready to steal the show by starring in her son’s movies.

Back in 2017, during an appearance on ABC’s Popcorn With Peter Travers, McConaughey revealed that his mother wanted to be a movie star as well. He said, “Every single role, she wanted to be in the movie.” He then joked she often visited him on sets and asked where the guy in charge was, only to trouble him later.

The actor even mimicked his mother’s movie pitch and told how she wants to work on a remake for The Graduate where she portrays Anne Bancroft and Matthew plays Dustin Hoffman’s part. 

Power celebrity couple Jay-Z and Beyonce have made several headlines over the years, including the time they opened up about naming their eldest daughter. The former once revealed that rhe duo had planned a different name for their daughter instead of Blue Ivy Carter. 

During his chat with Gayle King on CBS Mornings, Jay-Z candidly reflected on the story of their firstborn sharing details of how Blue Ivy got her name which wasn’t their first choice. The couple had decided to name her Brooklyn as a nod to JAY-Z’s origins where he was born and raised. “It was supposed to be Brooklyn,” the 54-year-old told King in 2023.

However, as the pregnancy proceeded, the nickname “Blueberry” started being used with love, which was inspired by the small picture on the sonogram, “We was calling her Blueberry. Like, ‘Look at the little blueberry.’” Over time, the nickname evolved into something even more fluent, “It was just natural,” the Young Forever rapper said. The couple later dismissed the “berry” and just called her Blue.

His revelation rules out a long theory held by fans that Blue Ivy’s name meant something associated with his highly famous album series Blueprint. It was born instead from tender moments between the expectant parents as Beyoncé was pregnant. For nearly nine months, they referred to the baby in the womb as “Blueberry,” a sweet nickname that finally led to her eventual given name. 

Although the Renegade singer didn’t throw a bone as to what Blue’s middle name, Ivy, means, fans have gone ahead and surmised that it was related to the number four, which holds big significance for both Beyonce and the rapper since their birthdays fall on September 4 and December 4, respectively.

Interestingly, the pair trademarked Blue Ivy the following year of her birth in 2012. The couple also shares twins Sir and Rumi but they have kept their youngest from the limelight.
