AceShowbiz - Anne Hathaway arrived for Matthew McConaughey's birthday party a day late.
The actress is good friends with Matthew, having starred alongside him in movies such as "Interstellar" and upcoming thriller "Serenity (2019)". But when it comes to knowing facts about her pal and co-star, Anne is severely lacking, as Matthew revealed when he appeared on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show".
"My birthday's on the 4th of November, so we were having the party that night," he recalled. "And we noticed that the Hathaways didn't show up. The next day, I woke up and I was still in my robe around 5 P.M. - which was the time the party started the night before - and the door bell rings. I open up the door, and 'Happy Birthday!' it's Anne and Adam (Shulman, Anne's husband) with a bottle of wine, balloons, and a gift."
But ever the gracious host, Matt decided not to tell the pair of their mistake until after they had a glass of wine in their hands.
"She (Anne) tells me, 'You were so nice, you didn't say anything at the gate. You brought us in, opened the wine, poured everyone a glass and then said, 'You do know - my birthday was yesterday!' " Matthew laughed.
Elsewhere in the interview, Matthew opened up about his home life with wife Camila Alves and their three children, Levi, 10, nine-year-old Vida and six-year-old Livingston. While raising three kids has its fair share of ups and downs, the actor and his other half do their utmost to settle any disputes quickly and fairly. However, things are more difficult with Livingston, who prefers to sort out any arguments physically. In fact, Matthew and Camila have indulged their boy's preference by installing a wrestling mat so that he and his dad can fight it out when there's a dispute.
And when Ellen DeGeneres commented "that's not fair!" Matthew hit back, "To me! I'm the one who comes out of it with the bruises!"
