Variety@VarietyMatthew McConaughey exposed himself to Jimmy Kimmel in the bathroom at the #Emmys when he saw the late night host was upset. “My friend [Cleto Escobedo III] passed away and it was in [In Memoriam tribute] and I started getting choked up and I went to the bathroom. I’m washing my hands and I notice next to me — I mean, right next to me — Matthew McConaughey is at the urinal," Kimmel recalled. "He sees that I’m upset and he’s like, ‘Hey, you OK?’ And I told him what happened and he is again at the urinal, and he turns to me and he gives me a very nice hug — he hugs me very warmly — and I am hugging him for a little while, and I said, ‘Is your penis out?’ And he said, ‘Yes it is. Yes it is.’ And he says, ‘In fact, I’m going to rub it up against you a little bit’... That did lighten the moment considerably and Cleto would have loved that very much.” Woody Harrelson emerged from a bathroom stall and saw the incident: “I never try to grade or critique what other people are doing, and I figured you guys, whatever your thing is, I didn’t want to be the guy to say, ‘No, not in the restroom at the Emmys!’ But I did hear you say that [you were upset] and that’s why afterwards we were all out in the hall and had a group hug. I’m sorry to hear about that.” https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/matthew-mcconaughey-exposed-jimmy-kimmel-emmys-bathroom-woody-harrelson-1236871737/18d
