Matthew McConaughey recalls mother's advice after 1999 arrest for playing bongos naked

Matthew McConaughey shared memories of his 1999 arrest for playing bongo drums naked and high at his home in Austin. He recalled how his mother, Kay, advised him to hold his head high in front of the media after the incident. During a recent event, McConaughey described the chaotic night when police entered his home. He faced charges of disturbing the peace, possession of marijuana, and resisting arrest, but the charges were later dismissed. McConaughey's mother supported him, saying there was nothing wrong with his actions. He decided to face the media instead of sneaking out, leading to a wave of "BONGO NAKED" T-shirts in Austin shortly after.
