54-year-old actor Matthew McConaughey was joined by his family at a recent gala. Along with his wife, his two sons and daughter, who are rarely seen in the public eye, were photographed beside him and stole the show.
Matthew and Camila McConaughey were all smiles at the gala in Austin, Texas. The gala is part of a joint effort called Mack, Jack & McConaughey (MJ&M), which includes Matthew McConaughey, football coach Mack Brown, and country artist Jack Ingram, to empower kids.
Matthew opted for a classic navy suit paired with a white shirt for the night. While his wife chose an elegant off-shoulder black dress with a sequined bodice.
The couple was also joined by their children — Levi, Vida, and Livingston. The McConaughey boys, Levi and Livingston, were dressed in sharp black suits. While Vida, echoing her mother’s style, wore a pale pink strappy gown.
Seeing the family of 5 smile brightly, many people noticed the same thing in the photos. They pointed out how the three McConaughey kids resemble their father. “…the older son has pretty much the same face as him,” commented a person. “That youngest one seems to have Matthews ’eye sparkle’ in mum’s ’eye shape and color’,” added another.
Michael Jackson’s rarely-seen kids also recently made a public appearance together, see their photos here.

Céline Dion Shares Raw Video of Stiff-Person Syndrome Crisis in Never-Seen Footage from New Documentary
In a devastating moment from “I Am: Céline Dion,” the famous person battles through an unexpected and horrifying SPS episode.
Fans are getting an unheard-of glimpse inside Céline Dion’s tribulations during the last few years of her life.
After being diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome in August 2022, the 56-year-old superstar tentatively but proudly returns to the recording studio in a devastating sequence towards the end of her new documentary, I Am: Céline Dion (available for streaming globally on Prime Video).
Shortly after, as part of her continuous treatment regimen, she makes her way to physical therapy and her foot starts to hurt.
Dion’s body locks up, indicating that she is in severe agony while her care team gives her a diazepam nasal spray during the SPS crisis episode. One of her teammates says, “We’ll do a 9-1-1 if she goes back into a spasm.”
In the movie, Dion subsequently remarks, “Every time something like this happens, it makes you feel so embarrassed.” “I’m not sure how to say it. You know that you dislike losing control of yourself?
The five-time Grammy winner thought back on the horrifying moment that director Irene Taylor’s crew captured on camera during her PEOPLE cover interview.
“Overstimulation—whether it be happiness, sadness, sound, or a surprise—can put me into a crisis—that’s one part of the [SPS] condition,” Dion explains, adding that she “did not see” the crisis episode coming that day. “Before something triggered, I was fine.”
Taylor’s understanding of the condition deepened when she was “two feet away” from Dion during the crisis.
Taylor remarks, “That was really amazing, not just for Céline to go through it, but for me to see as well.” “I continued to film because that is how I work, and I thought we would decide later whether or not to incorporate that into the movie.”
Dion and Taylor had developed a close relationship by the time the movie was in post-production, and according to Taylor, “I knew that putting it in the film was really not a risk because she believed in me at that point.” “I really can only thank her for that because she is an open book, was there, and didn’t hold anything back.”
Dion is attempting to humanize the uncommon illness through the movie and contribute to fund-raising efforts for scientific studies in the pursuit of a solution.
Neuropathy has a very broad spectrum. For this reason, I’m making a lot of effort to raise money so that people can speak with their husbands, friends, or neighbors about it,” Dion explains.
Adds Dr. Amanda Piquet, the doctor who diagnosed Dion and director of the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus’s program on autoimmune neurology: “There are many exciting things in store for SPS, and the future looks bright.”
