Matthew McConaughey Got Mad at Trace Adkins for Mispronouncing His Name in a Song (VIDEO)
Country singer Trace Adkins was on 'The Late Late Show' (Weeknights, 12:37AM ET on CBS) to let Craig Ferguson know about something very important. Well, admittedly it isn't the reason he went on 'The Late Late Show,' but does anyone ever really get to the reason they're on Ferguson's show? It's more about non-sequiturs and just having a good time.But things got serious when Ferguson mentioned Matthew McConaughey and stumbled over the pronunciation of it.
"Pronounce his name correctly," Adkins warned. "He gets mad if you don't."
Adkins name-drops McConaughey in the lyrics of his song "Hell, I Can Do That." But in the song, he rhymes "McConaughey" with "movie."
"I didn't have an 'A' rhyme," he explained.
"He's got to lighten up about that," Ferguson said, going into a discussion about how Starbucks gets his name wrong all the time. Adkins couldn't relate, though, as he doesn't frequent Starbucks.
"I just don't like that frou-frou coffee," he said, much to Ferguson's shock.
