on Jul 10, 2024
Beloved actor Matthew McConaughey recently found himself in a sticky situation.
The Hollywood heartthrob was stung by a bee, and judging by his latest Instagram post, it was a close call right near his eye!
In the up-close selfie shared on Wednesday (July 10), you can see McConaughey’s right eye looking painfully swollen shut. The Magic Mike star, however, didn’t seem to let a little bee sting get him down. Despite the painful-looking injury, he managed to flash his signature grin, proving he’s as tough as a Texas cowboy!
Always one for a clever joke, McConaughey captioned his post: “bee swell.” While it gave fans a hint of what happened, it left us buzzing with questions. Is he allergic to bees? What exactly went down?
As expected, McConaughey’s supporters were quick to swarm the comment section with well-wishes and concern. Many were praying for his speedy recovery, hoping he’d be back to his usual charming self in no time.
“Ouch hope you are ok! That looks uncomfortable!”
“Caught a different kind of buzz! Yikes! But impressive you’re still smiling.”
“Ouch! Get some ice on it!”
“Dang it, anyway! Take good care of yourself!”
“Bee careful!!”
True to his laid-back persona, McConaughey seems to be taking this bee sting in stride. And if anyone can turn a bee sting into a buzz-worthy moment, it’s Matthew McConaughey!
