McConaughey's Kindness: Greer's Rom-Com Rise

0:00It's April 20th. Welcome in. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News, today where the headlines shine, powered by AI. Judy Greer hit rock bottom right before shooting the 2001 rom-com, The Wedding Planner, and Matthew McConaughey stepped up like a real life. Hero. She was so broke, she couldn't even cover her $20 valet fee at a fancy New York City hotel for the table red. McConaughey overheard her stressing on a payphone and just handed over the cash to get her car out. Picture this. Early in her career, Greer parks like a newbie at the Roosevelt Hotel, not realizing valet costs add up quick. She's calling her buddy Sean Gunn for help when McConaughey swoops in, mirroring the smooth moves of his character in the movie. Greer felt mortified in the moment, cheeks burning from embarrassment, but she calls him her hero to this day. Back then, she was just grateful to make it through without more drama. Fast forward? And that gig kicked off her rom-com queen status with Flix-like, 13 going on 30 and 27 dresses.
