Alright, alright, alright! Matthew McConaughey and his family are showing up and showing out.
The Academy Award-winning actor and his wife Camila Alves made a rare public appearance as a family for the Mack, Jack & McConaughey Gala in Austin, Texas, on Thursday. They were joined by their three children: Levi, 15; Vida, 14; and Livingston; 11.
Alves stunned in a black off-the-shoulder silhouette while the couple's daughter, Vida, wore a pink flowing dress. McConaughey turned heads in a navy suit while his sons matched in similar-colored suits.
The fundraising gala benefits Mack, Jack & McConaughey, a charitable project from McConaughey, country music singer Jack Ingram and University of North Carolina football coach Mack Brown.

In 2020, McConaughey opened up in his memoir "Greenlights" about how his father's death in his early 20s forced him to grow up, writing that the father who seemed above the law was no longer there to look out for him.
"I did a huge amount of laughing with myself when writing," McConaughey told USA TODAY ahead of the book's release at the time. "I did a huge amount of crying – most of my tears came from being able to go back and feel the love that my family had that my mom and dad had for each other, that they had for us."
Last year, the proud father authored a children's book "Just Because."
"It's about the poetry of life, instead of having the pressure on us that feels like we’re told every day that we need to be absolute about every single thing," McConaughey told USA TODAY of his book. "That's not really life. Life's much more poetic, odd, ironic. Once you admit all these contradictions, life becomes much more of a poem."
