Tony Bennett may have left his heart behind when he left San Francisco but apparently Matthew McConaughey left his pants behind in Kentucky when he left Longbranch Bourbon last year. In a promotional video released for McConaughey’s new spirits endeavor, Pantalones Organic Tequila, the Academy Award winning actor and his wife are featured riding motorcycles au naturel from the waist down.
McConaughey has decided to put boring old bourbon behind and turn his creativity and fortune over to trendier and more fun tequila.
Pantalones – en-plural noun: garment covering the body from the waist downwards (or, in this case, not.)
Matthew McConaughey: “When did tequila stop being tequila?” Camila McConaughey: “Right? Where’s the fun? Pantalones Organic.” Both: “Please, do not keep yours on.”

“The world doesn’t need another celebrity tequila, but tequila sure could use a kick in the pants. Pantalones Organic Tequila is the best thing we’ve made with our pants on,” said the parents of three children Matthew and Camila McConaughey.
