Matthew McConaughey is a proud East Texan. The Longview-area native is quick to mention the Lone Star State in interviews and acceptance speeches. He also starred 15 years ago in a Don't Mess with Texas commercial that you probably have never seen.

Yeah it is a little strange that a newly minted Oscar winner like Matthew McConaughey would be caught dead making television commercials for Lincoln cars. However, it did lead to a series of fake 'SNL' commercials featuring guest host Jim Carrey playing the 'Dallas Buyers Club' and 'True Detective' star, so who are we to complain?

Throughout its colorful history, East Texas has been home to a variety of celebrities, professional athletes and notable characters.

After five years and two kids, Matthew McConaughey is finally putting a ring on it. The ‘Fool’s Gold’ star, 42, announced on Christmas that he proposed to his longtime girlfriend, 28-year-old Brazilian model Camila Alves. Frankly, it’s about time.

East Texas is known for it's rich beauty and hospitable people. From the luscious landscape to it's many glorious lakes, East Texas is a gem!
