    Elle King messes up Dolly's Birthday
    Jan 29 2024
    McConaughey Melts Hearts with Birthday Homage to "Hot Mamma" Camila On Camila Alves McConaughey's 41st birthday, Matthew McConaughey serenaded his wife with a sweet Instagram post that's pure romance gold. The Oscar-winner shared a sun-kissed photo of them cuddled up, shades on and smiles brighter than the Texas sun. "Exceptional ambiance," he captioned it, adding a playful "#happybrithday hot mamma." But the heartwarming gestures didn't stop there. Matthew also reposted a birthday message from their eldest son, Levi, a sweet ode to his "bomb" mom. "Love you so much and thank you for being the best mom that I could ask for, that we could ask for. Seriously," the 15-year-old wrote, leaving even Matthew impressed: "I made that post when I was 6, it still holds up!" The birthday bash began a day early, with Camila and her mother-in-law, Kay McConaughey, belting out Tina Turner's "What's Love Got to Do with It" in a joyful video. "Don't forget to SING out loud this weekend too!" Camila captioned it, reminding everyone that celebrations aren't just about perfect vocals. McConaughey and Camila's love story is pure Hollywood magic. A chance encounter in 2006, sparks flying across a crowded club, and the rest, as they say, is history. "Since that evening, I have not wanted to spend time with any other woman," Matthew once told PEOPLE, and his birthday tribute proves that flame is still burning bright. This birthday wasn't just about Camila; it was a testament to the love and laughter that fill their beautiful family. With three kids, Levi, Vida, and Livingston, their home is a vibrant, sun-drenched haven. So, cheers to Camila Alves McConaughey, the "hot mamma" whose birthday brought sunshine and heartfelt melodies to the McConaughey clan. May her year be filled with laughter, love, and even more Tina Turner singalongs with her rockstar hubby and adorable family.

Wiki Page Narration

This whole thing was effectively a cold read (in an AI voice?) of an extensive Dolly Parton wiki page. Mistakes in the text, as well as copy+paste formatting errors (such as those surrounding when an & symbol becomes an "amp"), made it into the final narration, along with some jarring audio glitches. Atrocious. Thank God it was free.
